I have this bench. It's fine. But the price doesn't seem great. Normal price was like $85 about a year ago, and I got $20 off the combo of this bench and the progear rack. For $65 or so, this is a good deal.
Because, as an adjustable incline bench, if it went to 90 then it would have no forward support and would be subject to flopping over in the wrong direction and possibly being damaged.
By staying slightly under 90, it can ensure that it never reaches that tipping point, and that the user's bodyweight will keep it pressed against it's only direction of support.
90 degree benches, including those that are adjustable, require bi-directional support and/or locking mechanisms. This style of bench uses gravity to stay secure. It does not have a locking pin.
Guess it'll get the job done. Probably so light it doesn't need wheels and can be picked up with one hand, lol not sure if that's considered a positive.
Does anyone know why alot of benches don't ever go to 90 degrees?
I've got a bench that stops a bit short of 90 too, and it's always bugged me. I usually get a block of wood and stick it on the upper bracket to get it closer to 90, but of course that is janky.
I bought this on Sunday based on the previous post and it was delivered via FEDEX Ground on Thursday. It is a great bench. Very stable and versatile. It is a great value.

Wheels are useless. I just pick it up to move it.
