Hey guys, so I recently bought a bench dirt cheap and it looked pretty sturdy.
So, I've scoured the net and I can't for the life of me find any information on the weight rating.
It turns out, it was a part of a York 2001 Multi-Gym (Product No. #5000), but I only have the bench, none of the other gadgets.
I need to find out how much I can load on this bench without crushing my skull.
Has anyone used this bench before?
Can it handle 3pl8?
Any ideas, guys?

i have that (just the bench). it's too low and wobbly and unstable as fuck. i wouldn't bench more than 1.5 plate on it

Seriously? Thanks man.
What makes it unstable for you? The feet, the height? What is the most you have benched on it?
Also do you have any clue where I could track down the weight rating? I thought it was a legal requirement to have a weight rating on any bench but I can't find one for this ANYWHERE.
Thanks again famalam.

Does it feel unstable as in the legs will just give out? Or unstable like it will wobble side to side and tip over?
What is the most weight you have benched on it?

it's flimsy as fuck. the tubing is only like 3/4" so i doubt it would hold a whole lot. also it's really fucking low. i've since replaced it with a proper bench but most i use to bench on it was 140 or so and i had to be careful not to sway side to side because you could easily tip over on the thing

Thanks for the information and advice, man.
I'll be benching in a power rack but I'll be sure not to overdo it until I can get my hands on a decent upgrade.
140lbs or kgs? I am benching 100kg atm so I want to know if I can at least bench that on it
has anyone else got any information whatsoever on this bench or its weight capacity?
can you buy this bench by itself anywhere or was it a lucky find? is it rated to 500lbs?
OP here, I don't know how to close a thread, but thats for all the advice people. If anyone else wants to comment, de-rail this thread into whatever until it 404s
