DANGEROUS PRODUCT - DO NOT BUY
DO NOT BUY THS WEIGHT BENCH. the back collapsed from incline to full decline while I was using it. My arm then got crushed under one of the dumbbells I was lifting. I spent the evening of July 4th in the emergency room and just finished surgery to install a plate in my arm. It will take three months to fully heal.
I followed all instructions in putting it together. The problem is that the spring-loaded pin that locks the back in place was only partly engaged. The bench comes almost fully assembled so this is the result of poor manufacturing tolerances as opposed to any user error. It supported my weight when I sat in it but when I lifted two 50 pound dumbbells to do an incline bench press it gave way.
Please do not even consider it. This bench is just plain dangerous.
