TRUE CONFESSIONS OF AN ELASTIC EXERCISER November 4, 2008 I must confess!! Gotta get this off my chest to someone!!! My motives were undeniably unpure,and here's how & why
I bought a pair of Thera-Band Door Anchors (probably would have swiped them if the opportunity had arisen)not only as an execise aid, but more importatntly to see how they worked. You see I wanted to make some for my own use. "I can do this better & cheaper" said I to me. Upon seeing the bands, reality reared it's pragmatic head. Nyet!! Cannot do!!! Why? Because these Door-Anchors are the model of brilliant simplicity.
They function perfectly,holding securley in the door slot; can be easily adjusted up & down to provide the proper angle of pull for each exercise; and they allow the quick changing of band strengths without removing the anchor from the door
And when you're done just slip them on out of the slot & put them away, or leave them in the door ready to go the next time.
Nothing could be easier. And I figerred it all out without readin' no darned instructions.
So when you,(as I ), think you can find a simpler, better way to quickly and easily set up an excercise station, think no further, waste no more energy in your effort to expend some. Simply & brilliantly purchase these Thera-Band Door Anchors.

Perfect May 4, 2008 For the price....this thing is priceless. Simple yet effective and a must for those using Resistance Bands (I bought mine to coincide with the P90X workout DVDs).
I've been using mine for a month now and there are no signs of wear and tear...on both this door anchor or the bands I use it on (some door anchors supposedly damage the bands very easily).
simple but effective April 27, 2008 I got this for physical therapy on my shoulder which I dislocated kayaking. Ordered this product regular shipping and got it quick, three days I think. Very simple design but works well. Very easy excercise tool to travel with.
CHEWS UP THERA-BANDS August 9, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is a very effective tool for using the thera-band while it is wedged between the passage way door and the door jamb. HOWEVER, the portion of the door anchor through which the thera-band is weaved to keep the thera-band from slipping off the door anchor has a problem: it chews up the thera-bands. As the thera-band is stretched while being used, the thera-band rubs back and forth across the rough end of the door anchor. The rubbing causes the thera-band to break after only two workouts. THE SOLUTION is to take some soft material and wrap it around the end of the thera-band before the thera-band is woven through the rough end. When the wrapped thera-band is stretched during the exercises, the thera-band rubs against the soft cloth and not the rough end. So far this has eliminated the tearing of the thera-band.
great anchor for the theraband July 6, 2007 I like how easy it is to set it up. It does not scratch the door to which it is attached.
