Keppi Bench6000 X adjustable weight bench with a Type 304 stainless steel frame and black self-skinning foam pads
Keppi

Bench6000 X

A bench is the least interesting piece in a home gym and the one that decides how much the rest of it can do. Keppi's Bench6000 X is its flagship at $679.99, and what you are paying for is the frame: Type 304 stainless steel instead of the painted carbon steel almost every bench in this price band uses.
