What is the opinion of Reddit about the
Marcy MWB-848 Mid Size Bench?

Your old setup looks very similar to the Marcy MWB-848 I found a couple of years ago on Craigslist. I’ve put 270 pounds on the stand without any problems. What are your lifts like?

It’s worse than that. On page 3 of the PDF: “Do not place more than 210 pounds, including a barbell, on the weight rests.”

Two weeks ago I found a Marcy MWB-848 on Craigslist with a six-foot standard barbell and six 25-pound plates for $100. The bench data plate says its good to 600 pounds. I’d have to bench 420 to hit that limit, so I’ve got some time.

I’d hold out for better.
