12/26/24 – Price was nice for son’s first real weight bench press for Christmas gift. However the round support bar does NOT line up with the frame. Probably a factory mix-up between 2 different models. Trying to figure out whether we need to drill new holes in the frame or support bar, try to get the correct part (a different support bar with the right holes), or just send the whole thing back. Plus, one of the support pins for raising and lowering the rack was chipped and unusable.
This was to replace a rickety rack my son built himself out of wood (I didn’t trust it, even though he is a bright engineering student). Now I feel like his wooden creation may be more trustworthy than this.

I like it, I’d rather a regular bench but for 50 bucks! I’m using a 2 inch 45 pound bar and it’s just fine. People think u need a smaller bar but you don’t. It folds up easy, it’s light tho. 50 bucks buy it, if it breaks so what who cares, 50 bucks. Easy to put together. I saw people who said the bolts didn’t line up but that was not a problem for me they all lined up. Just buy it.

In COVID-19 time, prices of all fitness equipment are highly inflate! The price of this item is somewhat affordable. Let’s not compare it to industrial business class like Nautilus. The design and build of this item is SUITABLE for home (not abuse) use.
I like the Carriage Bolts, the nuts with plastic insert, the insertion pins with springy locking ball, the sturdiness of light-duty construction.
The assembly instructions are easy to follow EXCEPT ONE minor OMISSION, inaccurate note (see part F photo). The LARGE round holes of two vertical square poles must FACING INWARD. Insert the round F bar (attached to the seat) into these two holes and bolt them to the 2 vertical posts BEFORE attaching the E bar. See the diagram with written notes in one photo.
My item comes with some defective parts (see photos). Your MAY BE perfect.
A- Broken non-essential plastic parts (see photos)
B- Hole of ONE SIDE of a bar hold is not large enough for the insert pin.
C- All five holes of ONE SIDE of the rotation plate are not large enough for the insert pin.
Instead of returning this sizeable equipment, for solving B and C, I will use long bolts replacing the quick insert/extract pins for now. Later I will have to buy a proper steel drill bit to widen the holes for using the supplied pins
BETTER QUALITY CONTROL Please !!!
*** UPDATE May 21,2021 *** Installed it in the basement for 2 weeks. It still has strong disinfectant odor even after careful wiping with liquid soap and water twice. It may be sprayed with some strong order substance INSIDE the metal square tubes ! Literally it stinks !!! Don’t want to pour water into the tubes (metal rusting), have to find way to rid the offensive odor !!!

Everything looks to be in order, (other than the instructions) however the bolt holes for part F to the bench do not line up. Just in case the laws of physics don’t apply to this bench, I tried moving it over to the other hole. Same problem. Hoping there is a solution for this from the manufacturer, until then this will receive one star.
I’m surprised it has such a good rating with how many bad reviews I am now finding about missing parts, unclear instructions, low product quality, & apparently mold.

The product was securely packaged and arrived on time. Product is as advertised no missing parts and all in excellent condition. It did take a 1-2 hours to assemble otherwise happy with purchase and would order again.

The bench arrived well packaged. All parts were there. It took me a couple of hours to put it together. The manual has decent instructions how to put it together. The only thing that it would make it better if the bolts, nuts and washers were maybe separated or packaged in a one of those bubble packages. They were all together in one bag and it took me some time to separate and understand which one is which. I am attaching an image of them with markings so hopefully it will help save you some time. I would also use your own ranch rather than using the one included in the package.
Overall, it’s good for the price and pretty steady unless you’re planning on benching really heavy weights and then I would definitely go with something else.

Various pros and cons to this.
Pros: so far it’s held up without breaking benching (though I am still wondering whether I trust the dip bars, each time I do them it’s worrying). The dip bars are also quite close to the bar rests which adds to the worry around using them (close to / touching wrists).
Cons: Tools, screws, and pins are sub-par at best, the holes for the pins should not have passed quality control as the main hole to fit the pin on the ‘adjustable’ leg doesn’t fit. I tried all available pins and none were of the correct size for this, the only one suitable for it barely fitted in using a rubber mallet and sure as hell won’t come back out.. Meaning it’s not adjustable.
The dip bar puts your balance ability up against the non-locking area under the bar rests, meaning the whole area occasionally sways violently. This can be easily solved with a longer footprint, though this seems to be a standard copy of a cheap bench found everywhere and I fear they have not practically tested this.
The ‘squat rack’ is impossible and quite frankly dangerous to use, it’s FAR too low to put the bar back on if you can get it off the bar in the first place and the bar rests are far from ideal when squatting. Though they are a good angle for putting the bar back after benching.
In summary, I bought this as a temporary bench before I get a new squat/power rack and it is fine for careful use of < 90kg benches. The materials, tools, fittings, and design are awful and barely worth the cost, various dents, damaged parts, and broken plastic end caps mean a disappointing unboxing. This could have been a great bench with proper design, engineering, and safety features added.. Though, I would strongly suggest they get the quality control ironed out asap.

This bench is great for starting out a gym. The assembly was a bit difficult as the instructions were not very clear in regards to what screw/bolt to use where. It took me about 1 hour to put together, but I felt that it could have gone a lot faster if the instructions were more clear.
Overall, the bench is great for the price, but some areas could use improvements such as:
*The dip station does not feel very sturdy due to the footprint and support on the ground, it should be more wider (yes it will increase the size of the space it occupies, but this could solve the flimsiness it feels during dips).
*The fold up position’s latch is not aligned properly, it works, but better alignment should be made so it’s easier to use the safety bolt.
Overall, it’s a great starter bench, has lots of features such as sit up, dip, tricep station, and incline, decline, and flat benching. For incline/decline, I recommend using dumbbells.

el instructivo poco claro y algunas de las piezas no ensamblan correctamente. Opino que la calidad de los materiales es de índole medio. En fin por lo que cuesta creo que no se puede pedir más.

Moved into an apt and needed something compact. This bench does the job. It’s a little wobbly and the grip area for the bar isn’t too wide. One of the reasons I bought it was because it said that it could be used as a squat rack, I’m 5’2” and there’s no way to squat with it so that was disappointing. It is compact and easy to put together and store in a small space.
