What people are saying
A coveted Amazon's Choice product among foldable weight benches, this Flybird bench has also earned rave reviews from shoppers. It currently has a 4.5-star average rating, and a whopping 9,000 five-star reviews.
Shoppers say that this pick from Flybird delivers an effective home workout, and has been called "very close to gym quality" and "super flexible in its workout options."
"It's a great bench for the price," shared one reviewer who went on to add that it "can be easily folded and stored" and "adjusting the inclination is very simple."
"I feel secure when I am doing presses," shared one reviewer, who called this bench "worth having at home."
Reviewers who consider themselves to be weightlifting experts found that this bench was "too lightweight" for their needs, although they did mention it would be "suitable for beginners."
Since this bench is on the smaller side, reviewers that need extra height and width for support during their workouts may also find this bench not quite suitable for their needs.

The versatile piece of exercise equipment is a great option for all types of exercises, including bench presses, sit-ups, push-ups, and dips. However, before you head to checkout, some shoppers note that its compact design may not be ideal for all body types and fitness levels.
