Work your chest, shoulders, biceps, legs, and more without trudging to the gym day after day with the Marcy MD 857 Olympic surge bench. The MD 857 is built tough, with a durable steel frame, upholstery-boxed padding with high-density foam for comfort, and a long-lasting powder-coat finish. More significantly, the bench makes it easy to perform a wide variety of exercises. The bench's adjustable seat and back pad, for instance, operate on a slide track that places the exerciser in the correct posture for military and chest press exercises. At the same time, the bench includes an adjustable preacher curl pad and a detachable bicep bar, so you can isolate your biceps for better bulk. To accommodate your legs, the MD 857 includes a dual-function leg developer with a pivot point and locking mechanism. The pivot point aligns the developer with your knee joints for improved efficiency and safety, while the locking mechanism lets you perform abdominal exercises while seated on the bench. The bench even offers a reverse walk-in squat feature for working your quads in an upright position.

Other features include contoured foam roller pads, adjustable bar catches, akimbo-style crutches with diamond striker plates, and two Olympic weight storage posts. Designed to fit Olympic-size barbell and weight plates, the bench measures 80 by 60 by 47.5 inches (W x H x D) and carries a two-year limited warranty on parts.
Product DescriptionThe MD857 by Impex Fitness is a complete workout system. This Olympic weight bench offers four back pad positions so you can isolate and develop all areas of your pectorals. The angled uprights, which is what's seen on the weight benches at your local gym, allow for easy return of the weight bar to the bar catches on that final push. The adjustable height bar catches and safety catches put your body in the perfect position throughout your bench press workout. This offers safety to the user and maximizes the benefit of the exercise. An included leg developer, with contoured foam roller pads, allows you to develop all major leg muscle groups. The arm curl support pad and arm curl bar will give your biceps the burn you are looking for. Unique to this bench are the bar catches on the back of the uprights. These bar catches allow you to perform squats off the back of the machine. Also on the back of the bench are two well positioned weight plate storage posts that allow you to keep your workout space neat and tidy. Detailed instructions allow for quick and easy assembly so you're working out right away. This bench offers a weight capacity of 600lbs. (body weight + weight plates + weight bar) with assembled dimensions of 80" L x 47.5" W x 60" H. A 2 year manufacturer's limited warranty is included.

A little history: I have worked out before, used higher end benches and all that. I just moved and setup a home-gym in my garage. So this thing arrives and it took me about 2 and a half hours to put it together by myself. The instructions were very straight forward and I did not need much more than a wrench and an allen key. Though I am sure if i had my old allen key bit for my drill I could have done it in less than 2 hours maybe 1.5.
- There is a little sticker that says 'marcy' on it that was not on properly so I reversed the bar so it's not visible but kind of made me shake my head when I put it on.
- The two metalic/aluminum plates (stylistic) on the arms of the bench were bent slightly (ie they were secured very lazily from the factory) though not to the point where they were coming off or interfered with anything.
- The weight racks on the back were easy enough to put on save one of the screws for them would not thread properly (i replaced it with one of my own and all was well).Livestrong LS13.0E, Phoenix 98900 , Stamina Elite Total Body, Stamina CPS 9190 , Diamondback Fitness 510Sr, Sole Fitness F85-2013, WaterRower Club Rowing, Captiva - Elliptical , Precor AMT100i, Horizon Fitness M4, First Degree Fitness E-216, Octane Fitness Q35c , Best Fitness E1, Exerpeutic 2000, Diamondback Fitness 910Ub, Reebok Stride Select RL, Horizon Fitness T202, Life Fitness 95Ti , Bowflex TC5000, Stamina CPSIndoor , Sunny Crazy Fit , Spinner Fit Home , Sole F85, BodyCraft VR100, LifeCore VST-V8, Proform ZT3 , Schwinn 430, Best Fitness Upright Bike, Precor 9.35 , NordicTrack Pro, Gold s Gym Crosswalk, Nautilus T516, Schwinn 460 , Schwinn 220 , First Degree Fitness, Sole F83 , Precor EFX 546i, ProForm 385, Gazelle Freestyle, SportsArt Fitness E83 , Computer Keiser M3 , Velocity Fitness Spin Bike , Velocity Exercise Recumbent, Fitnex X5 Kids, Smooth Fitness 5.65, LifeSpan Fitness S2 , Livestrong LS5.0R , Best Fitness BFT1 , Precor RBK 815 , Smooth 9.65LC , Proform 18.0 RE , AFG 4.0 AR , Schwinn IC Pro Indoor , FreeMotion 770, CycleOps 300 Pro , WaterRower Natural Rowing, ProForm 510 E , WaterRower Oxbridge
- The removable case to change from standard to olympic on the rack itself kind of moves but I see a hole on the side that I assume is for a normal screw which will solve the issue--though these screws were not supplied if so.
- The removable safety and bar catches are easy enough to use but after ONE use with a brand new 7' olympic bar I notice the paint is coming off them. It could have used just a touch of padding. I thought this was just stuff coming off the bar but I noticed the same thing happen later with an older curl bar.
- The adjustable flat bench is not well thought out and the bottom part kind of wobbles when you sit on it (there is just a pin that you use to adjust the height. Not that I'm going to fall or anything.
- The top part of the bench is useful with the removable bar to switch between flat, incline, and decline positions so kudos there. This is the ONLY reason I am 'satisfied' with the bench itself.
- I like the fact that it has squat rests.
- The leg extension, preacher bench, and bicycle curl bar are all relatively nice additions though if space is your concern with this unit you will have a tedious process removing the extension on the fly (though that means the unit can probably handle a lot of weight on the leg and curls.

Ultimately I would say this is a piece of crap, and yet for 250 dollars for a bench that has all these features despite the flaws mentioned above I would say it's a "great" product for budget gyms. I cannot say if it will last more than 5 years intact, I fear I will break a few things on it eventually but who knows, it may last for 10, and by then who cares? If you've used the bench religiously/diligently and have experienced growth accordingly you'll probably be benching more than 400 and weight about 200+ so the weight "limit" will probably force you to buy a better bench or something then. Also from what I heard from other reviews, Marcy will replace things during the warranty period (I hope so at least) though I haven't had to yet.
I usually don't write reviews but I felt I HAD to for this great starter bench at such an affordable price.

I give this bench four stars for a few reasons. I really like the bench and I think it is worth the money. My only complaints are that some of the pieces were already banged up due to poor packaging and the seat is not very sturdy. It is quite loose feeling but it's not terrible.

Overall this is a solid bench and I like the adjustable racks and safety catches. I would recommend this for the price. It's also rather light and I can slide it around my garage whenever I need to move it. Assembly was a breeze and I did it by myself in about 45 minutes. The only tool required is a 5/8" socket or wrench. The rest of the tools needed come in the package and every nut, bolt, and washer is clearly marked. Well worth the money!

So I've answered a few questions here and there on other people's review, so I figured I would start my own.
I bought this weight bench mainly because I wanted to workout in peace and avoid any gym environment.
Assembly took me about three hours, but that's because I did it on my own. That being said, I would recommend two people carrying it out for safety purposes.
