Features & Highlights

  • Bolt-Together Design – The FB-3000 has a bolt-together design using 2×2 11-gauge steel. It ships disassembled and it can be fully assembled within 10 minutes by simply fastening the legs to the frame and attaching the pad.
  • Weight Limit – The REP FB-3000 offers a 700lb rating. When determining weight limit, it’s important to remember that this includes the bar weight and your body weight. As an example, a 200lb lifter could safely lift 500lbs on this bench. 
  • Not IPF Height – This bench measures 18″ tall from the floor, which puts it just outside of the ~17.7″ max height allowed by the IPF.
  • Grippy Vinyl – This bench offers the same grippy vinyl that the more expensive FB-5000 and FB-4000 benches offer. The vinyl is textured to provide a stickier surface so you don’t slide around the bench while lifting.  
  • Color Options – One nice feature of the FB-3000 is that it comes in multiple colors, which isn’t common for a budget utility bench. It’s currently offered in blue, red, black, and metallic black. The standard black version of the bench can be purchased for slightly less money.
  • Wide Pad Compatible – You can mount a wide pad to this bench frame with the REP wide pad.
  • Optional Wall Mount – Along with the FB-3000, you have the option to purchase the REP wall-mount for convenient storage off of the floor.

Positive

  • “It is very sturdy and the pad material is sufficiently grippy.”
  • “Nice bench. I’m happy with it. Quality feels nice and it’s sturdy. I’d buy another one.”
  • “Perfect. Super stabile, I’ve done step ups and bench presses, jumped onto it, pushups on it, squats, etc. it’s super steady, you won’t regret it.”
  • “The build quality of this bench is insane for the price point. Packaging was spot on and powder coated metal was protected. Instructions were spot on. Highly exceeds my expectations.”
  • “Bomb proof weight bench. I wanted something sturdy for bench pressing on. This thing is built like a tank. Very sturdy and solid, no wiggle to it at all. Light enough to move around but they used very heavy gauge steal. Great overall bench.”
  • “My husband is a serious weight lifter and he loves this bench. The blue is real cool looking and it’s very sturdy.”

Critical

  • “Slightly off balance; gets the job done.”
  • “This was fine for a few months, but here we are… 7 months later and the staples are falling out all over the place. Honestly, I’m not sure the cover will make it another 7 months.”
