Rank #6 in Best Roman Chair 2026: 10 Ranked by Frame Weight, Not Capacity Badges
BodyWaker 2-in-1 Foldable Hyperextension Bench
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The BODYWAKER roman chair sits at number six in this guide. It is listed at £214.01, which is less than the £224.31 and £331.64 chairs the guide names elsewhere, and it carries a 4.1 rating from 42 ratings. What it asks you to believe is the 330 lb maximum weight capacity in the spec field, on a frame that weighs 9.48 kg and measures 101.9 x 42 x 71 cm.
The counts do not line up. The rating breakdown stored with the same listing adds to 100 reviews — 59 five-star, 13 four-star, 12 three-star, 13 two-star and 3 one-star — while the review field on the page reads (42). A 4.1 average is what the 100-review breakdown produces. The brand and manufacturer fields both read BODYWAKER, yet the fifth bullet calls the product "the Sculpt Trainer". Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from a bench we bought and tested.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“This is a very versatile piece of equipment for the price. It's held up great after 6 months of moderate use. The videos show exactly how it can be used however, if you're muscular and over 250 lbs, I would pay $100 more, for a wider and thicker metal unit. This unit is ideal for someone under 200lbs body weight. I've found that this unit really is intended to be used by women or men under 6 feet tall for optimal range of motion; this becomes apparent when doing preacher curls with moderate weight, as the pads are too thin and narrow for any chest over 46 inches. Overall, I am satisfied with this purchase as the faux leather is holding up.”
Verified purchase“Love this bench, I have it next to my bed so I can do some sit ups and back exercises whenever I walk near it. The quality is great. Im 5'9 in height and it's good for me.”

Questions people ask
How much weight will the BODYWAKER roman chair take?
The spec field lists a maximum weight capacity of 330 pounds. The single review that deals with this figure suggests a lighter user, so treat the 330 lb as the listing's claim rather than a tested limit.
How many reviews does the BODYWAKER bench actually have?
The page states 42 ratings. The star breakdown in the same record adds to 100 — 59 five-star, 13 four-star, 12 three-star, 13 two-star and 3 one-star — and the quoted 4.1 average matches that larger set.
Can the BODYWAKER roman chair be folded away?
Yes. The storage bullet says the bench has a folding feature and a carrying strap in the middle for moving it, which is what makes it workable in a small room.
What adjustments does the BODYWAKER RC001 offer?
The listing gives 10 levels of height adjustment, 2 levels of incline adjustment and adjustable leg hooks, and says these accommodate users of different heights.
Is it a roman chair or a weight bench?
The listing describes a two-in-one design that switches between roman chair and weight bench, and claims over 20 whole-body exercises can be done on it. That is the listing's claim, not a count we made.
Why does the listing mention a "Sculpt Trainer"?
The fifth bullet reads "this the Sculpt Trainer can be easily stored", while the brand and manufacturer fields both read BODYWAKER. The listing does not explain whether these are the same product or two names for it.
