This bench is built very well and is heavy duty but the backrest is too low and doesn’t offer the support I need when doing dumbbell shoulder press. I have used numerous benches of this type and am disappointed by how this one feels in comparison, especially due to the high price I paid for it. If you are a very short person, maybe under 5’5” it may work for you. Overall it’s not a comfortable bench for doing the only thing I bought it for... shoulder pressing heavy dumbbells.
Pros
Very heavy duty
Looks nice
Cons
Seat backrest is too low
Ergonomics don?t feel right when using heavy weight over head.

I purchased this piece for my home gym and have been completely satisfied with it. It is heavy duty and is a great addition to my gym. It even comes from the factory with rubber floor protectors. You won't find a better piece for double the price.
