From reading some reviews I am wondering, would this support my 180 pounds with an extra 125 pounds for dips?

I believe the manual said this tower had a maximum of 300lbs weight rating. Given that this is a round tubular design, with the weight you are needing to use, I would go for a more expensive model with rectangular framing. This is just my opinion, as I am 254 and get very minimal movement, only from the foam carpet pads that is underneath the unit.

Well I'm 146 lbs and it supports me fine, also 220 lbs friend played around on it supported her fine. I want to say as long as u make sure u set it up correctly you should be fine ! My sister didn't place her pole on a stud and her cealing ended up denting and she's around the same weight as me . So proper set up is key

Couldn't tell you what the weight capacity is, but I'm 6'2" and 230lbs and have not had any issues with this dip station.

I'm Guessing that should be fine. It seems really sturdy, I weight 180 and it is perfectly fine. But I'm not an engineer

I would not advise it. I used it daily, it seemed fine for awhile but in under a year it collapsed. I weigh just under 180 pounds.

I couldn't answer that. I'm 180 lbs. and have no problem with it holding my weight. Also, I put tools in the tray underneath the seat.

Yes. I have that same rack and those same bars which I use for dips and they're awesome! There's a locking screw on the bars for extra stability but I don't bother because it's just extra time and hassle. There's some wobble without screwing them in but once you're doing dips you don't notice it at all since you're pushing down on the bars which stabilizes them anyway. I've also had guys around 220lbs+ doing dips on them with no worries at all. I would also recommend setting them to the inside of the rack as the rack is very light so as to prevent any chances of tipping over. And when doing dips I would do them facing the other side of the rack because depending on how high you set the bars and how tall you are, you don't want to take the chance of bumping your head into the crossbeam if you can't keep from going straight up and down due to how short the rack is.

I weigh 265 and it easily accommodates me. I would guess that you will be fine!

Yes. Forward facing dips on this 45-degree bench is possible for a 200 lb. man.

I bought this for my 16 year old son who is about 200 lbs. he has not had a problem with it. I can't really say how it would be, but i am about 220 lbs. and it would hold me.

It is my understanding it will support up to 240#. I am 190 and it supports me well and is comfortable.

Mine got extremely wobbly if the ground was even slightly bumpy and no matter how evenly distributed the weight was, if it was carrying more than 15 pounds it would tip over very easily. I wouldn't rely on this for anything over 10-20 pounds.

I imagine they can support anyone waying 185-200lbs. But, that is my opinion. My advise is to check with the manufacturer regarding maxium weight. Marcie

Yes, it will invert to a full 180*, all though you will need the handrails to assist in returning to the upright position. I recommend using a spotter to assure you can safely return to full upright.

It won't tip while doing dips. I have tried it once for fun, and I'm 6'1" 225#.

I weigh 285 and it supported that no problem, however you need to make sure the thing is wide enough for 400 lbs

In a word No. It won't support a 180 lb man -- it is wobbly and unstable. I bought it and returned it to the vendor for a refund (minus the significant shipping costs).
