(More customer reviews)My bench prior to this was rated at 300lbs capacity and quickly became a major safety concern as my 5x5 training progressed. Trying to find a bench I could afford and was rated at least 600lbs capacity was proving impossible and I was about to cave in and dish out $400 for a strong bench when I came across this one. I spent some time researching it and went to the Hoist website and even emailed their customer service about the boasted 800lb capacity which I found hard to believe at the $144 price. I received 4 emails from 4 different Hoist service reps within 24 hrs and all confirmed the 800lb capacity. No reviews for this bench on Amazon and I put quite a lot of faith in those but I took a chance and ordered it. It arrived in good time well packaged. No missing parts. No damage. One of the best spiral bound parts/assembly/owners manual I've ever seen for fitness equipment. The unit comes mostly assembled except for: the rear foot, the back and seat pads and the handle. These are easy to lag screw and bolt up in under 10 minutes. Once assembled I tried all the moving parts with no issues. I moved the bench into my rack for bench presses & inclines and it rolls easily on its wheels. My impressions from using this bench thus far: 1. it's solid as a rock! 2. the back and seat pads are extra firm which happens to be a personal preference for me. 3. there are no ill-fitting parts to cause unwanted movement or noise while under load. 4. when flat for bench presses the height of the bench is a low 15 inches which is perfect for a short guy like me (5'6") and for doing box squats. This bench has turned out to be a great investment for me in quality, strength and economy and worthy of more than a mere 5 stars. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that it came with 2 bottles of touch up paint which were not needed. Hope you find this review helpful. ~Mike
