REP AB-4100 Adjustable Bench Review: Sneaky Value!

Lightweight, highly adjustable, and durable are just some of the words to describe the REP Fitness AB-4100 adjustable weight bench. Seriously, this thing is capable of doing almost anything.

Along with having a minimal gap (only 1.57 inches) and a 12-inch back pad, the AB-4100 comes with a ladder-style adjustment mechanism so you can pick from 7 back position and 3 seat positions. For extra security, the bench comes with a closed ladder design so you can lift with full peace of mind.

Oh, did we also mention 7 different color options?

I bought this bench 2 days ago and this review helps justify the decision. Thanks coop!!

[DampRaccoon]

You mentioned a couple of times that most garage/home gym owners are using dedicated flat benches in addition to an adjustable bench. I'm not sure that's true.

[bawlsmcthaniel]

I was up for debate on which to get but ended up going with the 5200. Can add wide pads and a spotter deck and plus its on sale right now. 5200 was the easy choice for me.

I’m in the process of purchasing a new bench. This along with other video on raring benches was helpful. Thanks for the info and keep it up. You provide good insight on gym equipment. THANKS!👍🏼

[bucobrews]

solid review as always. I really like this bench. Id like to see how it compares to the FIDAB-2 adjustable bench. Also if you want to do a decline you can just throw a 35 lb plate under the front foot since that's all they are good for. lol

[BeigeRage_]

Definitely would love to see your opinions on the AB3000 in comparison to other incline benches in the ~$300 price range with or without decline

[rocat]

Just ordered the Limited Edition Purple one! Nice video!

[TheSasquatchNation]

I think you sold me on getting this bench.

I just received my AB-4100. With all the positive reviews and recommendations online, I have to say I'm very disappointed. I didn't expect it to be as good as the commercial grade benches that they have at my gym but wow this thing wobbles. A lot. The ladder mechanism also makes noise as the bench wobbles when it's set to flat because of the double support design. I tried tightening the bolts as some have suggested online but it didn't help much at all. The problem is the frame itself is not stiff enough and it twists way too much. There are also some defects with the powder coat and stitch work. The only positive that I can say about this bench is it has the right height and the padding is nice. This will be the last REP product for me.

Buying this in purple. Going to be awesome

I like the way GGR is incorporating other perspectives like "assembly Sam". Lol

[Reddogj]

I am looking to buy, for home gym. I am leaning toward this one.

[Rich_Lahman]

I think when the cushion gets softer near the hinge that might poke you enough to make you readjust.

[Natefirethemagnets]

You should review some Tuff Stuff gym equipment.

Coop, I have the Prime Fitness Adjustable Bench and really like it. But, I would love to be able to stand it upright. Can you share where you got the 3D printed stand for it from? Is it available to purchase?

[brandonhoover]

Some things just get so good, that they have to cost so much. It’s a crazy cycle for a home gym.

[mi.Dalton]

Coop, what are the best backyard/outside gym cover solutions you have seen?

[YourFavoriteLibertarian]

What do you think of the adjustable benches with the leg curl and extension peice included? Trying to maximize my small space. Any suggestions on that front? Just subbed. Thanks for the content!

[stevesears]

Woah woah woah, only 700 lbs weight rating? But what if I want to incline press 900 lbs?

[FWW]

I was just telling myself I need a new bench
