Review on Newly Upgraded Foldable Strength Training Bench For Home Gym - FLYBIRD Adjustable Weight Bench by Justin Elmore

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Solid addition to home gym

This has been a good addition to my home gym. I am not sure if it is the best bench or even the best value, but since it was not feasible to physically test every bench on Walmart, I think I made a pretty good choice. I wanted a bench that could be adjusted for incline and decline workouts, as well as something that could be easily broken down for storage. The bench basically folds in half and can be leaned against the wall. Upright, it takes up roughly a 10-inch by 12-inch space, so it is pretty unintrusive propped in a corner. Laid flat, it can be hidden under a bed or a desk depending on your setup. The weight limit is listed as 880 pounds which put it in the mid to upper range of benches that I looked at. One minor quibble I have is that the angles of the incline were a little random. Instead of being in increments of 10 such as 10, 20, 30, 40, etc, or in increments of 15, such as 15, 30, 45, or 60, the angle presets are -30, - 9, 0, 24, 38, 52, 70 and 90 degrees. A standard set of presets especially with markings/labels would have been nice, but that is a pretty minor complaint.

Pros
  • Can be used for multiple exercises
Cons
  • The bench's plastic covering is cheap and easily scratched
