Product Description Teeter HangUps F5000 III Inversion Table
Amazon.com Product Description If you're plagued by back pain, stiff joints, or suffer from stress overload, consider the Teeter Hang Ups F5000 inversion table, which helps to counter the effects of too much time spent sitting, standing, or moving repetitively. It's also a great way to add extra crunch to exercises like sit-ups. The F5000 is specially engineered to provide a comfortable and secure inversion experience. The equipment features heat-treated, high quality carbon steel and triple-plated chrome. The Teeter Hang Ups F5000 rotates on a pivot system. With simple arm movements (rotation is accomplished by shifting the weight of the arms), the table easily rotates to any comfortable angle. The smooth rotation allows for oscillation and intermittent traction. Adjustable roller hinges allow you to pre-select three levels to control the aggressiveness of rotation, and the tether strap allows you to pre-select the maximum angle of inversion. Comfortable ankle clamps hold you securely while inverting. Additional support can be gained by use of the optional Teeter Hang Ups Gravity Boots. It's able to lock at full 90 degrees inversion (this is only possible when using the more aggressive roller hinge setting). While at 90 degrees, you can perform inverted sit-ups and squats. The table is self-controlled and can be unlocked with simple arm movements. Feature Detail: - Removable, washable nylon mat with triple-stitched seams removes easily for cleaning
- Teflon embedded epoxy-coated roller hinges for guaranteed smooth rotation with no squeaks for the life of the table; patented cam locks ensure proper assembly
- Durable, injection-coated rubber hand grips feature an embossed guide to the angles of inversion
- Adjustable tether strap allows you to preset the tether strap for worry-free inversion to any angle
- Heat treated high quality carbon steel used in key structural components for increased strength and durability
- Curved foam ankle clamps offer a unique design that allows for greater comfort and security while inverted
- Self-locking hinges secure the table bed to the A-frame for improved security and portability
- De-rattler knob reduces shaft movement to allow for quiet, shift-free rotation--the only design on the market to structurally engage the main shaft
- Triple-plated chrome main shaft with steel wall thickness at least 20 percent greater than any main shaft on the market. Features embossed height markers in both inches and centimeters for easy adjustment
- Height capacity: 4'8" to 6'6"
- Weight capacity: 300 pounds
- Assembled dimensions: 45 x 28 x 58 inches
- Folded dimensions: 66 x 28 x 14 inches
The F5000 Inversion Table folds compactly for storage in a closet or in a corner. The nylon mat can be removed for washing. Every table comes with an instructional DVD and laminated owner's manual.

Love it! June 13, 2008 It arrived in perfect condition and was very easy to put together. The unit is very sturdy and comfortable. Four of us use it, ranging from my 6'4" 220 lb. husband to our 5'2" son and it adjusts easily to all our different heights. It feels a little weird the first time, but you'll quickly get used to it. We started out at only about a minute and now go for 4 to 5 minutes each day. Fantastic relief for tight necks and sore lower backs. Even my knees feel looser.
Hang me up June 3, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was thinking to get a bigger bulkier more expensive model, but glad I didnt, this is just fine - light, compact, easy to use, comfortable. DVD is nice and includes assembly instructions (I recommend watching b4 assembly) and has some pointers on how to use for stretching and exercising. What's the opposite of buyer's remorse?
Will It Work For Me June 1, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I'm 65 and have worked a physical job most of my life. I worked on concrete floors anywhere from 4 to 24 hours at a time. My lower back hurt when I leaned over to do any kind of work and my hips were painful, especially my right hip just getting out of bed in the morning. I started going to a chiropractor about 5 years ago and that helped me to continue to work. He also had me do stretches which I continue to do. But I needed more. I wanted to be able to make my back and hips better. The question in my mind was will the Teeter work for me. It works. My lower back feels much better and my hip pain is gone. No pain getting out of bed in the morning anymore. I can even run now. I hang 10 minutes a day. They say to take it easy when you start but I really wanted to stretch my back out and so I inclined even with the lower leg for about 2 weeks. Then I wanted to put more stetch on my back so I unhooked the strap and went to a free hang. That put more weight into the stretch. Its boring hanging there so I do inverted sit ups, obliques,arches and twists. That takes about 5 minutes then I just hang limp and totally relaxed. After 10 minutes, I pump (rock back and forth) about 6 times and thats it. When I first started I got a little dizzy for the first couple of weeks but that has since gone away. This therapy makes perfect sense. I'm in my second month now and I'm only doing it about 4 times a week or more if I'm working. The Teeter is well made and feels very sturdy. The results are unbelievable.
Anything that relieves back pain is worth 5 stars! May 20, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am on the computer 8+ hours per day and experience low back pain every day. It is very rare for me to be able to bend over and pick something up off the ground without at least a little reminder from my back that it hurts. I bought this table after reading TONS of positive reviews and it really has made a big impact. After using it for a few weeks, I can honestly say that I'm picking things up off the ground with 100% no back pain. I truly believe that this table has resolved my back pain. I am a very athletic person in my twenties so I don't mind inverting and sometimes I will do sit-ups while inverted which is VERY challenging.
PROS
1. My back doesn't hurt anymore when I pick things up off the ground.
CONS
1. It kind of hurts your ankles... I used the table for a week and then decided to buy the boots because I had already noticed results from the table. The boots really fixed the ankle pain for me. My roommates didn't complain about ankle pain though so I think it depends on the person.
2. It's going to cost near $400 with the boots.
SUMMARY
If you are like me, the PRO listed above should be repeated 10 times, fixing back pain is practically priceless. Add up the costs to go to a chiropractor and you'll realize that this is a smart investment. (I think it has a 5 year warranty too) You will not regret this purchase and everyone in the household will benefit.
extreme hip pain relief May 18, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Use table every morning so I can walk some. Job requires standing for 8 to 10 hours per day. Sometimes I have to sit down during the day to relieve the pain, so the table helps quite a bit.
