Loves their BlackWing: heavy and built like a tank; uses the 14-inch pads.

Has had the Nighthawk since last Black Friday; a great bench, though they wish it had more back angles.

Their AB-3000 2.0 was a little wobbly on the single front foot but never felt unsafe; the Nighthawk has the same issue, a bit less.

Owns the AB-5200 2.0, calls it a tank that takes anything and is very pleased with its build quality, padding and cover.

“I’d go with what I own: Rep 5200 2.0. It is a tank and will take anything I throw at it. I’m fortunate to have ways to do all the things the attachments for other benches do.”

Owns a Super Bench PRO V2, loves it and uses it more than their REP bench.

Upgraded from the AB-3100 to the Nighthawk a year ago; a noticeable difference, and they love it.

Loves their Nighthawk, says it's fine for most people and they don't notice the seat gap.

“I have the nighthawk and absolutely love it. I couldn’t imagine getting a heavier bench unless you’re like 6 foot four 275 pounds or something ridiculous the nighthawk is perfectly fine for most people.”

Chose the Nighthawk over the BlackWing, ABX and Apex; finds it awesome, extremely well built and good-looking, and much lighter to move than the BlackWing.

The front foot plate screw holes on their Nighthawk weren't drilled properly; REP sent a whole new bench without needing the old one back, which convinced them to buy an Ares.

Sold an AB-3000 2.0 to 'upgrade' to the Nighthawk and regrets it: the Nighthawk is only better for wheeling around, while the AB-3000 had a higher weight limit and a wider pad.

Overall satisfied with the Nighthawk: well built, firm but comfortable pad, easy to move and adjust, very stable except the front leg lifts slightly during sit-ups at low angles; the leg roller arrived without hardware, a threaded pin was damaged, and REP support was slow.

“The knurl on the various handles are awesome. Green looks really good. Easy to move around and adjust. Bench padding is firm but comfortable. Much better than the newer Rogue benches I've used.”

Owns a Nighthawk; says it doesn't budge and is $500 cheaper than Rogue's adjustable bench.
