Vague Instructions
I received the Big Bar Plus as a gift from my wife that I recommended because I have purchased other base block products that were the bomb. com. I was not happy with the instructions that came with the product because they were vaguely ambiguous to say the least. I suggest labels for the pieces to facilitate following the instructions.

My Big Bar Pro review
I have just started using this in the garage, 2 days ago. I do hanging exercises. I added bricks below to make the bar taller and it's pretty stable. This is a fairly good product. However, the top bar is rugged and uncomfortable for my hands. It may cause me calluses. Is there an option to switch to a more smooth bar on top? For example, a bar similar to the colored bars at the park or the handle bars on public transits?

I'm beyond delighted with my Nordic plus! Sturdy yet minimalist, it's a phenomenal addition to my gym regimen. I feel I'll be able to progress towards my goals efficiently. Fantastic job, Baseblocks!

Good product, disappointed shipping promises.
I think this is a fine product, however, I was really disappointed in the shipping. They advertise "same day dispatch if ordered before 12 noon", which I tried to take advantage of. I send my order before 9am on a Thursday and they didn't actually dispatch it until Satuday evening. I know that sounds miniscule, and I obviously didn't expect Amazon-level time-frame of delivery, AND I know it's the holidays, but don't advertise that if you actually can't fulfill it. It was a gift and it came much later than I had hoped.

Beware of Low Bar Setting
I like how stable and compact the bar is. It’s thick, so you’d have to get used to gripping it. Building it and getting everything to match up for the screws was a hassle. Also, I was excited to see that it had a low bar setting as well. However, I tried it and now my U bar is literally stuck, and I can’t get it out of the T-Stands. I’m starting to have regrets.

Amazing customer service and fantastic products
I made a mistake when I ordered my B-Bars and sent them to the wrong address. I emailed the support team on a Saturday and they replied almost immediately to help fix the problem with no issues! Very happy with the B-Bars. I have a few other items and have always been very pleased!

Just wish the customer service
Just wish the customer service line was more responsive and had more thorough communication, I had a issue resolved and it felt like I was fighting the whole time to get some help from the person I was talking to lol.

Nice work out set
Very easy to put together and will do the trick. The only issue I have is the bar is much thicker than any pull up bar I’ve used. So it will take time to adjust and get my rep count up. Would be nice to have smaller bar size options but other than that it’s a really nice set up.

Something very close to my heart
I've been doing calisthenics for about 4 years now. . . These were a huge win for me to get, really grateful. So the height is great compared with other dip bars, you can actually do pull ups on these (with your legs bent or tucked in). With that said, they are very easy to set up. I'm not a welding engineer, but the welding on the "T" bars is very well done meaning they will likely last a good time. The texture of the bars are great, and the thickness is definitely great for those with bigger hands or if you want to strengthen your grip. All in all, they are great. But will they make your physique look great? That's where you have to step in with great discipline and definitely an obsession with the product themselves.

Awesome but not compact for travel
I purchased the original basebar. It was left behind my old apartment and my current purchase is missing. All I can say is this is the best pull-up bar ever out there. One thing I could suggest is they make the perfect bar that is compact for travel with simple physics and minimal tools. If it could get compressed so small I would say its the perfect bar out there.

Stringblocks
The new strong blocks have thicker handles and are more stable during handstand work. Great upgrade.

Great pull-up bar
Simple and sturdy. I like the fat bar. It is perfect for a suicide grip, and the metal is textured just enough to neither feel pain nor slip off the bar.

A touch overpriced
The delivery time was exceptional but the quality of the product is below what I would expect for the price. It will do the job as advertised, though the sturdiness of the design is not what I had hoped after using several other bars (the leg extensions in particular have too much wiggle room).

product TOP quality BUT....
...but no mentioning of import fee of over £60.00 when ordered online. Product came from abroad and wouldn't deliver unless I paid that amount.

Simple effective Health
Simple and effective! The bar is a bit wide, but that will just lead to better gripp strength.

Terrible setup directions
Attempting to put my order together now and the directions are horrible. Nothing is labeled! Have no idea what screws go to what parts.
