Cap Barbell Xodus Folding Basic Bench

It is very compact and doesn't take up much room at all. It is ideal for the small space we intended and the part that folds up seems a little wobbly when in the folded position. Concerned it may cause a weakness eventually in the hinge. I think it would be helpful if it clicked into something to stabilize it more in the folded up position. Other than that we've been very pleased with it.

The Xodus folding bench is perfect for the limited space I have, a few drawbacks however take away from the overall idea of achieving a great workout without putting out the extra money for bulky and expensive machines, these are; 1. The rack is not wide enough to do wide grip benches with heavy weight,you have to move your hands in to place the bar back, sometimes difficult when close to failure on last set! solution: maybe an extension plate to widen the rack from the bottom? 2. It would be nice to be able to do low squats or any squats, solution: An adjustable bench that you could detach easily, possibly with pins, leaving the rack for squats? 3. The leg machine portion is kind of cheap, solution: Beef it up a little! The pads are kind of cheap as well with the end of a bolt rubbing the inside of your knee. Overall, this machine is a nice concept product and again a very good alternative to bulky expensive equipment.
