Easy to assemble. Work the back well. I think in the add it mentioned it works the abs. This is not an ab machine. It works the back.

After a lot of shopping I purchased this Roman Chair. It arrived well packaged and clean. The instructions were a little complicated, but not terrible if you are used to assembling things. You definitely need a set of socket wrenches and/or fixed monkey wrench to assemble it.... a ratchet is even better(adjustable crescent won't do it, neither will a suregrip plyers. Nuts and Bolts are large and need to really be tightened for the chair to be stable and work properly. So if you don't have these tools be aware that you will need to buy or borrow one.. I can't remember the size, approximately an 11mm I think. Then it is stable, I am almost 5 11" and when I started using this I was nearly 190, and stability wasn't a problem. If you have tightened all the bolts and it continues to feel unstable, try putting sandbags or equivalent weights on the chair's feet, I did this at first, and it helped. The overall extension is good, but the rear bar to catch your ankles is a little short, its adequate, but if your coordination is off, tired etc, it wouldn't be impossible to slip. I extended the bar with some pipe I bought for a few dollars at that hardware store, and its a little more secure. This was something I just did, but may or may not be necessary.
Its not the cheapest of these machines, but its close, and compared to what I have read and seen of others if you are looking for a simple home version of this piece of equipment, this is a reasonably priced, light duty version of one. I like it, and the price was right. If you want something more substantial then consider spending more money, but this is a good work out machine, stable, essentially comfortable, simple. functional. Hope this is helpful.

although it's pricey, it works for me especially after hours computer work I need to relief the pain in my back. It strenthens my back musle.

I'm a personal trainer with my own fitness studio. I purchased this even though many of my clients can't use it due to back issues - so, for occasional use, it will do fine. It wouldn't last a week in a commercial gym - but for home use, it should do what it's supposed to do for years.
It comes with no instructions on use OR assembly, but the assembly is straight forward using the basic tools you probably have.
A word of caution. If you have existing lower-back issues (diagnosed or not), do hyperextensions with great care!
Exactly what I was hoping for February 8, 2009

I am 6'2",210 lbs and was looking for a durable back extension machine that was big enough for me. This product met my expectations and was a great price. Was also very easy to put together.
