This is exactly what I was hoping it would be. I keep it in my bedroom and slide it under the bed after using it. Love the fact that I can wake up and get a few exercises done before heading to work, in about five minutes. I'll typically pull it back out when I get home and do the same thing. A couple weeks ago threw it in the car and took it on a trip to use in the hotel room (just the bar, not the whole thing).
Have only had it for a month but seems pretty durable and easy to configure for different types of exercise. I mostly do squats, shoulder raises, curls, and bench/row. I used to go to LA Fitness and do the standard bench, squat, row type of workouts but ultimately it was taking up too much of my time, and I'm not so much into gaining "bulk" muscle mass anymore. I quit the gym and was mostly just jogging and doing pull-ups wherever I could find a bar. That was nice but I lost too much muscle after a while, so this has allowed me to gain that muscle back and continue to maintain my strength and flexibility without having to spend so much time in the gym process (getting ready, driving, locker room, lift, shower, etc).
I'd recommend it to anyone who wants an easy reason to work out, mobility, flexibility, or strength maintenance, but not necessarily for people looking to gain bulk muscle mass.
