I've had problems with decline benches because of angle the bench locks your legs in weird positions. is this at all adjustable? I fear for my knees!

You cannot adjust the position of the leg pads, just the angle of the declune

yes this bench can be put in a 90 degree angle though it is a little awkward to put it up to 90 degrees due to the bench cushions hitting each other. My main complaint about the bench is i wish there was an option to have a little bit less on the incline as well

Yes, the stand is adjustable. The bench is not, It isn't necessary, since you adjust the stand to suit the bench. The seat is very thickly padded, sturdy and comfortable. Was pleasantly satisfied with them both, especially given the inexpensive price. Would highly recommend it.

No, it is not adjustable. You can sit on it or turn it over to kneel on it. It is a real help if you have a back or leg problem, both of which I have. It is very stable, but not adjustable.

The bench adjusts by turning 2 large knobs on either side. It is a fine adjustment and you can even do it while seated.

Yes the bench declines. You could remove the leg part and still use the preacher curl.

It does incline. Both stands collapse, which makes for great storage. In order to turn it to an incline bench, simply collapse one stand. However, a standard incline bench at the gym is 60 degrees. The incline on this bench is 35 degrees (although you can do some jacking up of your own - not factory recommended though). It is not a proper decline bench since there are no feet hooks. In short, this is a great bench for storage. If you need other utilities such as a seat during incline, then look elsewhere.

The bench has wooden legs, no feet to adjust one way or the other. Doubt it would work out for what you need.

No. It is technically perpendicular to the seat, which is always at an angle up. This makes it nearly impossible to get any kind of leverage while benching or using the bench at the parallel position. Very impractical overall.

No, the seat cannot be adjusted. That's the only downside to an otherwise great bench.

The bench declines. I've had it in that position. However, there is only one decline position. It is not possible to remove the leg part and keep the preacher curl. That is a one piece assembly.

It only has one decline position I believe "two positions" meant out and folded up. The only thing adjustable is the padded bar you hook your feet under. Still a great buy for beginners.

Think of this item as a see-saw - you may either point it downward like " \ " towards legs or upwards " / " or parallel to floor based of how and where you position your legs on this. Although there is a height adjustment. I find it useful for me as I am 5.1" and gives me the extra support or height adjustment for my legs when I sit at my desk. Occasionally because of see-saw movement I can do leg exercises. Hope that helps

The ad states "Adjustable from 0Degree - 30Degree angles for maximum relaxation" but I did not find this to be true. I tried to get it to swivel a bit but was afraid I would break it if I used any more force, so I am reasonably sure it is not positional!

It is a fixed angle, no adjustments, which really bums me out because my old one (a Fitness Gear, which I will replace this one with) had three inclines including flat so that it could be used as a chair when not working out (my only furniture is my camping cot and my situp bench).I got hold of a milk crate and put the front legs of the bench on the flipped over milk crate thus increasing the incline for a better workout and will do that in the future with other, better situp benches (I like my milk crate better than this particular situp bench, milk crates rule.)Kel

James, this machine only works in the seated position. This is why I bought it. Lying leg curls hurt my knees so seated, I get the same exercise for the most part without the pain... if you want to do the lying leg curls, you can get a bench that has many attachment options, leg curl attachment being one. I hope this is helpful... keep at it.... :)

No, the seat is huge, and your body will naturally fit into the angle created by the incline. There are multiple incline settings. It doesn't go straight up, but close. Only one decline, and obviously only one flat. This bench is huge, and is best for a tall person, but I still love it at only 5' 10". It stands up nicely with wheels on the end to move it around easily. I never worry about this bench breaking, regardless of how much weight I put on it
