Amazon.com Product Description
Efficiently strengthen and tone your upper body and core muscles with this pair of Harbinger padded-handle push-up bars. The delta-shaped bars sit flat against the floor as you perform push-ups, creating a stable training platform and evenly distributing the weight between your hands. Handle push-ups are especially ideal for people who want to strengthen their core, as they make it very hard to "cheat" by compensating with other muscle groups. Specific details include a polyethylene construction, padded foam grips, and nonskid rubber pads for traction during use. Also great for reverse push-ups, each handle push-up bar can support up to 350 pounds of load weight.

Please try to stay away from these!!!!!
By J. Choudhry
I bought these to give me greater range of motion on pushups. While they work alrite for normal pushups they are an absolute failure on almost any other type of pushup modification. Using it for wide stance you risk breaking your wrists because the flimsy design easily causes them to roll over. Close grip pushups lead to the same result. The plastic material is extremely flimsy and the handle itself seems like it can break at any time.
Though i havent tested them the tko bars seem better because they seem to have more balance. DOn't be fooled and lured in by the price because these handles aren't worth it. I've completely stopped using them and they are laying around as a useless piece of junk.

Harbringer Push-Up Bar
By Joseph Stateson
I really enjoy using Harbringer products. They are usually made of good quality materials, last a long time and really look good.
Pros: Product looks great as always, Very sturdy, and comfortable to use.
I feel no wrist strain while using these.
I'm able to get more of a workout since I can dip down further, unlike normal pushups.
Easy to grip, and the underneath side has 3 rubber stoppers to help reduce slidding.
Cons: None.
Other: Noticable paint skuffs/markings. At first I thought it had a crack or two, but its just the way the paint looks. Even on the Cover of the Box it comes in, you can see it has the same markings. Which is weird, usually harbringer would do a better job on the paint quality.

A little disappointed
By JPanepinto
I am currently attempting to complete P90X and bought these push-up bars after reading a few reviews. I am disappointed with them in two areas. One, they are not nearly as comfortable as I would have thought. When using them they dig into the heal of my hand. These are the first push-up bars I've ever used, so maybe this is normal, but the handle is not completely round and so has a corner (all be it not a sharp one) that can dig into one's palm. Two, when using them in a wide push-up position, they have rolled on me. The base is not wide enough to adequately stabilize wide push-ups. I don't use them for this particular exercise any more. However, I do use them for standard and military push-ups. It is still nicer to use these than to use the floor. More range of motion and not nearly as much stress on my wrists.
