FLYBIRD bench questions
Which bench holds the most weight?
The 1200 lb heavy-duty bench. Next is the Zero-Gap at 1000 lb, then the WB6 at 880 lb, the WB5 at 800 lb, and the L and XL at 750 lb.
Which bench suits tall lifters?
The XL lists a 33-35 in backrest and a removable headrest for users up to 6'5". The Zero-Gap lists a 31.5 in backrest and fit for users up to 6'7".
Do the benches fold?
Five fold for storage. The WB5 folds to 9.06 in wide and the XL to 7.5 × 11.3 × 33 in. The 1200 lb bench stands upright instead, and it and the Zero-Gap have transport wheels.
How many positions do they have?
The WB5 lists 144 positions from -30° to 90°. The L and XL list 96 combinations of 8 backrest, 4 seat and 3 leg positions. The WB6 lists 8 backrest and 3 seat positions, and the Zero-Gap 8 backrest angles from 90° to -28° with 3 seat positions. The 1200 lb listing gives no position count.
What warranty do they carry?
The WB5 and L listings show 1 year in the product details and mention 1-year frame replacement with 3-year parts coverage in the description. The 1200 lb listing states a 3-year guarantee. The other listings state no warranty, so check the seller page before buying.
Are there known weak points?
Buyers report mixed results on stability, with some noting wobble on the WB5, L and XL. Size draws mixed reports on the L, Zero-Gap and WB6, with some finding the pad narrow or the bench small for taller users.
