Our Take
The Marcy SB-670 is a flat utility weight bench designed for straightforward dumbbell and barbell work in a home gym setting. It sits at the budget-to-mid-range end of the market, offering a no-frills, fixed-flat design. It suits beginners and casual lifters who need a solid surface for pressing, rowing, and step-up exercises without complex adjustability.
Key Features
Fixed flat position only — no incline or decline adjustment
Steel frame construction with a powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance
Upholstered vinyl pad across the full bench length for basic comfort
Compact footprint suited to smaller home gym spaces
Weight capacity rated at approximately 300 lb (around 136 kg) for user plus load
Rubber end caps on feet to protect flooring and reduce slippage
Our Verdict
The SB-670 makes sense for true beginners wanting a dedicated flat surface for light-to-moderate dumbbell work on a tight budget. Anyone already lifting heavier weights, or likely to progress quickly, will outgrow it fast and should invest a little more in a quality adjustable bench from the outset.
