Looking to buy one of these that can do:
-dips
-chin up/pull up
-leg raises
-bonus: bottom push up bars
Fitness depot has it for $400, anyone know any other places to get it for a good price? Does any one have one currently? Thoughts on a similar station?

You can get over the door chin up with ab straps for $35 at winners?
Doesn't solve dips though.

Those ones get real sketchy once you start adding weights in. I'd rather get a solid stand alone one.

I bought the Apex power tower from Canadian Tire. It has the chinup bar, leg raises, dips, pushup bars. I have the previous gen one which was about $300.
The new Apex power tower has a lot less metal (and doesn't look as sturdy) but is only $200 and I think I've seen them on sale for around $150.
The one I have looks like this but there are a lot of brands that have the same design:

In the end I think you get what you pay for. This one works for me, but there's a bit more flex in the frame than the commercial quality ones at the gym. I find it is more difficult to do pullups with the flex - my experience is that 10 with flex is about the same as 12 without flex.
