Stamina Hyperextension Bench 2014 - Adjustable and Foldable Exercise Bench Roman Chair with Smart Workout App - Up to 250 lbs Weight Capacity

I was going to get one of the cheaper $72 models, 6 months earlier. But they had a stock out, during peak of pandemic. When I went back to order one, I noticed this one was $20 more, but looked more substantial. And reviews were better. So I ordered it. Arrived fairly soon. Assembly was a bit detailed, even for a former bench mechanic like me. But the instructions were fairly clear, and very specific, in sequence, with good illustrations. Not only is it very stable and sturdy, it also has some space between the two hip/thigh pads. That is a big plus, for an adult male. The cushions are thick and firm but flexible. The parts all fit together with excellent tolerances. On other assembly-required equipment in past, I often encounter inscrutible instructions or impossible diagrams, or missing parts. But this one was perfect. Five stars. And it helps my back a lot. I don't have back problems but this will help prevent them from developing. Most guys my age do have or develop back problems. I'm 5'7" and 150 lbs. This equipment is a fine fit for me. Estimate it would work for a person down to about 5'0" and up to about 6' 0". Might work beyond that, but I wouldn't know.

This bench is pretty stable. I am 5'11" and 187 lbs. I purchased it for the sole purpose of strengthening my lower back to see if I can remediate some minor discomfort I have been having as I got older. The bench came in a well padded medium sized box. Instructions were pretty clear and comes with 2 wrenches and all the bolts to assemble it properly. Fairly easy to put together and once adjusted to fit your body size, it provides solid support for back exercises. I am sure this can accommodate a person that is over 6' feet tall without any issues. I have not tried any other hyperextension bench, but if you only want to strengthen your lower back muscles, this is a good bench. I keep my bench in the garage and plan to use it regularly so I cannot speak as to how easy it is to put together.

It arrived today and it took about 1/2 to unbox and assemble. All the parts were there, and it included two wrenches needed to tighten the bolts and nuts. The assembly instructions were reasonably good and how it goes together is rather intuitive. I wanted this bench because my lower back needs work and I already have a "regular" weight bench for my other needs. This makes a good one-trick-pony that is not too expensive. It is light, reasonably compact, and easy to move. I am 5'9" with a 32" inseam and the bench needs the lowest/shortest setting. If you have short legs this bench may prove a challenge. (The 2 locking knobs my still prove adequate even though the main one does not slide into a provided hole... but I did not need to try that. Or you could add another hole with a drill and metal bit.)

Want to strengthen your core and lower back for under a $100? This is a great unit! Sturdy and easy to use. It basically does one thing (back extensions) but does it very well and fits a variety of body sizes. I’m 54 years old and this is the best my back has felt in years. You get a stretch when your body is down and build lower back muscles on the way back up. Much more stable than it might appear! Very satisfied!

I was apprehensive when it was delivered, because the box was lightweight. 15 pounds? How could this be sturdy? Upon putting it together, it works great. Does what it has to do. Folds up for minimal space in my small apartment. I'm 180 pounds and 6 foot tall. it was not too small and it is sturdy enough. I can safely hold a 50 pound weight to add resistance - Carefully of course. * Hyper extensions are not just for your lower back. Even better, use them for your glutes/hips.

It's not a bad product, but the material it is made of isn't the best. I use it daily and the area where my thighs sit seems to lean a bit to the left side - nothing that prevents me from doing the exercise, but just a bit annoying when I look at it. It was easy to put together, probably took about 15 minutes. I'm 5'9", but had to put the pads all the way down on the lowest level since the pads would grind into my groin area. So if you are short, not sure this will work well for you. Overall, okay equipment to supplement your home workout gym, but I probably would try to buy something of higher quality if I buy another one in the future. I do get a decent workout with this equipment, the lower back pain I've had over the years has noticeably decreased.

Just arrived yesterday. I easily assembled it today using the great step by step instructions. See attached photo. It came with the wrenches needed, and an owners manual. It's my first day with it so I can't speak to it's durability, BUT it looks to be sturdy. I'm 64, and plan on using this to strengthen my back, glutes and ab muscles. Along with my step glider, weights, yoga matt and out door activities I hope to get back in shape this summer. Pandemic weight must come off ! Maybe your last year was like mine. Stress eating, and not enough exercise. I'm excited to add this equipment to my in-home workouts. Worth the purchase !

excelente calidad, acabado y diseño sencillo, plegable, se ve bastante resitente y robusto, habrá que ver con el tiempo si se mantiene así

Used it a few times now and it does the job it's lighter than i thought it was going to be and folds away easily, well priced.

Great Foldable Stamina Hyperextension Bench! - well designed - comfortable to use - excellent welds - excellent paint job - easy to assemble I'm a happy customer - 5'6" - 155 Lbs. Thank you for a great product at a reasonable price!

I didn't want to spend a lot of money or have something that takes too much space. It does the job.

It's been years since I bought something with instructions this clear and easy to follow Company deserves a reward for just that.
