Rank #1 in Best Preacher Curl Bench 2026: 8 Ranked, One 900 lbs Claim That Isn't
Fostoy Foldable Weight Bench with Preacher Pad and Leg Extension
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Fostoy foldable weight bench sits at number one in this guide at £104.49, and it is the cheaper half of an awkward pair. The guide carries two listings whose spec sheets match almost line for line — 7 backrest positions, 3 arm positions, 2 leg curl positions, 110 lbs of plate load, 800 lbs capacity — with £15.50 between them. Nothing in either specification explains that gap, so on the paperwork the price is doing the talking rather than the hardware.
The number on this one that does not survive contact with the reviews is the 110 lbs. The listing says you can place 110 lbs of barbell plates on the incline bench; one of the 193 reviewers, on an overall rating of 4.4, reports getting no more than about 10 lbs onto the leg raise before it becomes the limiting factor. Fostoy's own figures for the frame are steadier: 16.3 kg item weight, alloy steel, and a stated maximum of 800 pounds. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing and from the customer reviews left on it, not from a bench we have measured or lifted on ourselves.
How those 193 ratings break down

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“More than happy with this bench after replacing it with a Yoleo bench which had a manufacturer fault with the welding. Setup of the bench was easy due to the majority of the bench being pre-assembled. Only downside is what's been mentioned in previous reviews. After using the leg raise I noticed (in my case) that I can't put much more than 10lbs on, but still not a deal breaker for me as I have adjustable weights, set them to 16kg each and put them on the back legs and after which I have no problem. Overall for a bench in this price range you can't go wrong”
Verified purchase“Good sturdy product. I am 105kg and exercise with extra 50 Kg. Easy to assemble. Also a pleasant change from the usual black vinyl...”
