Black Friday deal was too good to pass up. Here's my review: Pros 1. Pretty easy to assemble. 2. Great workout, both hyper extensions and ab work. 3. The angle of the bench is great. It allows one to be at a 90 degree angle when hanging down to get the most out of the exercise for experienced gym rats. 4. It has nice padded legs. 5. It's not to heavy to move around. 6. All in all for the price it is pretty solid. Cons 1. It took a long time to arrive... about 3 weeks, which is half what desertcart estimated. 2. It is a bit challenging to get on to it. At 5'6" it requires jumping up onto it or using a small stool tucked on one side. That's a bit of a challenge as there is not much space between the pad and the foot holder to swing forward. I might be a bit gun shy leaning on the handles as I saw some reviews saying the handles broke. My handles look welded well. Over time I am sure I will adapt to it. 3. While it was easy to assemble, it requires two wrenches that were not included. It would have been nice if they included those little hand wrench tools that come with a lot of things that need assembly. I will have to borrow one from a neighbor as I only have one to finish tightening the bolts on the bottom. They require one to hold the bolt in place while the other one is turning the nut. When tight, the unit is stable. If the bolts are not tight enough it wobbles a little. All in all, I am happy and look forward to using it every day! It's solid for home gym equipment and well padded. Worth it! Review: Such a deal - For reference I'll start by mentioning that I'm a 5'10" male weighing about 215 pounds. The foam rollers are right behind my ankles when I'm in the hyper-extension excercise position. A 2" difference from my height would only move your ankles about 1" in either direction so this should fit most folks just fine. If you're very short or tall then here's a simple and obvious way to move the post with the thigh pad on it about 4" fore or aft by drilling one more set of holes for one of the two 'mounting bolts'. But this is NOT recommended by the manufacturer so I won't detail that adjustment option any further. The 'bench' arrived in an undamaged box which was very adequately packed and well strapped on the exterior. All of the parts inside were in perfect condition and the various fasteners were shrink-wrapped to a card. Assembly was about 30 minutes and was fairly simple. The bench is sturdy, stable with my weight and functions just as expected. I see no reason to "lengthen" the two handles as some reviewers have suggested. A shorter person may have a harder time mounting the aparatus but a cheap plastic "step" from the hardware store will solve the problem. The fit and finish of the bench is perfect with every screw/bolt hole in perfect position and alignment. The paint job is perfect and unblemished. The reviewers who found fault with some shortcomings of this bench should consider that one can not even PAINT a bench like this for the price that is being asked! If one were to buy only the raw steel stock necessary to build this bench (in the USA)one would pay far more than this model costs (from desertcart). Get a grip! Yes, I too would rather have one of the "nicer" ones that have an ergonomic pivoting thigh rest so that you can just roll forward into an inverted position, etc.. But, guess what? They cost about 5 times the price that this one is going for. In this case, you are getting FAR more than what you are paying for. An unbelieveable bargain for a good basic piece of excercise equipment. ## Features - VERSATILE EQUIPMENT – This training bench can be used for a wide variety of abdominal workouts.

You could try putting it up on blocks, but the safety/stability would be somewhat compromised. If you want to know who to thank for making this bench too small for many North Americans, look no further than the country of manufacture. **Q: Is it possible to do side extensions on this machine?** A: I'm not that strong but I did try a few & you can. It's just not that comfortable as others. Being strong & stable is a must for side extensions. **Q: is the chair adjustable? so that it's lower to the ground? thanks!** A: The chair is not adjustable, but it seems to be at the perfect height for not being "too" high up, while also not knocking your head against the base. What is adjustable are the foot bars. They can be raised or lowered to your preference...especially if you're going to switch between lower back and ab exercises. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Bench for Home Gym *by L***F on December 17, 2023* I have been wanting one of these for my home gym for quite a while.

Works fine for 6' heavy user. *by J***K on July 27, 2022* The overall roman chair appears to be very well made and strong, with the exception of the handlebars. The handlebars flex a bit when I put any weight on them. I'm not sure why Marcy went with these two welded handlebars when they could have used a solid pair of regular bike handlebars bolted to the seat, which would have been both stronger and less complicated. The rest of the chair seems to be very sturdy. Assembly is straightforward: Loosely bolt the rear stability bar and two uprights to the main bar, attach the seat support, seat, handlebars, adjustable leg support bar, and tighten all the bolts down. Add the foam pads and spring-loaded adjustment pin to the leg support bar, done. You'll need TWO WRENCHES to tighten the bolts and locknuts that hold up the seat upright. All the other bolts can be tightened with a single wrench or the included hex key. Because I was concerned about the chair tilting forward while I used it, and dumping me on the floor head-first, I slid it next to / over my bed so that the front stability bar was under the bed, and the seat and handlebars were over the bed. This way, if the chair did tip, it would simply dump me onto the bed. So far, the chair has proven to be completely stable. Moving it next to the bed hasn't been needed. But this arrangement also gave me both the handlebars and the bed to push off from. I'll move the chair away from the bed when I'm more comfortable with the stability of the chair and ready to try exercises with wider ranges of motion. The chair works fine for sit-ups and back bends. It doesn't flex and feels sturdy in use. I need to move the leg support bar up for back bends and down for sit-ups, which is a minor annoyance but easily done. The seat is surprisingly high for me and the height is not adjustable. I'm 6 foot tall, so I would guess that some users might find it challenging to climb up onto the seat for sit-ups. Overall, it seems like a solid piece of equipment that works well, particularly for the price. Recommended with the caveat that the handlebars are a bit flimsy. ## Frequently Bought Together - Marcy Adjustable Hyper Extension Bench - ProsourceFit Puzzle Exercise Mat, EVA Interlocking Foam Floor Tiles for Home Gym, Mat for Home Workout Equipment, Floor Padding for Kids - Marcy Utility Slant Board w/ Headrest – Folding Design with Adjustable Positions SB-4606 , Black/red , 29.00 x 18.00 x 59.00 inches --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/1202453-marcy-adjustable-hyper-extension-bench-jd-3-1](https://www.desertcart.be/products/1202453-marcy-adjustable-hyper-extension-bench-jd-3-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-01*
