THE Best High Quality Affordable Adjustable Bench? Rep AB-4100 Review

Is this the best high quality affordable adjustable bench? I'll be honest at first I wasn't sure what to think about this new bench. Was it a cheaper downgraded from the Rep AB-5200? Am I sacrificing quality or could this really compete with the best adjustable benches on the market?
In this video we explore how well this Rep Fitness AB-4100 bench performs against some of the most popular well reviewed benches out there. The Rep AB-5200, AB-5000, Rogue Adjustable Bench 3.0, and well... we've reviewed a lot of benches so there's a lot to digest in this video.

Just replace your dining room chairs (do people still have dining rooms?) With benches. THEN have a big dinner party, but OH NO! You don't have enough seating! Well you better pick up 2 more benches so your guests have somewhere to sit

[@GlucksGym]

Finally someone with some logic over here! I'll let Wynie know the new plan

[@TrenbologneSandwich]

@@GlucksGym Definitely need to pick up an EliteFTS 0-90 Incline bench, Collegiate 0-90 bench, 0-90 Deluxe Incline bench, 0-90 Signature bench, Scolastic Incline bench, Signature 0-90 Dumbbell bench, Quick Ship 0-90 Incline bench, and Military Dumbbell bench. These are 8 bench reviews the world, and your dinner party NEED. Actually though it would be awesome to see some EliteFTS reviews

Great honest review! I have to say moving heavy benches is like that itch that slowly gets worse over time....At first I didn't mind, but now I almost want to just get a flat bench so I don't have to keep moving my adjustable one.

It really is and with 6 benches currently (obviously no purpose there just for reviews) it gets old quick. Some of them hardly ever move or get used because who wants to deal with it?

Thank you for this! I've been researching for hours the last few days on equipment to get for my home gym I'll be starting once our basement is done being remodeled and this seems like the perfect bench for me. I pray my wife doesn't kill me when she sees all the stuff I got lol. I saw a handful people complaining about tightening the bolt on the 5200 didn't completely eliminate the wobble but others didn't have this issue. Hoping I don't run in to this on the 4100 but it's a chance I'm willing to take and it sounds like their customer service is pretty responsive.

Gotta love that blue! That’s the color I have on my rack and bench from Rep. I like the wider pad support they have on this one and if they had dropped it a few months ago it would’ve made deciding between it and and the 5200 a tougher choice! I think I still like the 5200 better though because like you pointed out I can setup for bench press on just the back pad. Thanks for posting!

[@GlucksGym]

Both solid, really can't be too disappointed with either.

[@zaineridling]

I received my 4100 yesterday and I already call it the "Goldilocks" bench. Not too heavy. Not too expensive. Exceptionally stable. Perfect for the home gym. I would have bought the 5200, but the 125-lb. weight of one scared me away. At 5'11, the 36-inch backpad is more than enough. My only wish would be to knurl the lift handle. I'm sure they're holding out on that feature for 2025.

[@GlucksGym]

Maybe the new AB 5200 will have that knurl!? And ability to add attachments? The 4100 is a great bench that's for sure

[@johna9168]

awesome comment! Im looking for a bench for the wifey and kids and this comment pretty much answered my question. gonna go with 4100 and wait for hopefully a new decline ab5000. 🤞🏼

[@BadShadd1]

I received my AB-4100 a couple days ago. I too had bent ladder cages. Mine were bent in the same spots as Gluck’s. It would stick at about the 75 degree mark. REP’s customer service was great. They are sending out replacements, no issues and no arguing. I think the issue is the foam they put on the ladder for shipping getting compressed on the ladder cage by the bench enough that it bends the (somewhat fragile) ladder cage. The bench came in flawless condition other than that. It really is the perfect weight and size for a home gym. I really enjoy it. The blue ab-4100 looks great with my blue Apollo half rack!

[@babygiantbarbell1014]

I feel like the 4100 is a great middle ground between the 3100 and 5200. I would just like to see that price tag slightly lower. Great video Gluck.

Thanks for the review! I was a little peeved initially that I went with the 4100 instead of the 5200, but after seeing how the 5200 is significantly longer (and honestly I wish my 4100 was an inch or two shorter for tricep extensions), I now know it was the right choice. I do wish I had gone with blue instead of black as the numbers on the side are basically illegible on mine.

[@jimbarnes9222]

[@sharkbait1958]

Agree with the Goldilocks comment. I had agonized between the two benches for a year and a half. I'm a powerlifter and needed a good deal of support, but also wanted to have something less that 125lbs to move around and store upright. The day this bench came out, I ordered it. It's PERFECT! Mr. Gluck didn't mention much about the colors btw, the green color kicks you know what. It's beautiful. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about the lack of knurling on the handle. The balance of this bench when rolling it is so easy that I don't even notice that it's smooth. my hands are already torn up from training, i actually like the handle being smooth in my hand. It moves and stores upright like a dream. If you have been vascillating between the other two benches GET THIS ONE! Now, if they could only come up with a smaller GHD. 🤔

[@GlucksGym]

Quality bench. I didn't go crazy about the colors since every other reviewer got white (you'll see) and they were limited editions but hopefully the clips show off enough of a few colors.

[@ExpeditionaryRanger]

The 4100 is a no brainer for us. Wife and I have to work out simultaneously due to time constraints with kids and job. We have a RML-490 on a 8'x8' plywood and horse stall mat platform such that we can squat, bench, deadlift, and whatever else simultaneously. The dimensions of the FB5000 and the AB4100 allow simultaneous benching with both on the platform within the 8' length. It saves time for us and opens up floorspace off the platform, as our AB "station" can be moved to the platform without having to do a major shuffling of bench exercise.. Now that they ship to Canada, I'm ordering both shortly, to replace our existing FB and AB which do not both fit within the 8' length for the feet. Our gym is almost complete!....maybe...

I also currently have the 5200 In black and it’s great... wobbly so maybe I gotta tighten the bolt you mentioned as well and see but the bench is to long for my useage. I literally told them to make a short 5200 option and wham bam the 4100 was created. I’ll take 1% credit for it but in all seeioussness I need a shorter bench for my apartment gym Ans it appears this solves my problem. Now do I wish it was alittle less then $100 difference sure... maybe when it’s on sale I’ll grab one and sell off my 5200.

I do feel like thr pricing is odd in their current setup. I think the weight capability probably isn't a factor for the vast majority of people but it's a good point on your part

[@eccogray1585]

My 5200 came damaged so not surprised to hear that their Quality Control continues to suck

[@GlucksGym]

I've gotten a ton from them without issue and would put their service and quality against Rogue (at least modern Rogue)

[@kozmo7]

@@GlucksGym nahh not me sadly I’ve had 3 5200 benches before I gave up, all bent and 4x deep Knurl power bars They just don’t QC well enough, at least people like me without a KZbin channel and live far away from Colorado in the southern states

[@cuzihungry]

I hate to (attempt to) add to your bench addiction lol but I think you need to get the AB-3100 to compare this to... I didn't even know there was an AB-3100 until I accidently stumbled upon it.

[@GlucksGym]

I'll wait until they update that one 😂

[@cuzihungry]

@@GlucksGym what do you think they'll change/ upgrade?

[@mediumspeedsomedrag9885]

Go with Rep. Get RX’s customer service was terrible for me. My bench is rusting like crazy and they told me it was “normal ware and tare.” It’s less than a year old.

[@GlucksGym]

I've heard the same from a few unfortunately. Don't tell that to the KZbin commenters, they're passionate 😂

@@GlucksGym Perhaps they treat you differently. I asked for a replacement ladder 2 days ago, haven't got any response.

@@Jingyih I'd say that's a good guess but generally I usedtwo different accounts so they don't realize I'm a reviewer otherwise the interaction might not be authentic

Fyi they replaced the bench for me. So customer service is good.

I wish these benches had a decline option.

I do wonder if they tweak them if that'll get added or if they'll leave that alone for 5000

Lol did you just call yourself an influencer? You don’t even sell NFTs bro. Rep seriously has a firm grip on the bench market. They have so much variety. If you’re buying a bench nothing else makes sense. If you’re buying a home gym all at once that’s when people tend to match brands with whatever rack they’re getting.

[@GlucksGym]

Just wait until we drop that Wynie NFT line! They definitely are expanding that lineup. Hard to keep up

[@marksimmons5839]

Is the 5200 the best high quality unaffordable adjustable bench?

Depends what you qualify as unaffordable. Rogue 3.0? Prime? FIDAB 2? All more expensive

@@higherlifts420 didn't mean to insult the bench you've bought, it is a good product but I don't get the luxury of showing a biase as a reviewer. I have used it and talked to others who have had issues and we plan to review. I'm sure you didn't mean to be insulting by insinuating I'm being paid but I bought all these Rep products myself. The only way I "get paid" is by people who are nice enough to click the links. If you mean reviewers who don't say negative things well not everyone so honest and thorough which is something I strive to be.
