Turn to the Power Pro Olympic bench from Phoenix Health & Fitness, a full Olympic-size bench that offers incline, decline, and flat bench positions. The Power Pro is not a "cheater" by any definition, with uprights that measure 42 inches apart on the inside for serious stability. The bench is also extremely versatile, with deluxe lat tower and arm curl attachments, along with a leg lift station with its own curl bar. As a result, you can work out virtually any muscle group in the comfort of your own home. And thanks to the heavy-duty 3-inch steel uprights and main frame, you needn't worry about the bench buckling to the pressure any time soon. In fact, the Power Pro is tested to the following weight limits: 300 pounds for the bench, 400 pounds for the uprights, and 150 pounds for the leg lift and lat tower (the bench isn't recommended or guaranteed for use over these limits). Other details include a built-in squat rack in the rear, three Olympic weight plate adapters and spring clips, and adjustable uprights that conform to multiple uses. The Power Pro, which measures 88 by 83 by 60 inches (W x H x D), also carries a 90-day warranty on labor and a one-year warranty on the frame.

Ok for price if you're not too tall.
For the price this low-end home gym is generally able to do the things I wanted a cheap home gym to do. However, there are a few issues you need to consider before buying it. The biggest issue is ergonometric - this unit is not designed to be used by anyone over perhaps 5'10" or 5'11". I'm 6'1" and this creates problems for me. I have to find work-arounds to use a unit designed for people smaller than me. The problem is that form is very important when doing the exercises (when you don't pay attention to form, you either reduce the effectiveness of the exercise or risk injury) and finding work-arounds sometimes compromises your form during the exercise.
There are also a few quality issues but these were not entirely unexpected considering the price of the unit. It would have been nice if the bench padding were a little better but its adequate. The two most annoying quality issues involve the plate bars (the bars that hold the weights). This first issue was with the plate...

Great value
I did a lot of research before purchasing this bench because:
1) The pictures show both the lat and preacher extensions in their *storage* locations, so I wasn't able to see how they were usable from the pictures on the interwebs.
2) Comparable benches start in the $400-$500 range, and this sells for about half that...
3) The fact that it accommodated both Olympic and Standard weights was mysterious.
I've been using it for ~2 weeks now, and I can comfortably say that I would purchase it again. The lat and preacher extensions both fit in the usual location (into the upright that the leg extension comes off of), and work great. The product ships with Olympic "sleeves" and standard-sized plate poles (on the leg extension for example), so you're supposed to slip the sleeve over the poles (and your standard bar if you have one) if you want to use it with Olympic plates. As I have standard weights, this was great for me. I can't comment on how it performs...
Most amazing piece of gym equipment i've owned!!!
Just like a lot of other people that get home gyms for the simple reason of not going to the gym for personal reasons, I too was looking for the most parts an all in one type. I don't like those cable/rod type machines, they just don't give you that being back in the gym type of feeling. So after some positive reviews, good price and most importantly, the Lat pull bar option, made me go with this bench. I had it shipped to my home in a really heavy box. The assembly was very difficult and some of the instruction was just inadequate especially assembling the Lat bar and required just some common sense. Having your own wrench/socket set helps big time. Because of the lack of instruction, I first didn't put the plastic cuffs on the lat bar that first go in the base and at top and in between the moving mechanism which made it very uneven and frictional. I think one of the other reviewers probably made the same mistake and mentioned something about the weights being uneven. Once I figured...
