This roller falls short when compare to my 10+ years old
Sunny Health & Fitness Roller Slide
.
1st, roll back issue others have mentioned. Brand new out of box, after just 12 reps the roll back point is short by 8 inches from the start point. You can't roll back pass that point. The more reps you do, the greater the gap gets.
2nd, very minimum lat workout. This is due to the handles' position, the further they are away from the center the more lat workout you'll get out of it. See photo, how Ab Slide has much longer handlebar. This one is going back to Amazon.

Perfect Fitness Ab Carver Pro
Get Results
The Perfect Fitness Ab Carver Pro is an ab wheel with a patented design that improves the effectiveness of ab exercises and helps to engage and strengthen muscles in the back, chest, arms, and core. Unlike traditional ab wheels, the Ab Carver Pro uses a unique carbon steel spring mechanism that provides resistance as users roll out and assistance as they roll back, engaging muscles more thoroughly. While most ab rollers feature flat wheels that only allow for rolling straight out and back, the Ab Carver Pro features a wide, spherical wheel that helps users engage all ab muscles, including obliques, by pivoting to the right and left. This helps to strengthen deep core muscles that stabilize the pelvis and spine. The Ab Carver Pro also features padded, angled, ergonomic hand grips that maximize engagement of arm muscles while remaining comfortable and stable. The Ab Carver Pro includes kneepads, a downloadable 21-day workout plan, and a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty.
Perfect Fitness Ab Carver Pro Features

|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
Resistance Rolling OutPatented carbon steel spring mechanism provides resistance while rolling out, increasing activation of core and abdominal muscles. |
Assistance on the Way BackThe mechanism offers a small amount of assistance when rolling back to the starting position, which allows users to extend farther while minimizing pressure on the lower back. |
Ultra-wide WheelThe ultra-wide, spherical wheel allows users to carve left or right to engage all sets of abdominals, including oblique muscles. The increased wheel width offers stability and balance. |
Ergonomic HandlesUnique ergonomic padded handles are angled to help optimize engagement of arm and core muscles. These non-slip handles are removable for easy transport and storage. |
How Ab Carver Pro Works
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
38 Core MusclesThe Core consists of more than just the abdominal and oblique muscles; it is comprised of a total of 38 muscles, including the glutes, quads and hamstrings. A strong core provides stability for the entire body. |
Work the Deep CoreAb Carver Pro isolates and strengthens deep core muscles, including the important muscles that connect the pelvis and the spine. Improved core strength increases balance, improves posture and decreases low back discomfort caused by sitting. |
Compound MovementsAb Caver Pro activates numerous muscles groups though the compound movements involved in the roll out exercise. Core, back, chest and arm muscles are engaged in the movement, increasing calories burned as compared to regular sit ups or planks. |
Rolling Left and RightUsing the Ab Carver Pro’s unique ultra-wide wheel design to alternate between forward roll outs and pivots to the left and right engages all four sets of abdominal muscles, including both sets of oblique muscles, and works the entire core. |
Free 21-day Workout Program

Excellent core exercise
By Eggrollking on March 20, 2019
I workout 5x /wk, everytime i am just too tired to do abs. I have not work on my abs for very very long time. Finally, found this abs roller that solve my problem. Everyday 1hour before bed I hit 25reps x 5sets total time is about 25mins, actual work time 6mins. Walaaaa n so i have my 4 packs after 1month. Highly recommended for those trying to work on core. I think you can get this at half the price else where but i am not sure of the authenticity. I just trust amazon as a brand.

A carver with broken spring can be opened by carefully removing the circular information tape on the edges of the carver on both sides. And unscrewing approx 6 Phillips head screws set into the carver's plastic body. You will notice the spring inside is held by plastic stop shown broken in the picture below. The broken end of the spring is also shown below. The other part of the spring inside the carver is also shown below. The manufacturer needs to reinforce the spring stops with metal stops which are more durable and should use more flexible and less rigid type of spring which does not break easily and should be able to withstand pressures up to 300 lbs as advertised not 200 lbs when it broken. For now I am using the carver without the spring assist, may be I should have gotten the ab wheel which is sold at a cheaper price if I had known the assist spring was so weak.

Good Design, low cost materials used
By Juggerbil on October 23, 2016
I like the design of this product, unfortunately for many users the spring which assists users in returning to original position breaks. The internal spring breaks easily with application of minor pressure. The reason for frequent spring breakage is inferior spring material and plastic spring stops used to hold the spring inside the carver. I used the carver on carpeted workout area which increased the return resistance and the spring broke within a couple of days.By Juggerbil on October 23, 2016

When I received this item I thought it was a joke: the box was open, unsealed and damaged.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 16, 2020
The item does not have the nice finish shown on the website: it looks more like it was dropped on the floor after it came out of the production line, and was left there for a few days before being thrown into a box and shipped.
The box itself was also thrown around carelessly during its trip from the factory to the distribution and delivery.
The item itself seems sturdy enough and appears to be working, although it has not seen much use, yet.
Poor presentation, but decent operation, so far.
