The Teeter Hang Ups EP-950 is in the top tier of inversion tables. It didn’t get there solely by name recognition. It simply offers more, and better, features than most other models on the market.

Those super features start with a rock-solid frame that inspires confidence. There’s nothing worse than starting an inversion session and having to worry about whether the table will tip over or collapse. Some just feel flimsy or unstable. The EP-950 will never generate that feeling.

The feeling it will create is one of confidence because the tubular frame and great materials provide incredible support. That’s evidenced by, among other things, the fact that it will hold individuals up to 300 lbs. That figure isn’t just out of the manual, either; it comes from real users who have actually purchased the EP-950.

Buyers are right to be skeptical about the benefits of an inversion table. A review of the Teeter Hang Ups EP-550 should put most of those doubts to rest. Real-world users overwhelmingly agree it really does help relieve back pain.

The EP-550 is no small, lightweight inversion table. It measures a significant 48 inches wide x 61 inches long x 27 inches high and weighs in a hefty 68 pounds.That means you’re not going to want to move this baby around much, especially if you have back problems. Most will want to find a good spot to use it and leave it there.

The upside to that size and weight is that you can rest assured this table is large enough and meaty enough to stay put. The last thing you want when you’re hanging upside down is to worry about whether your inversion table is going to get inverted unexpectedly. Flipping over when you’re lying on one just couldn’t be any fun.

You’ll have to exert some physical effort to assemble it, as well. If you’re buying it to help alleviate some back troubles you’ll definitely want help putting it together.
