What we liked

  • + Solid beech handles are described as naturally non-slip and smooth, with a 1.57 inch diameter.
  • + Fully welded steel brackets and a 660 lb rating suggest a rigid frame with little wobble.
  • + Rotating rubber foot pads let you level the stand on uneven floors, and a screwdriver is included.

Trade-offs

  • - A 17 inch base and 12.8 inch height is a larger footprint than low mini parallettes for storage.
  • - Wood handles can show wear from chalk and sweat over time, and the listing does not mention a finish.
