How is this different from XM-4418? Is the seat independently adjustable to get a full decline?

Sorry I'm so late getting back to you, as I was on vacation. I don't know how it differs from XM-4418. The seat does not adjust, but the seat back does adjust to many positions. I must tell you, this is the best bench I have ever had.

The 4419 is adjustable as described by rebuldela and nance. My 4419 adjusts to a stable flat decline which is entirely structurally reliable for all my needs. It also can be adjusted so that the head end is slightly below or slightly above flat. Not sure what definition questioner is giving to decline, assuming full decline means flat bench. Believe a finer adjustment could even be achieved if owner willing to drill holes in main frame to finely adjust to desired bench angle. As has been stated, seat pad is not adjustable.

The XM-4419 has a pin system to adjust the back. The pin system also screws in once you adjust the back to where you want it. It looks to be much more stable than the adjustment system on the XM-4418. On the XM-4418 the back looks like it can easily slide off the supports which isn't cool when you have weights hanging over your head. That is really the only difference that I can see. XMark probably changed the back adjustment system because it wasn't secure enough on the XM-4418.

the seat on the 4419 model is non adjustable,and the way the bench goes from flat/incline/decline is different.

No. It is one long bench. So there is no adjustable seat. You can however lower one leg to create a very awkward but usable incline/decline bench.

I have two of these seats, and they work fine. There's some kind of hydraulic mechanism that allows the seat and lid to slowly drop, instead of slamming down. Maybe the hydraulic mechanism was set too strong in yours, that's causing the problem. I don't know if it's adjustable. You may want to contact the manufacturer about it.

Jim I have found the chair to be fast and comfortable however if you need a chest or lapse drop I don't believe this unit is equipped with that you would have to make your own arrangements also if you do not have use of a right or left and I'm not sure what modifications can be set up for mouth controls. This is a question that is best answered by the staff of wheelchair 88.com

To restate as one of the other responders said, the seat moves with the back of the chair, there is no separated mechanism to adjust the seat angle. Albeit, it is a great chair for the $$$

There is only one adjustment, as far as I can see: the height, which works by pulling up on the lever with the concave disk handle. To lower the seat, you need to be sitting on it (or applying downward pressure). I don't see what that big knob under the seat does.

Yes, it does not have a fine adjustment. There are only a couple of reclining positions.

The main differences that I see are that this model has adjustable roller pads for your feet and the optional (sold separately) preacer curl and leg extension attachments. it also has a better seat adjustment IMHO.

The height of the seat is not separately adjustable. It goes up and down with the height adjustment of the support bard.

The seat can be adjusted and we had it adjusted high for my mother and I don't think it lowered the weight capacity. Also the grab bars also were very helpful even if they do not have as much upper body strength. My mother was pretty weak and was still about to get up with and sometimes without the use of the grab bars with the seat raised.

My husband and I are both "seniors". I started out by going to Wal-Mart and purchasing a gel seat pad to go over the original seat. This still was very uncomfortable for us. Returned that cover and purchased a whole new regular bike seat from Wal-Mart in a totally different design. A nice, wide seat. This seat works great though my husband did have to modify the plate to attach this type of seat onto an exercise bike. There are online sites that carry mounting systems to attach a regular bike seat to exercise bikes. Now we can both use the bike and be comfortable.

Adjusting the seat location is difficult. I asked my grandsonl to make the adjustment for me, which he did, but I still need a back cushion. The bike is not as efficient as I might like, but it works well. Different programs are simply too vague to be helpful. I just ride while watching the tv. I also use a treadmill and a shiatsu massage chair and trade off one device at a time. Dorothy

the adjustment is pretty easy. you can adjust to any length you want. my 43lb dog can put her feet on the arm rest of my truck and stick her head out the window, and that is from the middle seat belt. i really like this product. it works best with a harness.

I purchased this seat from Amazon. Not aware of variance in model numbers. It appears that one just have EP in front of the number. As another buyer stated it is an excellent seat and well constructed. My bichon can now look out of my SUV and be safe and secure at the same time. I use it with a harness and the provided strap.

Yes to both questions. The seat is adjustable manually. There is a knob underneath the seat. The console allows you to electronically adjust the resistance of the pedal. One note - the straps that hold your feet to the pedal broke off after about a year and a half. They weren't very durable. However, once I became accustomed to not using the strap, I actually preferred it that way.

The seat is adjustable front to back to get your feet where they belong, on the pedals. You will need to be careful to keep your shoestrings from snapping against the center hub, and your toes need to be in a neutral position or pointed in slightly to prevent your ankles from smacking the pedal arms. If I had it to do over, I'd have paid the extra $100 or so to get the next model up, with more features and a better readout panel.

It converts from a harnessed seat to a high back belt positioning booster. It doesn't convert to a backless booster.
