We had bought another bench but gave it back as the incline was important but it did not work out well. The placement of the tabs to place your feet on an incline are poorly placed, at least for me. I cannot fit my feet under them and so it is barely my toes that are underneath them. Quite a struggle while lifting on the incline but also when getting back up with weights in my hands. I am 6'4" so that may be part of the issue, but I have not had trouble with this on other benches like this. The tabs also protrude way too far out. I have hit my ankle more than once on them getting up off the bench. I have no idea the purpose of having them go out so far. It is also a much more uncomfortable bench than our previous one--lower to the ground than others, not as much padding, very narrow seat. One more problem, it comes made out of the box, but the arm holding up the back of the bench sits off center and sometimes moves partially off the standard. As a positive, it has not fallen apart after a month's use.

I was very pleased to receive the product in perfect shape (excellent packaging and ready to use). The bench is comfortable and satisfies the majority of exercises with dumbbells. The same bench was found on ebay for the same price but the seller required $45 for shipping...Amazon shipped free. :)

This is not a review, it is a question.... It doesn't say anywhere here but what is the weight capacity for this bench? I want a bench that can handle me and what weights I want to use.
