Bench worked fine for my workout at the starting strength gym but it is very uncomfortable. It is just wood with no padding. It did not feel good trying to put shoulders back into it for bench.
I really did not like these. I don't like that they are just straight bolts and not like j-cups. I did not like that they screw in as it took too much time to change them. They did hold well and once screwed in they will not move.
This worked well. They had several bars in it at the starting strength gym. They had regular powers bars and specialty bars in it. It held them easily and was easy to get the bar out and in.
