I bought this bench because of the good reviews and the price. After struggling to put it together, I realize that purchasing this bench is like spinning a roulette wheel. If you get a bench that was put together properly and aligned correctly, it'll be useful. Otherwise, you'll be left with nothing but frustration. Count me as the latter.
The pegs would not fit into the hole when I stretched out the leg support. Even if I could somehow manage to push it in there, it would still leave me with the same problem on the other end. I could have somehow tried to file down the hole so it would work, as an alternative to going through the hassle of returning, but I don't see why I should have to pay for a product that isn't acceptably put together out of the box.
ETA: Seeing the negative votes on my review, I will add this: The bench was great! You are guaranteed to get a great workout putting these poorly designed hunks of metal together. I sweated off about five pounds just trying to get the pin into the hole, even though there was no possible way for them to fit.
Forget the weights! Forget the sit-ups! Just buy this bench and try to put it together. You're sure not to be disappointed.
That's what you get for honesty and trying to help your fellow man out: a slap in the face. So be it. You won't be getting any more reviews from me.Get more detail about Phoenix 99255 Adjustable Slant Board.
