What each maker lists
| Table | Listed weight capacity | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Teeter FitSpine X3, LX9, X1, EP-560 | 300 lb | Teeter product pages |
| Innova ITX9600, ITX9800 | 300 lb | Innova product pages |
| Innova ITX1200 | 350 lb | Innova product page |
| Teeter DEX II | 350 lb ("commercial-grade, rated 350 lb") | Teeter product page |
The Innova ITX1200 is the one classic ankle-hold table in our set above 300 lb. It carries a one-year limited warranty, and its height range tops out at 6 ft 6 in like the others.
The DEX II is not a like-for-like swap
Teeter describes the DEX II as a hip-supported, forward-rotating inversion and core training system. You do not hang by the ankles. Its page does not say whether it folds, so check the dimensions and storage before you buy. We have not written a review of it because we could not verify enough from the maker.
If you are close to a limit
- Treat the weight capacity as a ceiling, not a target, and leave margin.
- Check your height against the maker's range as well. See tall people.
- A weight limit says nothing about whether inversion is right for you. Ask a doctor first.
- Compare the other specs, such as warranty and how you set the angle, in how to choose an inversion table.
What we could not verify
Some other brands advertise higher capacities. We could not find a readable maker page for them, so we list none of them. If a seller quotes a limit, look for it on the maker's own site and in the manual.
Safety
Inversion tables are not for everyone. Read who should not use an inversion table first, and talk to your doctor before you try one if you have any health condition.
