How good is the stability of this bench?

Stability is bad as i said in my review i weight about 290 and press close to 250lbs on this bench and its scary i've bent the bar that supports your back and it also makes loud popping noise its fine if you are doing 225 and under but once u go up in the weight and try to max it becomes unstable. Still a very nice useful machine and the squat rack works for other things!!

Pretty good.alot people complain about the seat wobble.when you have 1 tube inside another for the bench to slide to different positions its natural.just take your time make sure all bolts are tight.

Im dam near 300lbs, and it's the most stable of any weight Benches that I ever owned. The width of the frame is about 3 inches wide, this is going to be more than likely the last bench I ever purchase due to it's durability.

It's holding up fairly well. It's not a high quality product , so I expected to have to be cautious with it so as not to cause damage. The bench does wobble a bit, I find myself having to tight the screws in the legs somewhat regularly. I've had mine for several months now and use it often, it hasn't scratched much at all.

The bench is all very sturdy plastic and very stable. The adjustable leg height is a plus. It is larger than most benches so be sure to measure your shower or tub.

No, it's very stable. I do assisted pull ups with a band at 280 lbs and it doesn't even wabble. Hope this helps.

I'm actually using it for lightweight, hobby-type projects. The bench itself is very sturdy but I haven't stress-tested it.

The frame of the whole bench should be sturdy for the most part. the bench shouldn't be wobbly.

I'm not exactly sure about that. However, just from my experience - I am about 220 pounds and it hasn't broken on me yet, but it does seem to complain a bit when I'm shifting around. It's a nice bench, but if I could afford a nicer bench, I think I would go for a bit better one. However, this one fills the bill for now. Hope this helps some.

Its a pretty sturdy storage bench. We have it at the end of our king sized bed. My husband & I use it to sit on to put on shoes or dress the kids. I weight about 155lbs and he weights about 210lbs. He has also stood on it to change a light bulb...which worried me...but it held up all his weight just fine.

My husband and I sit on it for a total of over 400 lbs. It's a sturdy bench, but of course, I can't promise that the concentrated weight of one person over 500 pounds would be safe. However, in assembling it, I noticed that the weight of the seat is resting ON the legs. It is not just screwed TO the legs, so you're not depending on the strength of screws to hold the weight. I would give it a try.

No not this bench. Its not sturdy. I bought this for my brothers. They are about 150lbs and it wobbles sometimes. Its more for beginners and lightweights

It is a quality Bench. It adjust to every possible workout position. I bought it because it can fold down to fit under a bed.

I don't think it's flimsy. For the price I don't think you'll find something better. Only downfall for me is the decline position. I don't care for the decline. It's not gym quality but works well for home. Chest flys or bench presses causes no problems with stability. I guess if you're a heavy power lifter or something it may be in inadequate.

The bench can "slide" a bit, but is not wobbly during bench movements. It is definitely worth the money, especially considering it goes to military, incline, flat, and decline. If I would have gotten just the power rack, then I would have looked elsewhere (craigslist) for a bench.

This bench is about as solid as they get. I think the manual said it can handle 480lbs; something like that. Decline angle is a little low and the stabilizers near the seat tend to get in the way. This will definitely not wobble though.

It's not too heavy, but it stays put and is a solid bench. The package itself says it's 60 pounds so it should be somewhere close to that.

The bench is nice and the seat is level. However, it is not very stable. A strong wind can make it tip.
