From the manufacturer
Heavy Duty Deluxe Inversion Table
The Innova ITX9600 is a heavy-duty inversion table that comes with many new features that set it apart from other inversion tables. Starting with its large backrest pad and soft touch foam handlebars, it provides a comfortable, easy inversion. But these features are just the basics. The ITX9600’s True Balance System allows each user to find their own unique center of gravity. The Six Angle Pin System allows users to trust that the ITX9600 will easily, safely, and consistently deliver on the finest inversion experience.
True Balance System - Triple Adjustment Structure
Unlike other inversion tables, which only have one adjustable part, the ITX9600’s True Balance System has three adjustable features, to help each individual user find the smoothest and most comfortable inversion experience for them. The True Balance Structure allows users to adjust the headrest, the height, and the footrest to micromanage the center of gravity.
6-Angle Pin System With Protective Cover
The ITX9600 also features a patented protective cover for the easy to adjust six angle pin system. Just position the pin in the desired slope and know that your inversion position will be safe, comfortable, and consistent every time. Old tether strap systems require the user to dismount entirely and climb underneath the table in order to adjust and can loosen after repeated use.

Long Version:
I bought this for my husband as a late Christmas present. He has struggled with back problems for years. I got tired of hearing his daily complaints, and when it started affecting his job and pain was running down his legs, I bribed him with some adult favors (T.M.I?) to finally go and get an MRI. I had a better chance of winning the billion dollar lottery than getting him to go to the doctor, so hey, sometimes you gotta hit below the belt ;) He was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease and acute arthritis in his shoulders and hips. He's 45 and I'm 36.
But enough about us, let's get to the table.
Packaging
The packaging was great and the pieces were secure. No damage or problems whatsoever.
Assembly
The instructions weren't great, but my husband is a carpenter and mechanically inclined and he was able to assemble it quite easily. If it would have just been me, I might have had some issues, but together we had it down. It comes with some wrenches, but if you have your own, it's best to use them. The ones that come with it aren't the greatest and bend easily. We put it together in about 30 mins, could have been a little faster but the kids just had to 'help'. I'm pretty sure it folds up, but I haven't used that feature yet . We use it every day, sometimes twice a day, so we haven't need to fold it up.
The Inversion Table
First impressions of the table are wonderful. The table was sturdy and I didn't feel any discomfort or safety issues using it. My husband LOVES it. He said it's done wonders for his back and I can tell. Before I purchased it, he could barely move at times. His legs would give out randomly and sometimes he'd wince and just sit on the ground in pain. (He was a little more dramatic than that but he may read this.) I was hesitant to get the table at first because he has high blood pressure and I've heard that you shouldn't use these if you have high blood pressure. And his BP is crazy high, many times both numbers are 3 digits. He always blamed his high blood pressure on his high pain level. So, we've been using it together and we've been going slow. (Please take it slow if you have high blood pressure. It still works.) The available inversion increments are 20, 40, 60, and 80. We haven't gone past 20 yet. Even at the lowest level he's seen amazing results. We started using it 2 minutes at a time for a couple of weeks and even though I don't have back problems (knock on wood), I feel great after a couple of minutes on it too. It's so relaxing. He's 6 ft tall and I'm 5'8 and I usually don't adjust it from his level and it feels fine for me. I've read a lot of complaints about the feet and ankle holds on inversion tables, but since we haven't gone past 20, we haven't had any problems, but if we ever make it to 80 I'll update. We are now using it at 4 minutes each still at the lowest increment and we are both loving the results. We'll move up to 40 soon for 2 minutes and continue to slowly increase our incline. Between using this table and a Turmeric supplement, my husband is 90% pain free and his BP is finally normal.
Bottom line:
Great price, great results, fast shipping, love love love it. To quote my husband, "I wish I would have got this 20 years ago."
This one had good reviews and the price was right. I received it a day earlier than expected. It was packaged sufficient and there was no damage to the table. I unpacked it and layed everything out. It appeared as if I had all the parts. The instructions were concise and the screws were packaged in a piece of cardboard with the steps labeled and pictures of the screws with the numbers. It made it very easy to pick the exact bolt or screws needed for each step. I put it together by myself, except for one step where I needed help, and it took me about 45 minutes. The tools were Included which was nice but they are cheap throw away tools so if you want to go faster then use your own tools.
The step I needed help with was when attaching the backrest. I needed a second pair of hands to help me slide it up into the brackets and hold it in position while I screwed in the bolts.
It is well made and easy to put together. I was using it within one hour of unboxing it.
It took some fiddling to find the best settings. You cannot go by the height markings. If you don’t first find the center of balance it will take some upper body and core strength to get back into an upright position. The easiest way to do this is to adjust the height to a position where your hips are in alignment with the pivot point. Get in, lock the ankles down and lean back. You want the pivot motion to be slow and steady and you want the table to basically stop pivoting when it reaches horizontal. When this happens you know your center of gravity and the height adjustment is correct. If the center of gravity is correct then inverting will require just a little bit of help from that position and returning upright will also be much easier. Trust me, get this right and it will be a much more pleasurable experience. You don’t want it to invert and slam to the stop nor do you want it to slam into position when you return to the upright position. Plus it’s really nice to go back to neutral (horizontal) and lay there for a bit to let the blood in your head return to your body.
I had to adjust the back to the highest position and my head is still at the edge. I think it is because the pads for the back of the ankle are too high and when I invert I slide down a little. That is the only reason I am giving this table four stars instead of five. I really don’t like the position of the ankle pads and grips. I feel they are just a little high in relation to the step where you put your feet.
All in all, for the cost you cannot go wrong with this table.

Package came in 2 days, on time via Prime, however I wasn't home so I received a notice it went to my local post office. The box is heavy and requires either 2 people or a cart to move it. The post office lent me their dolly and I transported the package to my van no problem. The package had some torn corners (due to it's weight and being swiveled on concrete to move it) but the packaging was very heavy duty and I could tell there would be no damage to the inside items.
Upon opening the box, I was at first startled by how many pieces there were in it! (see photo) I thought it was going to take a lot of assembly, BUT, once I took out each piece it was actually very few pieces, it just looked that way in the box. Everything was well wrapped and protected. It came with all the nuts and bolts packaged very clearly in a step-by-step order. They also supply all the tools needed to do the assembly including 2 wrenches, hex wrench and phillips screwdriver. The assembly manual was very clear as well.
Assembly: I would say one person could assemble it on their own, but for the very first stage of assembly, I had my son hold up one of the heavy steel legs as it was hard to hold it and bolt it at the same time.
NOTE: the 2 wrenches supplied are stamped steel and both are needed - one to hold the bolts, the other to tighten the nuts. There is some pretty heavy torque need to turn these nuts and about half-way through the assembly one of the wrenches 'stripped', meaning it bent under the pressure and could not hold the nut tight enough. (watch your knuckles!) So I had to use my own crescent wrench for the rest of the assembly.
Quality: Everything is very good quality with powder coasted steel and a good solid tilting board. It makes you wonder how they make these things at such a low cost. It has to be volume.
NOTE: I did find one of the handle bars came with a slight tear in the foam. I don't think I did that because I was very careful with my knife when unpack-aging it. It happens to be in a place where I will be grabbing the foam a lot so the tear will potentially get bigger over time. We shall see.
Use: The foot holders are adjustable and I was able to find a setting that held my feet in, but I'll need to play with it as it isn't that comfortable as I'd like when hanging upside down. I also was able to set it all to fit my 9 year old son (who of course HAD to try it).
The tilt is very smooth and my centre of gravity was almost perfect. I am 5'9" and didn't need to adjust the headrest.
I find it works very well and even though it only tilts to 85 degrees (not fully straight up and down), it doesn't need to, as I found that angle made me fully extended and supported. I imagine if you take out and over-ride the pin that determines what angle you want, you could hang straight up and down.
Wow - does it ever feel good to let out all the stress and just relax my back on this thing. I'll have to get used to the blood going to my head so I have only been doing about a minute or two at a time.
I would recommend this product as it is good quality at a great price.

Reviewed in Mexico on December 28, 2023
In fact, so impressed was I that for years I sold these tables through the wellness centre I owned and received a constant stream of positive feedback re. customers' back pain. Then in 2014, I was diagnosed with late-stage glaucoma, rapidly losing my vision. I had to stop inverting immediately and reluctantly sold my table. My weak vertebrae continued to fracture and back pain became a constant companion again, so severe I could stand up for only a few minutes after 2 fractures in Oct. ‘18. (I don’t use pain medications due to multiple/unpredictable reactions.)
After numerous eye surgeries, to my delight my surgeon deemed it safe for me to invert again. I found that the expensive model I’d owned before had replaced its mesh backing with a very hard surface I found far too painful.
So I took a chance and ordered the much cheaper Innova.
At first, there was a lot of gentle crunching and cracking with the gentle, natural traction as my spine readjusted and decompressed. I like the padded back and the added feature that allows one to choose the max. angle desired and work up to complete inversion. I have been inverting daily now for only 2 weeks (2x/day, the 2nd usually right before bed) and already the pain is diminishing dramatically, my posture is vastly improved, and I optimistically expect to experience freedom from pain again, as in the past.
I am thrilled with and grateful for the Innova inversion table. No fancy “new & improved” bells and whistles – just a simple, solid, very effective and affordable piece of health equipment
