Hyperextension Roman Chair - Adjustable Bench Foldable Exercise Bench Back Extension Machine Roman Chair Exercise Equipment for Home

The is a well-designed, robustly constructed product at an affordable price. If used correctly, a "Roman chair" is the ideal instrument to alleviate and eventually eliminate back pain, especially pain and weakness the lower back.

Very sturdy for being a piece of equipment that folds up. I've bought a couple of weight benches that fold up they tend to be unstable and flex a lot at the joint, but not this! For reference, I'm 5'7" and weigh 132 lbs. The pads are a little hard but that's hasn't been an issue for me.

Very sturdy frame. It fits me well with plenty of height adjustment left for someone taller. I prefer it to the professional one at my local gym. My one complaint is that the pads, while comfortable now, are pretty low quality and won't last. I will probably have make my own after a few months. 5'9", 170.

Really solid piece of equipment for the price. It was easy to put together and feels sturdy during use. I’ve been using it for lower back and core work, and it’s been a game changer. The adjustable height is a nice touch, and I love that it folds up to save space. I’m 6'2" and it still works well for me. Definitely recommend if you're building a home gym!

Before ordering, make sure you're under the weight/height recommendation for the equipment! The description says the maximum weight capacity is 250 lbs, and the recommended height is under 6ft. You should look for heavier-duty equipment if you don't meet those requirements. This one was perfect for my household because we met those requirements and wanted something that wouldn't take up much room. It's also easily foldable, which is a plus if you're in a small space and want to store it.When you purchase anything you have to build, always check to make sure you have all the parts first! There are 3 tools and 15 primary parts. The 3 tools include 2 open-ended wrenches and an Allen/hex key. I included a photo showing everything for an easy way to check that you have all the parts before building! Around the blue (poorly drawn circles), 8 additional bolts, 12 washers, and 4 nuts were pre-attached to the parts; they aren't listed separately in the parts list, so make sure you have them! The manufacturer was smart by pre-attaching most bolts, nuts, and washers. It helps you install the correct bolt in the proper place; it also helps during shipping. Bolts are small and the most common thing to go missing if the packaging gets damaged. I've had a lot of heavy gym equipment shipped (sorry, delivery guy and gals :-)).After checking to make sure I had all the parts, it only took about 20 minutes to build. And It's been used every day since!

Junk is the best way to put it. The materials are so thin and so cheap that while exercising i fell forward. It is calculated to make it as small and cheap as possible. After a week or so there were cracks sharp enough to cut someone. And the foam on this covers as much as a thong does lol returned.

This has about 15 or so parts and takes about 20 mins to put together. It’s a real good quality for the price you pay. I wish the padding was a bit wider but not a major issue. It folds easily so it’s perfect for a garage gym.

This is the only back extension bench I could find that was both foldable and had proper footrests. It’s stable for me at 5ft-8in (173cm). If I was taller, I think it might tip forward at full extension. If I was shorter, I think I might hit my head on the front brace when hanging fully — I kind of do now. So not the perfect design for everyone, but it meets my needs great.I’m very mechanically inclined, and I found the assembly a tad difficult. It’s easy to accidentally attach some pieces the wrong way. The square tube that holds the big pads was really difficult to insert past the plastic bushing, but the ultra tight fit may be necessary to avoid jiggling. Use a rubber mallet to bang it in. My biggest complaint is that the threaded inserts on one of the pads were slightly misaligned. It too me 20 tries to get the bolts threaded. I think most people would have just forced it and stripped the threads.
