5 Stars Good, but gentle workout!
This AB roller, with it's spring return action, has allowed me to strengthen my arms and back with gentle motions – instead of the intense type of workout you get with the Ab Wheels. I am 63 years old, in pretty good shape, but needed something more gentle than the wheel. This is great!
5 Stars Great ab workout
Product is great. Make sure your core is already a bit strong or you'll feel it in your back the next day. Overall a great focused ab workout product.
4 Stars Ab Sl;ider
The Ab Slider is easy to use anywhere, at home or at the office. It mostly has worked on my arms and back, strengthening the muscles in my back and relieving some backaches from poorly toned muscles. At first it was a little hard to use, but as time went on, it became easier. Would buy again, as it doesn't take up much room and works for me!
5 Stars Ab Roller Slide.
This Ab workout is excellent. I can feel it in my ABS, shoulders & arms. Like every exercise you got to be consistent. Would i recommend this equipment to my family & friends? YES! I would.
1 Star Try an ab wheel instead…
My roommate in college had an ab wheel which was amazing – the day after I first used it my abs were so sore I could barely move. I wanted to get one for myself but was only able to find the Ab Slider so I decided to try that. It's definitely not the same. If you want to get a really great workout for your abs, I would absolutely recommend getting something like the Ironman Ab Wheel instead of the Ab Slider.

BodyCraft F602 Flat Incline Decline Bench
The most flexible weight bench available, the BodyCraft F602 can be used as a standalone platform for dumbbell workouts or in conjunction with a Smith machine for bench press, shoulder press, and more. The bench–which is made of 2-by-3-inch steel–adjusts to eight different positions, including incline, flat, decline, and near vertical (the bench stops at an 85-degree angle for proper support and comfort). The bench is also remarkably comfortable thanks to its 2-inch, high-density-foam seat and seat back, which are covered in black vinyl for durability and easy cleaning. Best of all, the bench supports a ton of different uses. When used as a dumbbell bench, the F602 perches just 18 inches off the floor, making it easy to reach dumbbells and other free weights on the floor while still providing ample room for tricep extensions and other exercises. And when you want to use the F602 with a Smith machine, simply slide it under the bar and you're set. The F602 bench, which also includes non-slip rubber feet to protect wood and other finished floors, carries a lifetime warranty.

4 Stars 1 Year Review
I've had this bench for about a year now. It is the older non-folding model with leg lift attachment. I will break it down by good points vs. negative.
Pro
1. Very Sturdy and well made
2. Aesthetics are very nice! I love the yellow.
3. Flat Bench is very sturdy and my feet rest on the floor to provide good stability. It can hold more weight than I can press, with no wobble.
4. I use Olympic weights but it's nice it can easily convert to standard width, if needed.
5. Leg attachment is very well made, with nice padding that doesn't slide off.
Cons
1. Incline presses feel awkward due to body position with a barbell. To compensate for this, I've been using dumbbells with it.
2. The back support has a little too much friction when positioning the seat from a flat to an incline. A little wax on the chrome bar may help.
3. Decline feels a bit awkward for me too, without having a spotter available. Once again, I use dumbbells for safety purposes.
To summarize, I feel this is the best bench on the market for the price. I've had a couple other benches and they did not compare in quality to the Power Tec. I use my bench routinely 3 times per week and it still looks and performs like new. I picked up a second-hand lat machine from a thrift store and with my dumbbell set, have great weekly workout sessions and see results. I highly recommend it!
4 Stars Read Before You Purchase!
I ordered my bench directly from AMAZON and I received the wrong model! The newer model allows you to fold up the bench which is what AMAZON had advertised but this is not what I received. Initially I was upset because I purchased this bench for all it's features including the new bracket folding design. However, this is just a minor setback which has no impact on my workouts so I let it slide.
I actually prefer the older model with the same model number because it appears to be much stronger and less likely to damage over long term use. Feels very sturdy and secure with the steel bar going across the bottom of the frame.
Secondly, this item was poorly packaged! At first I thought I received a used bench because it had some scratches all over the frame but only the seat and the back rest were properly packages with bubble wrap. The rest just had nylon bags and no real protection.
I let this slide because it's a workout bench and even though I want my bench to arrive in mint condition it will not impact my workouts either. The bench most likely got scratched up while in transit. It's a pretty heavy box loaded with steel bars.
If you notice I gave the bench 4 stars. I'm reviewing the bench not AMAZON's customer service. Many customers who deal with similar situations provide poor reviews for the products they ordered which is not at fault.
It's a nice bench overall. Very comfortable and includes some cool features like an angel change for the entire frame, leg extension bar handles secured under the seat, good back rest angle range ect…
I set this up as a narrow bench and ordered a 5 f barbell due to lack of space. It's nice to be able to convert the bench to an olympic bench. It will come in handy in the future when I have more space available.
You only have to take off a few bolts to switch to the Olympic bench. You will not be forced to re build the bench from scratch.
As far as mobility you just have to unscrew the back frame which holds up the barbell and you can easily move the bench to another room and tighten up the bolts again.
Took me about 40 minutes to put together.
4 Stars Commercial Quality Bench
I purchased this bench through the manufacturers website for 299.00 with the power rack for 449.00 and $43 total shipping.
The bench is commercial quality. It's weight capacity is great for even advanced lifters (600lb capacity). The bench I purchased does not fold up as seen in this picture and like I said I received mine directly form the manufacturer. The bench declines and inclines.
The incline I do not personally like. I feel that the incline puts you too far backward under the bar and forces you to lower the bar to and from the bottom of your chest rather than the middle at the nipple line. Because of this it makes it hard to use for incline. For flat bench, this product is fantastic. It truly is commercial quality as is all of powertec's products.
If you are looking for a home bench press with commercial quality I highly recommend this bench. However if you plan on working with the incline press I recommend searching for something different.
5 Stars Great, solid bench
Have had this bench for about a year now and am happy. The banch is solid, easy to build, and folds up nicely.

1 Star Try another brand
When I first purchased these weights, the adjustment tool became stuck nearly every time. After I thought I had finally figured out how to adjust it with reasonable speed, I was lifting one day and one of the weights just literally came apart in my hands, fell to the floor and narrowly missed my foot. I had only been using them for four weeks when this happened. I tried to call their customer service line to no avail. Don't waste your money. They are shoddily made.
1 Star I'll second the first review
I'm only giving these 1 star because there's no option for "0 stars".
My son bought me these for me as a gift. I had the exact same problem with the sliding mechanism. One of the dumbells worked OK approx. 80% of the time, but the other dumbell mechanism didn't work at all on one end and only about 10% of the time on the other end.
I hated to have to say anything to my son, but I did ask him if he would be able to return the one dumbell for an exchange (had I purchased them myself they would go back for a full refund).
Save up and go for the Bowflex!
