If you want either the Rogue Comp or Thompson Fat Pads for sure, then it's actually just cheaper to buy from Rogue. If you select the Monster Utility Bench you can upgrade to either pad for only $30. Grand total of $295 vs your suggested $299 (plus this way there's only 1 shipping charge)-- this way is actually MUCH cheaper, considering the extra shipping and more efficient as there aren't multiple transactions. May I also add, I would select the "Shorty" version of the Rogue MU Bench if upgrading to either Fat Pad.

JDA good point on the price... in my opinion though, the Rep frame is superior. That front foot kills the MU for me. I’d personally rather get the rep frame plus their wide pad than the MU with the TFP if I was only going with one manufacturer

Did you have to drill holes to use the Thompson Fat Pad ? Just trying to figure out how how you attached the Thompson Fat Pat to the Rep Bench. I'm very interested in this setup.

Tim Pike nope, it’s fits right on. You do need to buy 3/8” x 1” bolts though. The rep bolts won’t fit. You need 4 of them. They cost about $1 at Lowe’s or Home Depot

Does your Rep Fitness Bench Review | FB-5000 WOBBLE when you sit on it ? I'm on my second front replacement leg, and when i sit on this bench, it wobbles.

Tim Pike, I have not had that problem with mine but I have heard of people getting front posts that are about 4.5” wide vs the 7.5” on perhaps an earlier version (what I have). Can you measure yours?

@@GarageGymLab Mine measures 7.75" across. Rep Fitness wants me to workout on it to how stable it is. I'm guessing they don't know what to do because they've already replace the front post once.

@Batbat Hey Everyone, This is a update. RepFitness Customer Service is Outstanding( Phenix was very helpful making things right for me.). RepFitness REPLACED my bench with a Brand New Design. They even replaced the foot about 3 weeks ago trying to remedy the wobble. The new design is stable and more room for your feet. The new design includes rubber on the front & back legs. Guys and Gals, if you want this bench- go ahead and get it. I'm very happy with this new design. Thanks Phenix & RepFitness for all your help.

can you box squat off of this? Would it be similar to a 14 inch box with 3 inch foam? I'm looking to consolidate equipment (It doesn't have to be exactly like a true box squat box) and cost. Thanks
