REP Fitness AB-5200 Adjustable Bench In-Depth Review - Best Value Incline Bench?

Author: Cooper Mitchell
The REP AB-5200 FI Adjustable Bench is one of the best incline benches we've ever reviewed. Not only is it feature-packed with a laser-cut ladder style system, grippy vinyl, and a stand-up feature, but it offers all of this in at an excellent price point compared to the competition. It is a big, heavy bench and is still pretty more expensive than some prefer, but for those that want a high-end adjustable bench at a price most can swallow, this is an excellent option for your home gym. Read the full review.

Pros & Cons

What we like ...
  • The Rep AB-5200 Adjustable Bench is, in our opinion, the best adjustable bench that Rep Fitness currently sells.
  • The bench height from the floor to the top of the pad when completely flat is 17.75" which is pretty great for an incline bench with a ladder style.
  • The bench is made of both 11 and 7 gauge steel through the 2"x3" frame.
  • 1,000 LB capacity, although we'd guess it could handle much more.
  • There are 7 adjustable back angles and 3 seat pad angles that are quick to change thanks to the ladder-style adjustment system.
  • All logos are laser cut out of stainless steel, something we've been asking for, for years.
  • The bench can be stored upright when not in use which is similar to one of our favorite benches, the Sorinex 0-90 NP3 Adjustable Bench that costs more than double what the AB-5200 does.
  • The vinyl on used on the bench is Rep's signature grippy vinyl that can be seen on the home gym favorite Rep FB-5000 Competition Flat Bench.
  • There are wheels and handles on the bench that makes it easy to maneuver.
  • The AB-5200 is very stable when using flat or at an angle.
What needs improvement ...
  • Although this is a great value bench, it's still more than some would want to pay for an adjustable bench. This said, if you spend much less, the quality differences will be dramatic.
