    I live in the top floor of my apartment building. My dining room has a flat ceilig so that is where I put my poles. You can get a lilmynx for a vaulted ceiling, but that requires a screw into a joist for the ceiling mount.

    As long as your floors and ceilings are in good shape, then yep you can have a home pole!! If your looking for something removable we sell them here! https://www.studioveena.com/shopping

    poledancing – Carmen electra polesa ren't for pole fitness. They are unstable and dangerous. They are not meant to rigerous use, but as a prop to dance around. Not meant for holding weight. That's probably why it feels loose. Safe fitness poles are lilmynx, platinum stages, x pole, and pole danzer.

    Pole is definitely a good workout! There are a bunch of forum topics on the different companies, diameters and finishes out there that you can reference when you decide on getting a different pole.

    that is the pole i have i paid $200. for it, and it really sucks. mine kept spinning one way and un twisting so i put jb welt inside of it, to make it one big piece and bolt it to my roof and floor. that pole is dangerous, so im thinking of buying an xpole if i can find one under $350.

    The only way you'll get an x pole that cheap is if it is used. Beware of ebay. A lot of fake x poles are sold there and don't have the safety features that real x poles have.

    Luxurious – I don't think they accept payments.

    Lux & poledance – If you are looking for a cheaper pole, lilmynx is a good cheaper option, but you have to drill 1 screw into a joist. One woman on here recommends you screw a piece of wook along the joist and then screw the lilmynx mount through the wood so that the mount doesn't eat the drywall. Ask your apartment manager is you could put 1-3 screws (not bolts) into a joist that can be patched up when you move out. Here is the website for lilmynx poles. http://www.lilmynx.com/index.php/dance-poles-accessories/dance-poles.html

    Poledance – I had the lilmynx pro lite, which doesn't require drilling, but my ceiling is smooth, so the ceiling plate couldn't grip the ceiling, which made it useless to me. I think it is better on cottage cheese ceilings, but I'd go with one of the one-pieces as they are much more secure. Both studios I learned at had lilmynx 1 piece stainless poles and they were really good.

    My second pole was an x pole. I personally had a lot of issues with mine, but a lot of girls don't have the same issues I had. I think the 45mm diameter is better (mine was a 50mm.) the grip of my pole was decent though (I had a titanium gold.)

    My current pole is a platinum stges 1 piece 45mm brass. I like it a lot. It never slips on me, and I love that it is a 1 piece. I am not a fan of multi pieces anymore.
