Is the hex bar protected in cardboard from shipping damage or just taped like the Cap Bar and easily damaged?

I purchased this back in March, 2014 and if I recall, it was shipped in a cardboard box and was wrapped in plastic. It was in perfect condition when it arrived and is still in excellent shape.

The raised bars are protected by cardboard. All in all I was pleasantly surprised how well - protected the bar was.

Yes, the bar is well protected, packaging exceeded my expectations. My bar was double boxed with padding in all the right places. Upon delivery, the were no signs of damage the to the outer cardboard.

The bar is packaged and shipped in two pieces; the "body" and the "top" in heavy cardboard. Have no idea if shipped internationally, that the bar would be undamaged.

The bar was packaged properly when I received it and there were no problems. But if I were shipping it internationally, I would like to have the packagingreinforced because of the distance involved and the extra handling. I hope this helps.

As I'm simply not in a position to guarantee you the quality of the shipping, personally I wouldn't take a risk. Bar is truly amazing; it didn't arrive however in well secured box. My bar came with no damages nor any scratches

I use a post-it note as a buffer between the foam and the door frame. Works like a charm, no black marks or damaged paint. There is a little bit of wear and tear to the frame, but only YOU will notice. Thats been the case for me. I've had the bar for 3 years with almost weekly use.

Hi, it was shipped in a cardboard tube that was very strong and there was no problem with the item.

I got this a few months back, but I recall the packaging being a small cardstock-type box. The box itself was designed in a way that gave the bulb some support. Then there's the bubblewrap and whatever else Amazon uses for shipping. The bulb itself is fairly rugged (no filament for one), so if it does turn up broken, something seriously went wrong on the way to your house. At that point you can always talk to customer support here.

Mine came in a cardboard box but I don't remember if it was suitable for storage. As soon as I received it, I start wrapping so there was none left for storage.

We bought this for a gift in dec. 2012. At that time it was boxed in a carton.?once we opened it the entire unit was bound with heavy duty plastic strips. I don't think the item would get damaged, but I would try calling the company since this was my experience a year ago. Good luck!

Basically you get it in a plain cardboard box. It isn't going to have any fancy plastic or labeling on it at all. Still the same product inside though.

There's a piece of metallic tape that covers the sealing bar. It looks like packaging material, so it's very tempting to remove it. It needs to remain in place

It came safety sealed in a box. (No plastic wrap; the box was glued shut instead). Hope this helps!

the outside is all plastic. and the shipping box is exactly the same size as the safe so there is absolutely no packaging material around the safe inside the cardboard box. ours came badly dented in one corner where someone obviously dropped it. be prepared to send at least one back and make sure you are there to inspect the package when it arrives so you can just refuse delivery and save yourself a lot of hassles.

I just got mine today. The Backrest Board has a small tear above the embroidered company logo which was sealed with heat-glue. I am going to contact the Manufacturer tomorrow to have it replaced. There were scratches and scuff marks towards the top of both (left and right) upright beams where a person would set a barbell; It's possible someone owned this before me and returned it. I was impressed with the packaging; Everything came in its own plastic bag; But perhaps thicker plastic would do a better job (if the scratches and scuffs were from transport). Everything 'else' looks brand new.

When mine was shipped, it as shipped in a box just a tad bigger then the items box. Making it to where it didnt move to much. Neither of the two I ordered were damaged.

This bar IS hollow. It is chrome plated steel with a knurled grip. Shipping weight is always more than product weight and may be rounded up.

I did not have any issues with packaging or damage. I'll try and post a picture if the packaged product.
