Purchased the One Touch Curve Gravity Inversion Table last week - received it promptly in 2 days (even with bad weather in transit route - snow/ice). It was very well packaged to withstand shipping dings. The assembly instructions were clear and easy to follow. All parts were there and in perfect condition and it included the tools needed for assembly. As a mid-age female with a bad back, I had no issues assembling this by myself and it was unboxed, assembled and ready to use in about two hours. An extra set of hands would have helped and made it go faster but I took my time, followed the directions, and it went fine even without assistance. The seller also included a free yoga ball with foot pump as an added bonus - it was pictured on Amazon as yellow but the ball in the box was a bright blue and looks great. I have not actually pumped it up and used it yet.
I've just used the inversion table a few times over the past couple of days and it works perfectly. It snowed here and I used it before and after shoveling and noticed a difference in my back - less strain/pain/achy - (hubby was away so I had to shovel which is an activity I've largely avoided for several years due to back issues). My children (mid-twenties) visited today and tried it out and are planning to order the same unit. For $109. 00 plus shipping, this is the Inversion Table to buy if you've been putting it off forever like I did. I had a Doc tell me to do this years ago and I couldn't decide on what to buy, whether price really made a quality difference. The only regret I have now is that I didn't do it sooner as I have spent THOUSANDS on physical therapy, chiropractic, message, electric stim, cortisone injections, and other treatments in the meantime. As for the quality - I'm very picky and very risk adverse, so I wanted sturdy, safe, and well made at a good value. This is it! It is very sturdy, well made and safe at the best price going....a quick online comparison will demonstrate that. There is no need to spend $500, $400, $300, even $200 for other name brand models like Teeter, Weider, et al. This one does the same exact thing they do with the same quality but at a much better price. The seller charged a reasonable price to ship 2-day delivery and included the ball and pump. I searched for years to finally make this purchased...yeah, I know, how pathetic is that! BUT hopefully this review will help you take a $109 chance to help yourself.
The instruction booklet is accurate and helpful (instructions for use and assembly are both included in a little booklet). As for the unit itself, it is sturdy but moveable for a petite older female in not the best condition due to the back issues. I keep it next to the wall and pull it away from the wall for use without any issue or discomfort. The back and head pads are comfortable. The handles are a must and are made of a good material for griping while going back or coming back up from the inverted position. Unless you're in very good physical condition to begin with, I would not recommend inversion tables without handles (though going back is easier with arms over head, to come back up slowly to allow the blood to flow back from the head, it's helpful to have the handles). The ankle supports are sturdy and cushioned for comfort. And it is fully adjustable to accommodate different heights. We quickly adjusted the height from 5'2 set for me, to 6'1 for my son, to 5'3 for his girlfriend, back to 6'1 for my son because he loved it so much, back to the setting for me so quickly, easily and securely. I just can't see how anyone could go wrong with this unit. I tried out the $399 Teeter Hang up at the local fitness store and I just cannot tell the difference in functionality, safety, sturdiness, or quality...just in the extra cost!
Only time will tell if this is THE solution I've been looking for to fix my back issues but so far, so good. The initial days of use is getting used to being upside, remembering to just relax, breathe, unwind and refresh. I am very pleased with this purchase.

I read reviews on Amazon and found this item. What sold me was the comments about having easy to read directions. I use it almost daily and love it! I drive 1 1/2 hours to work each way and coming home to a good stretch on this makes my day complete. Just start slowly and use the safety strap for a while.
