1 / 7CAP Barbell FM-CS604 Adjustable FID Workout Bench
Workout: The CAP Barbell FM-CS604 is an adjustable strength-training bench with six back-pad positions and three seat-pad positions. Its listed 500-pound recommended maximum capacity is distinct from the manufacturer’s claim that it was tested to hold up to 1000 lbs, and customer feedback includes concerns about capacity claims.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Separate back and seat adjustments offer more positioning options than a fixed flat bench.
- Wheels and a handle can make repositioning the 35.3-pound bench more manageable.
- Steel construction and contoured padding are specified for home strength training.
Cons
- The listed footprint is 56 inches long by 27 inches wide, so it needs substantial floor space when assembled.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The manufacturer lists a recommended maximum weight capacity of 500 pounds while separately claiming testing based on ASTM standards to hold up to 1000 lbs. Customer feedback also reports concerns about misleading capacity specifications. Treat 500 pounds as the stated recommendation and clarify how the load is defined before relying on the higher test claim. The manufacturer also says rack or cage use is possible, but those are sold separately.

Customer feedback describes the bench as good value, but reports mixed impressions of its quality, ranging from very good to poor construction. Some customers also complain about the weight-capacity specifications. Those concerns matter because the listing gives a 500-pound recommended maximum alongside a separate 1000 lbs test claim. The aggregate ratings are generally favorable but include a meaningful spread across lower star categories, so they do not settle questions about construction or capacity.
Positive themes
- Customers describe it as good value for money.
Negative themes
- Some customers complain that the weight-capacity specifications are misleading.
Mixed feedback
- Feedback on build quality is mixed, with reports ranging from very good to poor construction.
