Not a great fit for everyone
I LOVE the 45 degree hyper extension benches at my local gym. They have two different brands and both are my favorite way to warm up and then cool down. I figured this adjustable bench looked close enough like the gym models, it too, would be a favorite piece of equipment in my home gym.
It isn't. It is awkward for me in two significant ways.
No matter how I adjust the sliding pads, the ANGLE to the pads when I place my foot flat on the foot plate and press flat against the pads, prohibits my using the ankle/calve pads. The ankle/calve pads are NOT adjustable and are so high up the plate when in that position that my calves don't even touch them.
I have to press my feet much lower on the rear plate using nothing but sheer muscle to lever myself against the plate. Seriously, with my height of 5'6", I get no calve/ankle support from the pads if I want my body to lay flat on the large pads. I guess the good thing about that is my calves are getting worked...

Not Very Strong
I ordered this product for use by myself and my husband. It is okay for me, I weigh 135lbs, but it feels like the metal is going to bend. My husband who weighs 210, had a lot of difficulty using the machine. It feels like it is going to fall apart. If you are used to a gym quality machine, this isn't it. The next time we get one (we are assuming this won't last too long), we are going to an actual gym supplier store and spending a little more to get something that's more sturdy.
Does the job, price is right (:)-;=
I bought this roman chair a few months ago after using this type of equipment for years in various gyms. One of the only ways for me to get rid of my gut and "love handles" is by employing side bends and forward raises. I've been off for a year from a work injury (I'm an Ironworker) and had gained 30 pounds. At 5'8" and a normal weight of 160#, that was too much. I'm 51, and I work out with medium weights, then bike or run miles afterwards. My injury causes upper and lower back, neck and shoulder pain. I figured that building my back muscles and core up again would help.
I shopped the internet, and this one looked closest to the gym models that I'd used, although I knew that at the $99 sale price, quality was iffy. But it had the foot plate and handles, which help getting on and off, and was the same basic design, with an adjustable setting for user height. I figured if I really didn't like it, I could return it.
When I put it together, I noticed the welding was pretty...
