    Bit above your price range but they may do you a deal if you rang. Have heard excellent reports of Watson stuff.

    Fine bench, however the mens health range in Argos are great value, got my bench for 80 blips. Not quite commercial quality but not far off either. Strong

    Mirafit. UK company but I've been very happy with the stuff I've gotten from them. Very quick delivery too.

    +1 for mirafit. Got one a few weeks ago, good solid bench for a great price. Got it delivered through parcel motel.

    Cheers for the replies, the mirafit looks good but I would be worried about how it holds up in ten years, I prefer to buy very good quality things that last a lifetime. It's also very long at 173cm , the superbench is 120cm and that watson one is 130cm. I only have a small garage. Might wait until black friday to see if the superbench or watson one lower in price, edging towards the watson as it looks very good quality.
    If anyone else has any recommendations would be great!

    I have the original superbench for the last 8 years or so and it’s still perfect. Very solid and great value.

    Nice, the pro is compact, has wheels and can stand vertically too which s a plus. If they had it in stock I would just go for that.

    How did the parcel motel delivery work ? Did they ship it on to your house? Or did it ho to an oversize pickup depot?

    It was oversize so picked it up at the depot. Collection cost was reasonable though, total €7. There was a slight nick on the cushion so mirafit gave a £10 refund too.

    It is quite long alright, but I am 6'6" so the length was a key plus for me!

    For reference for anyone searching, I pulled the trigger on this after advise on another forum.

    https://againfaster.eu/en_gb/in-stock-products/competition-elite-adjustable-weight-bench.html

    £70 delivery to Ireland, its usually £35 to the uk so not the worst considering its over 50kg. Its basically the same as the rep ab5000 mentioned in the op, must use the same manufacturer.


    Primal Strength and Kustom Kit also have good quality options with reasonable delivery to Ireland.
