   Get the newer version!
   Perfect bench. Ridiculous value. Firm, stable, comfortable and made of quality materials.Don’t bother ordering the older cheaper model that requires bolts and nuts to assemble. The newer one in the photo comes preassembled. All you need to do is remove the 2 lock pins (pictured), lower the legs, and reinsert pins.What is NOT shown in the instructions, and must be a new design revision, is 2 bolts with plastic gear handles (pictured) need to be removed before lowering the legs and need to be removed and reinserted once the legs are lowered. It seems FlyBird wants you to be double covered from any bench instability. It seems like overkill but better safe than injured.I purchased this bench at $88.99 which makes it in a class by itself for a durable, affordable and storable weight bench. I’m sure if you’re looking for a super heavy duty bench that will support huge weight it may not be the best fit. But if you’re like me and use this with sub-100 pound dumbbells and bodyweight work, I think you’ll be more than pleased.

   This is our second bench in less than two years – it’s so good we needed another
   This assembles easily, folds for easy storage (lean agains the wall behind a door or slip under the bed. It is very sturdy and has performed great. Our only issue is that the two benches, purchased March 22 and May 23, are not the same dimensions. They are roughly the same as each other – an inch or so off in every dimension – and neither match the description. If we didn’t already have the first we wouldn’t have noticed. The product listing when we purchased had two separate items, not just a different color selection. We made sure to get the same thing as that is what we wanted. That is when we discovered the first one didn’t match the dimensions listed either. When the second arrived and was assembled we stored them beside each other and noted the differences. It is not an issue at all in functionality, just something we noticed. If we see a need, we would not hesitate to purchase a third – of this “exact” same thing.

   Impressive
   I say this as a former college athlete and a lifelong weightlifter: this thing is rather impressive. It’s much more sturdy than I had anticipated and folds away nicely. It does well in my small space.

   Pretty Good Bench!
   I don’t really need much from a bench, so this is working well! It’s lightweight and sturdy. The main downside for me is that the legs don’t lock in place when you fold them in. So if you want to lean it against a wall upright, the bottom leg will just fall so it isn’t folded in anymore. If you’re dealing with a small space and need to have it stored that way, it’s pretty annoying! Other than that, it has been solid all around!

   Not bad.
   Just fine. Sturdy. Legs fold up so it takes very little storage.Comfortable, better than most gym benches.I only do 225 on the bench, but it holds well, no wobble or anything. I’m sure it could handle a lot more weight.A lot of benches are too high for me and I can barely get my feet on the ground, but this one is just perfect.

   Works, but foldable is generous
   It works great and supports lifting dumbells up to 60lbs. Easy to assemble and it does fold up which is nice for storage.However, folding it requires unscrewing two knobs then removing the pins. It’s not super convenient if you need to store it when not in use often.

   Solid and Sturdy
   I wanted to start working out from home to make sure I could fit in my routine. I went with this bench as a starter option. Takes about 10 minutes to put together very very sturdy well constructed and really does a great job. You can do a lot of different workouts from it. It’s a great buy

   Unnecessary Steps
   I have a small gym, so I wanted a foldable bench. I am in the gym everyday doing everything from yoga to lifting weights. The configuration of the room changes depending on what I am doing, so the bench gets setup and taken down daily.I bought the Flybird because it was highly rated and a little cheaper than others. It is pretty decently constructed and works well. The reason I am giving it only three stars is the manufacturer did not really think out the folding process. There are two pins that need to be removed when folding or setting up the bench….pretty straight forward. My issue is with the knobs on each end of the bench that are used to lock the legs in place. Unfortunately, the manufacturer made the threaded part about half an inch short. Because of this, you have to take the knobs all the way out when breaking down the bench. That’s two extra steps that would not be needed if the things were longer. If the were longer you could simply back the things out until you could fold the legs down.Sound sort of nitpicky…..did I mention I put the thing up and take it down everyday? For me, having to remove and install four items during the setup/breakdown process is unsatisfactory.
