Hi really couldn't tell you the capacity, sturdier then the first one I bought, had to ship that one back. For the money this one meets my needs, I do Push ups ,bar dips, militayry press sitting with 25 lbs and bench press with 35 lbs.

It is sturdy. I'm 200 lbs. and not even close to an issue. Welded steel is strong. I'm happy with mine.

No idea. I weigh about 200lbs and I use 50-75lb dumbells and have no issues.

I have had over 400lbs combined weight on it and I havent noticed any problems. Like others pointed out it is a bit narrow and but I have no complaints about that. I am rather tall so the bigger problem is the height but it sure gets the job done and is very easy to tuck away.

Don't know, but I weigh about 200 lbs and there is no doubt to me that could easily support 250. BUT it is very narrow, and anyone over 200 may want to look elsewhere for that reason. PS the width is my only real complaint.

Mine is currently standing up to 500lbs. I'm contacting the company to get an official number.

Just heard back from customer support. The official maximum load limit is 500 pounds (person plus weights).

I'm not sure how much weight the bench could hold but I think smaller people could sit on it. It's pretty sturdy but it isn't a solid piece of wood either.

The bench is pretty sturdy. My husband sits on it to put his shoes on and he weighs nearly 300 lbs.

Allegedly the bench is made for sitting or to be used as a table. If you have items inside the bench to support the weight, I would say it could take up to 150 lbs; however, without the support I would only trust 20-30 lbs of weight.

The bench holds both of us, I am about 215 lbs and my wife is 140 lbs. The bench seems light, less than 22 lbs, either of us can move it extremely easily.

This bench is very sturdy, but I doubt it would hold that much weight. Check the info from the manufacturer for weight limits. There is a larger bench advertised, so you might want to compare with that one as it may hold more weight.

I'm not sure, but I weigh about 125 lbs. and can sit on the bench without it collapsing. It is actually quite sturdy and easily supports the two preschoolers who use it. We used it at Christmas with the preschoolers plus a 2nd grade boy, and it held all 3 kids fine.

In this review by "S.Rose" ( http://www.amazon.com/review/R3H0S76MASCWWZ/ref=cm_cr_pr_cmt?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000R11G2I&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag=#wasThisHelpful ) she asks about the maximum weight capacity of the bench. One of the commenters (Crystal) replied saying, "Called Body Solid. They report the maximum weight limit is 500 lbs." Looks like 500lbs is the limit.

Approximately 50 lbs. I do not recommend this bench as the bench locking mechanisms are unstable. The flat back support failed in the lying position and have way into the decline position while I was benching 55lb dumbbells. I was very lucky I did not get seriously hurt. Needless to say, I discarded this bench and purchased a namebrand called Fitness Gear.

My husband's weight is 220 and he uses the bench on a regular basis, but we feel that it will hold up to more than that, up to probably 275-300. It's very sturdy.

Mary,Weight isn't an issue here as the bench is an inferior product. Don't buy it! Our original one came with 2 broken parts then a subsequent bench arrived with the SAME broken parts! Find a better one!

I own one of these, and I do not see any mention of a weight limit on the bench, not do I remember seeing anything in the literature. However, I can tell you that the construction is pretty sturdy, so I'd guess that it would hold at least 200 lbs, and may be good to 250 lbs, as long as one is not jumping or "plopping" on it.
