Yes. Flat benches provide a more stable, consistent surface for barbell and dumbbell pressing under heavy loads. Adjustable benches add variety but can introduce minor movement or pad gaps that interfere with optimal setup for maximal pressing. How important is bench height for proper form and leg drive? Very. A true competition-standard height (~1717.5") lets most lifters plant their feet and engage leg drive efficiently. Taller benches can reduce lower-body engagement; shorter benches can make it harder to stay tight and balanced. Can the bench be used safely inside a power rack? Yes. The Vulcan 3x3 Flat Bench fits comfortably in most standard 3x3 and 2x3 racks. The bench height and frame width align well with spotter arms, allowing safe setup and effective pressing positions. Does a thicker pad make pressing more comfortable or stable? A firm, 3" pad is optimal for stability and spinal alignment. Overly soft or excessively thick pads can absorb force unevenly, alter bar path, and reduce power transfer. Our medium-firm pad with grippy texture prevents sliding without restricting shoulder movement. Is a flat bench like this enough for a complete home gym setup? For most lifters, yes. A solid flat bench supports barbell and dumbbell presses, step-ups, core work, and accessories. Paired with a rack and weights, it forms a strong foundation without unnecessary complexity or moving parts.

Ribbon on the side came in a little damaged but customer service is working with me. Just waiting for details to be finalized. Customer service was fast to reach back out to me so seems like a quality company.

The bench is very sturdy. The only issue is that it wobbles a bit so a shim was necessary to keep it level.

I purchased the bench and received it with within 2 days of ordering. I was pretty impressed with how fast delivery was but once I opened the package I noticed the actual frame itself was bent. I contact Vulcan and they didn’t hesitate to send me another frame out free of charge. I received the new frame within 2 days also. I am very pleased with the customer service and the bench itself is great! The pad feels super durable and grippy and the legs make it very sturdy. I’ve heard a lot of people say the legs get in their way but I’ve never had that issue. Overall, I’d recommend Vulcan I have no doubts that this bench will last for many years.
