Never used one of these, but would like to try. My concern is that the space where you stand might be too confining -- do you have enough room in it?

I use the bar for shrugs, squats and deadlifts. There is enough room, not a ton but enough. I'm 6'2" If you have them on stands for trap work it can be a pain to step into.

There are definitely no issues doing shrugs. I am 6'1" & don't have any issues bent down near the floor doing dead lifts. I had the same concern before I bought the bar, but it works for me. I love this bar!

There is definitely enough space to "sit in" even if you use a wide stance. However, using the bar is definitely different compared to the standard one when doing deadlifts. I would practice doing some deadlifts with kettlebells first in order to get used to pulling the weight from the side. Hope this helps...

Yes you can but it will only stand about waste high at the tallest point (I am 5' 9"). I found it works well between two chairs. I also have it open all the way so it is flat, tighten the knobs to keep it like that, and then prop it against a wall /| &lt;--- Like that. Works much better and uses less space.

Yes, I believe you could... It would be a little cumbersome, but it could be... You may want to double check the measurements to see if it is appropriate for your needs. It is the perfect size for me......

It will probably overwhelm the space. It's a cute product but we bought ours for a kids bedroom and ended up not using it because it was too big. Can't return it because my child tore the box apart and spouse recycled the box. Good luck!

Sorry; I never did use it because I had difficulty adjusting it in the tight space allowed by my counter space.

I tried it with a case and it doesn't fit. There really isn't that much room to spare.

I believe I read in the owners manual...the unit required only about 2 inches all around (sides, back..etc) check the manual..If you have enough spacing all around ... you should be ok.

Yes, but it will lwt you an empty space. The width fits, but you will need another thing to hide the space and fits the height.

Hello! I bought this unit because I didn't want to use any floor space in my garage as with the tripod units. When fastening my hybrid commuter bike to the clamp, I had limited space behind the bike for adjusting and working. Also, my handlebars almost touched the wall. If I had to buy one again, I would get a freestanding unit.

I made sure I had plenty of room on the sides. I would say get a more narrow one- maybe 10" if you are able. Good luck :)

Jeff, you should have plenty of room under there. I don't have the stand right in front of me, but there is plenty of room under each section. Enjoy!

Hi again. Just read the other comments and remembered that my daughter chose not to use the arm (because of lack of space). I agree that the weight would probably be too much for this stand if you put it out too far.

Yes, there is enough space. HOWEVER, you will not be able to fully retract the mechanism and make it flush to the wall. It will have to stand out a bit.

I have not done it, but from the looks of it I don't see what not. One thing to note, you should not use this for heavy items as it will sag in the back. The only support is in front.

I feel like it would work great for that purpose. It is surprisingly roomy and secure. You may wish to add a light.

I have not tried it, but looking at the stand, you might, but it looks to be unstable. If you put a wood board shelf, cut a bit wider than the base, it would all you strong shelf to stack the other shelf on top and offer space to stack equipment on.

This model would not be good for that purpose. It has a little wiggle room but not what you are looking for
