Pros: Relatively inexpensive; folds; works entire ab area.
Cons: Not necessary; not for the obese; can allow hyper-extensions.
Summary: When my friend asked me if I thought she should be the Ab Lounge by Fitness Quest for $175.00 I said yes. Since then I have used it and am happy to say she is using it. Why I said yes to her and perhaps I might have said no to someone else will be in ...

Cons: Still haven't figured out how to fold it, but it works fantastic, so who cares!?
Summary: Just bought my Ab Lounger 5 days ago and have already lost 6 1/2 pounds, and am already SEEING and feeling better muscle tone in not only my abdominal area, but my back, arms, butt, hips and upper legs. I have only been working out on it for about 5 ...

Pros: Fun and easy to use
Cons: Not very heavy, wobbly
Summary: I am one to try anything once. And after my husband brought this beach chair of an ab workout for his tummy, I had to try it out for myself. Now, those of you who have read my reviews, know that a car hot my car last summer, and the seatbelt injured my ...

Pros: It gets you OFF the floor and takes the strain off your neck and back.
Cons: The lack of proper handles and pedals, which is corrected in the newer version.
Summary: I have the original version of the Ab Lounge, but am seriously considering upgrading to the new version -- specifically for the addition of the Iso-Grips (for use with one's hands) and the foot pedals. I am already extremely pleased with the version I ...

Pros: Gets you off the floor.

Pros: Ease of use, great alternative to painful floor exercises.
Cons: Manufactured by FitnessQuest, a company that exhibits zero concern in regard to customer service/satisfaction.

Pros: NONE!!!!!
Cons: TOO MANY LITTLE PARTS. IT TAKES FOREVER TO PUT TOGETHER AND DOES NOT WORK.
Summary: What a waste of time and money. This is the worst piece of exercise equipment I have ever purchased. It has so many small pieces and it takes so much time and effort to put together. After all that work, it didn't work. There was no extension so

Pros: There really is nothing that is good about it, its a total waste of money!
Cons: large,expensive,only one movement, wast of your time
Summary: After taking hours to put together, the ab lounge is large and highly difficult to store..when you think about it you can only do one exercise over and over and eventually, your body becomes accustomed to that and other exercises are needed. Also the

Pros: Comfortable aid in abdominal workouts
Cons: Bulkier than advertised, some dis-assembly required to fold away
Summary: Using this equipment requires concentration on muscle usage. You can easily use the wrong muscles in your arms and your back instead of the abs you hope to slim and tone. Not ideal equipment for small rooms or apartments, it's quite

Pros: Reasonably priced. Sturdy.
Cons: Can cause injury - talk to your doctor before purchasing.
Summary: I'm sure lots of folks have a good experience with this product. I just came back from the Physical Therapist, and realized that the lower back problems I now have started suspiciously around the same time I bought my AB Lounge. He explained that for a

Summary: HI, I JUST PURCHASED THE AB LOUNGER FOR 93.00 AT SAM/WALMART IT IS A VERY GOOD MACHINE TO USE TO WORK YOUR ABS IN ONLY A FEW REPS, YOU CAN FEEL IT WORKING, HOPEFULLY I WILL NOT GET BORED AND NOT USE IT, BUT FOR JUST STARTING OUT, IT SEEMS TO BE DOING
