Another Excellent Gold's Gym Product
Solid structure, sound welds, nice design. High quality merchandise for the price. Better than average, even for a former gym rat. Santa bought it for my 16 and 14 yr. old sons, and I'm glad he did. We have Olympic plates and bars - wouldn't use anything but - and this bench and squat rack is the crown jewel in our home gym. Love it.

Bad Bench and Squat Rack. Lost and Flimsy.
horrible bench and squat rack.. after being built and put together everything was still shaking. the bench right from the start sucked because the support to adjust the height is very flimsy and loose. The weld completely broke off while I was doing my workout and top half the bench broke off.. I'll try to add photos for proof. Need Refund soon.

    This thing shipped super quick and was fairly easy to assemble. It seems stuedy enough. Is it a pro gym level bench? No, but it is fine for my at home gym, especially for the price I paid 129. for the bench and Rack. I only gave 4 stars because if you don't use the olympic plate adapter on the leg/curl attachment then you have to get your own clip.

    Used
    They sent me a product that had previously been used and opened. Parts are missing. Box was torn into pieces. Instructions don't work with parts provided.

    Leaning tower.
    The squat rack has a leaning post. Safety is top priority while lifting weights. No replacements only returns. Buyer beware, quality and customer service isn't what it used to be.

    Extraordinary
    Wow, this is actually a nice bench! I'd say it was 8/10 setting it up pretty easy, ran into at least 2 problems but my mistakes. The metal bar that connects the Platform for the rack did have a dent in it so I'm not about to connect it yet. But I think that was the shipping company because everything else was 10/10. That's a easy 10 minute blow dryer fix though. Worth the money. Glad I got it.

    Good and affordable
    Really nice product for the price. It took me a bit to setup but its actually an easy instruction just didnt have lots of time at the moment. Maybe 1.5hrs total for setup.

    Good for moderate usage. Good equipment at a low
    The equipment is solid and the price is fair for the quality of the material. The bench is foamy and comfortable but feels like it'll tear soon. The squat frame is composed of light but wide metal tubing and is sturdy enough. Overall pleased with the product.

    The finish doesn't look like the stock photo
    It took about 2 hours to put together. You need a socket set. The material does not look like the photo. The stock photo is all black with Weider in red. There are no words on my bench and it's mixed with black and gray. I would rather have the finish in the stock photo. However, the product is sturdy and great for me. I'm a 35 athletic female and my Orangetheory trainer comes and works out too while the gyms are closed due to Covid19. It's a great set up for the price!

    Second one
    This weight bench is manufactured under different names but is exactly the same except the color scheme. It is a excellent weight bench. I have one at my house and recently bought one for my son for his house. It is good quality and very functional. Just make sure you don't loose the plastic caps on the ends of the base. The edges under it hurt.

    Very complete and stable bench and rack.
    Excellent, very flexible bench and rack. It's also very stable. Ignore the negative reviews saying it isn't. Check YouTube, there is a guy that does a complete review, and in a follow up video he demonstrates how steady the rack is.

    Great features and very affordable!
    Assembly took just over 2 hours with my husband's help. Make sure you have lots of tools, especially an adjustable wrench and a socket wrench set. All parts seem very strong and durable. The only thing that will eventually break would be the cushion seams on the weight bench. I like how we have a separate weight rack for squats and a very versatile bench. The only thing is we'll have to move the bench depending on if we want to bench press or do squats. Overall, this is a great buy and I'm excited to see my results! Just a heads up, there are a few small pieces shown on the instructions, but they might already be somewhat assembled, so you might think you lost a piece, but it's already where it should be. Another thing, the weight bench accommodates 2" olympic sized plates. We have this set up in our two car garage. There is still room on one side to park one of our cars. See the photos I took.

    Great design and build quality!
    Fantastic set for the price and the order/delivery process was painless. I paired it with a 160lb CAP weight set with bars and a $25 mat from Academy Sports and couldn't be happier! Absolutely no regrets! I opted to not use the leg extensions for personal preference (their build quality is also excellent) so you will not see them in my pic. My 14 year olf son and I both also love the integrated curl bar.

    Everything I Need at Home
    I'm glad I purchased this bench. I spent several months researching home gyms and was very willing to pay top dollar, but the reviews on this workout gym were pretty good consistent. I'm a little woman and I put this together alone in a few hours with two kids running around. The instructions are super easy to understand with correlating pictures. Staying competively fit is extremely important to me but paying $80 a month just to get into the door of a crowded gym is absurd to me so I had to do something. I can work every part of my body even more efficiently now that I can take my time. The equipment comes with a a great photo diagram for different exercises using the bench that I find helpful. I will say that the shipping was quick but there were pieces sticking out and falling out of the box so I feared I lost some pieces even though I didn't but it did scratch my hardwood floors in the foyer which made my husband unhappy. Aside from that, I love it.

    Good for price
    The uprights both lean to one side. Makes me question structural integrity. Pain to make adjustments because you have to unscrew both sides. Decline position is hardly decline. Otherwise nice to have a "spotter" when lifting heavy and not a bad buy for the price. Also during incline the seat should sit up. Butt wants to slide.
