Need help buying a strong but cheap as possible bench for
It's probably best to check this out in the flesh; jump on it and give it a go.
The image appears to be compressed about the vertical so it is hard to tell how broad the bench padding is.
The height adjustment looks to be a pull lock. This will hold the bench vertically but you might find a little lateral movement in the bench; but only if you get unstable somehow.
Could be a good buy
