    any tension pole needs to be checked for tightness every time you use it. Houses expand and contract with the weather and that can change how tight your pole is. I've been between 135-165lbs 5'5 and haven't had problems with mine coming down other then when the screw ate through the ceiling. Put it back up with a piece of wood between the mount and the ceiling and haven't had a moments problem since. Matter of fact I had the opposite problem I couldn't get it down when I wanted to take it down! My niece has also used it some and she is over 200. Mynx's are rated to I believe 220?

    Definitely too much for that pole. I have both the chrome XPole, and powder coated Lil Mynx. Love my Lil Mynx pole! The grip is much better for me. Chemgoddess is right though, the pad is useless.

    I run anywhere from 145-165 and have done LOTS of advanced tricks on my LM.  Probably the hardest trick on a pole is a reverse grab and I did them all the time on my LM.  Plus I am 5'8" so the bulk of my body weight was pretty far from the pole.  The only thing I do not like about the LM poles is that the top adjustable section is not usable.  If you have shorter ceilings it is not an issue.

    LOL! Well I would have driven there for that if I had too…… hehe

     

    Well good news here! The lady with the lil mynx contacted me…..bad news is, she said she is firm at 180. I'm trying to negotiate to 140 since I have to pick it up anyways. All I can do is hope. I may have to walk away and keep looking.

    I would just tell her it’s a ridiculous price seeing that you can get a new one for $20 more. An if she doesn’t budge, I’d buy a new one. At least it will have a warranty.

    she also might change her mind in a few weeks if no one buys it at 180. you need to take in shipping cost in consideration as well.
