The bench and rack feel sturdy once assembled. Completely satisfied with it as part of a home gym. My only complaint is that the bench is high off the ground so it makes for awkward angles when doing exercises such as tricep dips or hip thrusts with a barbell.

Works great! Directions were easy to follow. Sturdy enough to feel safe under unlike some of the other cheaper products. Only thing I can say could be better is the bench. It only goes to 75 degrees not perpendicular. So I give it a 9.5/10 due to that. Probably won’t be able to beat it for the price though. I am happy with my purchase.

Extension & Cutl

Wanted leg curl/ext machine and most priced too high for my budget right now- purchased this so I could have at least something... it’s ok. Extension is better than curl but a bit wobbly. Curls are challenging face down on the bench as it is narrow and tappers, no place to hold on either. The taller/bigger you are the harder it is to use. It’s an ok piece of equipment and it enables me to do extension at home. If your missing extension it’s a short term fix. But overall not heavy duty or versatile.

For the money this is a very good started bench w/ squat rack. Have been able to do about 90% of lifts I would do at the gym. I would liked to have gotten cage with pulleys and additional items but it just wasn’t in the budget. Would highly recommend this set for a beginner like myself.

I purchased this item for my husband. Since the quarantine, he’s been working out from home, so I wanted to add to his collection. The price is great and it gets the job done.

Everything seems almost okay but the packaging lefts some of the foam rollers dented and the bench looks unstable. There’s a part on the bottom of the bench that holds it up that is not welded and it looks like it’s gonna break.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Solid bench and rack, but the leg extension feels unstable and isn’t comfortable. Bench would be better without it honestly. Also the bench is a bit higher off the ground than I would prefer.

Excellent Quality! Super easy to buy and have delivered. Honestly, I was a bit skeptical at first, as I didn’t even know they sold exercise equipment. Now I search for everything I need on Best Buy app before I buy anywhere else!! If they have it I buy it there.
