    The product, in the report: Tower 200 - Body By Jake - Resistance Training Equipment

    I was using the Tower 200 - Body by Jake when the equipment came free from the door and stuck me in the mouth. This cause extensive damaged to my teeth and gums. In total, there is damage to 9 of my teeth... 3 of which will most like need to be removed and replaced. I’ve spent hours/days in the dentist chair and will need continued work until all the damage can be corrected. This was very dramatic event for me and want to file this incident/safety concern with you.

    The events that occurred... that I can remember (due to a high force impact) are:

    I was trying to adjust (per instructions) the piece of equipment by raising the two locking mechanisms at the top. It was at this point when the equipment came off the door and stuck me in the mouth.

    The Tower 200 was attached to a regular bedroom door. The top piece was placed over the top of the door and the bottom piece under the door. The door was shut when I was using the Tower 200 and closed when I went to adjust the tension on the equipment.

    My safety concern is that there is nothing permanently attaching the Tower 200 to the door other than the tension of the bands. It was the tension of the bands that caused the great force of impact into my mouth. I strongly feel that if there was a permanment device securing the Tower 200 to the door this incident would have been avoided.

    I can only assume that the door had came open allowing the Tower 200 top piece to come off the top of the door and sticking me in the mouth. if the Tower 200 had a permanent device securing it to the door, it could not come off the door whether it was opened or closed.

    Thank you, [REDACTED]
