Home Gym Strength Mid-width Weight Exercise Barbell Bench | Fitness Equipment Includes a Leg Extension, Adjustable Uprights and a 2 Position Back Pad

Ok, so it's been a few weeks since I bought, assembled & started using the bench. As a starter bench, it's great. It's easy to put together I think (then again, I'm a mechanic & have some pretty good tools). If you have trouble using a screwdriver &/or have issues putting together IKEA furniture, I don't recommend this for you then. The instructional drawings could be a little better with close up shots of certain key joints/sections, but again... not rocket science.It's been holding up pretty well with the barbells and weight's I'm using. The major drawback is the size. If you are over average height, this is a small bench. You will find yourself cramp/crammed in & limited in some actions and movements. The widest point, the barbell rest, is very short. I'm using a 3' foot long bar, & the weights are clanging into the sides of the rests constantly. I have to shift how I hold the barbell in order to make sure I don't knock them into stuff.Despite it's "shortcomings" the bench feels secure, & is holding up well. I quickly see myself outgrowing this thing, but again, for the price I paid, & that it's a "beginner/novice/neophyte" type of bench, I cannot complain.If you're a pro, you know better & stay away. If you're like me, someone who just started, needs something at home to help keep in shape, or has limited space & funds... this is a decent starter.

It's a great sturdy bench so far. I weigh about 190 and have used it to benchpress over 300 pounds and it seemed to have no trouble at all supporting me safely. I'm giving it 4 stars because it came with a mismatched piece that is pretty important to the bench's stability. At the center of the bottom cross bar (between the two racks) where the middle of the t shape is made, there is a piece of metal that caps over the back while the bar that supports the back pad caps over the front and the bolts are inserted straight through all 3 parts. It was the piece of metal on the back that was too small and the holes for the bolts weren't even lined up. But it was an easy fix if you know how to use a hammer and a drill. Would recommend.

This bench is amazing very strong and heavy I love it and delivery was so fast was very impressed and was easy to put together thnxx u

Nice and sturdy bench, however, my 6 foot bar is not compatible to the bench..It does not hold the bar completely in the middle as it should.You can place it on the bar holders but when you go to bench press it will not be an even grip on the bar.Other than that a good basic bench.

Well built and sturdy. My only slight complaint is the posts that the bar rests on are not tall enough while doing incline bench press. I fitted wooden extensions into each post to lengthen them. Much safer now because I have something to lay the bar against as I'm lowering it. Hope that made sense - Without extensions doing incline can be dangerous - with arms fully extended there's a chance of the bar could miss the saddles and fall backwards.

Well made and sturdy with a good price. I like the bar height adjustments. The bench only has one tilt angle but it's really all I need and the angle is good. Fits my 6 foot Olympic bar nicely with about 1.5 inches to spare on both sides.

I bought this bench for my father. It is quite easy to assemble and solid. I recommend this product to people who are looking for cost-effective Weight exercise bench.

okay...kind of wobbly with weights over 150lbs
