Amazon.com Product Description
Whether you want to reduce back stress or fatigue or stimulate your blood circulation, the Ironman Gravity 4000 inversion table makes a great household accessory. The inversion table contributes to your body's overall health by optimizing lumbar traction, thereby relieving pressure on your vertebrae discs and ligaments. And when your back starts to relax, the rest of your body follows. The table can also help with such areas as increasing body flexibility for improved athletic performance, reducing the effects of aging due to gravity, and relieving lower backaches due to sitting or standing. The Gravity 4000 boasts a durable tubular steel frame, a scratch-resistant powder-coated finish, and a memory-foam-vinyl-covered backrest with a removable lumbar pillow. More importantly, the inversion system is a breeze to use: once you rest your body against the nylon backrest and slip your feet into the ergonomically molded ankle cushions, simply reach your arms over your head. As your arms go up, your body gradually inverts up to 90 degrees. The only inputs are your energy and gravity itself. Users will also appreciate the tough rubber non-skid floor stabilizers, which keep the table stable while you invert, and the extra-long safety handles, which provide an easy return to an upright position. Other details include a height-adjustable frame up to 6 feet 6 inches; support for up to 350 pounds; vinyl safety side covers to protect hands and fingers; three starting inversion angles; and a patented, palm-activated adjusting ratchet ankle locking system. The Gravity 4000, which folds into a compact footprint for easy storage, measures 26 by 65 by 49 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 75 pounds. About Ironman Fitness

Jim,
A great product. I have used after hip surgery. Delivery was quicker than I expected Very easy to assemble.
 Lower back relief July 29, 2010
Evan Kraft (Omaha, NE, US)
I have nothing but good things to say about this device. It works well, was fairly easy to assemble, and is well built. I enjoy using it and feel better when I do. I do have a suggestion for an improvement though in that my wife is short enough that the table rotates all the way to verticle as she is getting into or out of the ankle gripers. This makes it almost impossible for her use the device without someone to help her lock it in place. We placed a block on the ground that lets the table stop before it gets that high so she can lean forward herself. Perhaps they could add a support independent of the height adjusting bar to do this.
Great Value! July 27, 2010
William Rudcki (Franklin, MI)
Minimum Assembly required - Heavy Duty - works great! Lower back feeling better after only two days of use.
Great investment - well worth the money! July 25, 2010
Rasalus
I received my inversion table two months ago. The item was delivered (via Free Super Saver Shipping) 8 days after the order was placed. Item arrived in excellent condition (via UPS). No parts arrived broken. There were some minor nicks in the outer delivery box. My son & I put the unit together in about 45 minutes. Table is simple to assemble, instructions very clear. All parts were present on delivery. Unit is extremely sturdy. Assemble this item in a place where it can stay. It is quite heavy and does not easily fold up for storage. You'll probably mess up your back if you try moving it once assembled. When using the table, the majority of your weight is applied to the top of your foot at the ankle, so a well padded shoe tongue is a help.
I am 55 years old, 6'-4" tall and about 225 lbs. I have had back problems for the past 5 years. There seems to be plenty of headroom at a more vertical position. I would think the unit will work for someone as tall as 6'7" (the adjustment scale goes up to 6'-8" - see pictures above). I have to set my scale to 6'5" to better balance the table for my center of gravity.
My condition/experience:
I have had 2 previous lower back operations. Ruptured disk at L3-L4 and pinched nerve with sciatica down the right leg. The sciatica has been particularly bothersome for the past 6 months. I also had lower back pain and pain in the left hip. The first week I started inverting with socks and sneakers on, but after a few weeks my feet became used to the pressure. Now I am completely comfortable inverting in bare feet. For the first week, I was using the inversion table twice a day at about a 40 deg incline. The back felt a little better so I increased the incline to about 70 degrees for about 15 - 20 minutes twice a day. After the second week my back actually started getting sorer, so I went back to a 40 degree incline for 2-5 minutes at a time. I was doing this once or twice a day. This seems to be all that I need for my back. A quick decompression for a short time works the best for me. My back/hip/sciatica problems have been gradually improving over the past 2 months.
Don't get discouraged if you don't see immediate improvement. Be patient and don't overdo it at the beginning. The very first time I used it, I felt this great feeling of stress release on my back, although the actual pain didn't change much. I have also found the table more comfortable to use without the lumbar pad in place.
The table has been a great investment. It is a quality item well worth the money. I've placed some customer pictures of my unit above. Caution: Do not sneeze while inverted.
 Not the Best or the Worst Inversion Table July 25, 2010
Scott Sheridan (Glencoe Illinois)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Owned for at least 2 years.
Pros: Soft cushion (of course hanging upside down, you're not pressed against the back, so cushion not very important), adjustable for height, belt secures the degree that you could hang, appearance, doesn't wobble when you're on it.
Cons: there are three holes on each side that you could adjust for balancing and angle. But in order to change this, you must take each side apart with a wrench thereby disingaging the arms. You must do both sides at the same time. Otherwise you will not be able to make the adjustments. Also, doing this by yourself is extremely difficult because the table is very heavy. It helps to have an extra set of hands. You must also make sure that the metal clasp is lined up with the holes for the screw and that each hand handle is in its notched out groove. I know it's hard to visualize what I mean, but if you've ever had to make the adjustments, you'd know what I'm talking about--- it's extremely taxing on your body and brain to make the adjustments. I am shocked that no one else brought this up; You can't fold it to get it out of your way. It will have to take up lots of space; My ankles kill me after a few minutes. I've tried ankle wraps, tape, using barefoot, shoes, extra socks, and it doesn't matter -- my ankles hurt regardless. If you get light-headed and queezy easily, an inversion table is not for you.
I have tried various teeter models that friends have, and like them much better.
As far as helping my back goes, it does help somewhat. I have bulging disc in lumber area and major arthritis. I used it for a good while and then stopped because of the pain in my ankles and the queeziness. I am again trying to get used to this inversion table. I'm thinking about a teeter model.. maybe the 950 or other.
