I have purchased power pushup 3 from lifeline two times.
First time I bought it, it was christmas ti me of 2009. I liked it a lot since I was looking for a way to overload my chest muscle at home with minimal equipments.
It was challenging for me and I could bench press 315 lbs 3 times at gym. After about 3 months, handles, which are made from rubber, started tearing. You see, their bands are good quality product.
But the handles couldn't withstand all that resistance from pushing so they went. Since I liked it so much, I bought another one thinking maybe, I did something wrong to cause the tear on the handles. Well, after 2 month of use, same thing happened. I sent an email to the company directly and complained. They said to take a picture of torn handles and send it back.
Done and THAT WAS 6 MONTH AGO!! I was asking if they sell handles separately at all. No response. I heard lifeline was a reputable company.
MAybe it's just me with bad experience or I heard it wrong. If you are going to put average bands ( purple bands that come with power push up 3 or one step up, which is red bands ), don't get surprised when the handles suddenly tear.
