It looks like these are specifically for ‘decompression’. Does that mean that I should not purchase one with the intent to do inverted crunches?

On Amazon’s product page for this item it shows pictures of the woman doing inverted crunches and mentions using this for exercise and stretches in the description. You should be good to go if you want to use this to work out with.

Does anyone know the shipping box dimensions? That is very important because I cannot receive over-sized boxes

I can’t tell you the exact dimensions, but I can tell you it’s at least 4’ long. And heavy.

Is this intended to be used “unsupervised”? can one become trapped in an inverted position unable to get off of the table?

I’ve had a teeter like this one, for years. It’s great and definitely helps me relax my back. I typically use my tablet to read e-mail/web browse while on it. It’s very safe for me to use unattended. The way you adjust the leg brace is determined by your height. That alters the pivot point such that it takes no more effort than gripping a railing to push/pull yourself to/from the inverted position. There’s also a strap that controls just how far toward vertical you can tilt it. I don’t tilt mine completely vertical, instead I have the strap set to limit it to about 60 degrees, which is perfect for my needs. You could do crunches on it but I’d venture there are better ways to accomplish that than using an inversion table like this.

You use your bodyweight (and arms) to return you to an upright position. Having had one of these gadgets for nearly 10 years, I would say that unless the locking mechanism that hold the ankles in place breaks, it’s extremely unlikely to get trapped in the machine.

I am told that the blemishes are very minor aesthetic imperfections that do not detract from the functionality in any way.

I’m willing to give it a try. Slipped discs in my back in July, still trying to get rid of all symptoms after PT.

16

I got this from the recent woot offer. The unit was in good condition, though 2 bolts were missing from one of the preassembled sections (resolved quickly with a email to Teeter).

No complaints here, although I’ve already stopped using it for now (yes, I saw the garage sale comment).

For me, coming out of inversion is a great way to bring about vertigo. I used a 30 degree inversion for about three minutes, followed by 30 seconds of flat orientation, before coming up. At that point vertigo began, and disengaging the ankle lock required the assistance of others. A queasy, semi-nauseous state continued until I woke the next morning.

If you are prone to dizziness, I’d recommend you find a way to try one of these before buying. I’ll try again “one of these days”, but if 30 degrees was enough to disorient me, I’m not sure this device was for me.

17

Note of caution: I have back problems and inversion made it worse, not better.

If you have back problems, inversion might work for you but proceed with caution. Do some research first.

I bought this exact product about six months ago. It is awesome for inverted crunches. Just wear good socks and maybe even sweat pants to minimize ankle discomfort. I also do inverted squats. Wow! I got that idea from the DVD included. This Teeter is definitely worth the money.

I bought this one and it is fantastic:Inversion Table

Very sturdy, heavy duty, nice balance etc. They do tend to come delivered with the box torn up, but mine was fine.

I second the vertigo problem. But luckily I only got it once in 6 months. What I do to control it is come up slowly.
