Specs At A Glance

Weight Capacity350 kg
Assembled Dimensions116cm x 74cm x 119cm (L x W x H)
PaddingHigh Density
Warranty12 months parts replacement

If you lift at home and want one bench that moves through decline, flat and incline, the CORTEX BN-9 gives you 8 backrest levels and 4 seat levels on a 12-gauge steel frame rated to 350 kg. The wide rubber footing keeps it planted under heavy dumbbell presses.

It suits a lifter building a serious home setup who wants a single bench for pressing, rows and seated work, with transportation wheels and a 24 kg net weight that let one person roll it aside between sessions. Backed by a 12-month parts replacement warranty.

Is this adjustable bench right for you?

This adjustable bench is right for you if:

  • You press, incline and decline from one bench, with 8 backrest and 4 seat positions to dial in the angle
  • You load heavy and want headroom to spare, with a 350 kg weight capacity
  • You want to reposition the bench solo, thanks to transport wheels and a 24 kg frame
  • You're kitting out a serious home gym and want 12-gauge steel that handles daily use

Look at another option if:

  • You only ever train flat and never incline or decline, so a simpler fixed flat bench will do the job
  • You lift light and train occasionally, where a lighter-duty adjustable bench covers it
  • You're tight on floor space and don't need decline, where a more compact folding bench fits better
  • You want a wider seat and backrest for a bigger frame, so look for a bench with larger pad dimensions

Adela's Take

What stands out is the 8 backrest levels paired with 4 seat positions: that granularity lets you set a true low-incline for upper-chest work without your hips sliding, something coarser benches never nail.

At 116cm long and 24kg it isn't a grab-and-stash bench, so keep a permanent corner for it. The 350kg capacity is where it earns its keep for heavy pressers.

Decline, Flat and Incline FID Bench

The bench moves through decline, flat and incline positions, so one piece of kit covers flat presses, incline work and decline sets.

That means you can press, row, do shoulder work and support arm or core exercises without buying a separate bench for each angle.

  • Three use modes: decline, flat and incline
  • 8 backrest levels and 4 seat levels
  • Supports pressing, rowing, shoulder and core work

What this means for you: One adjustable bench handles most of a home dumbbell programme, which keeps your floor space clear.

CORTEX BN-9 FID Adjustable Exercise Bench Large Range of Workout Options feature

12-Gauge Commercial Steel, 350 kg Capacity

The frame is built from 12-gauge commercial grade steel and carries a 350 kg weight capacity, which covers your body weight plus heavy dumbbells with room to spare.

At 24 kg the bench has enough mass to sit solid under load rather than shifting as you press.

  • 12-gauge commercial grade steel frame
  • 350 kg weight capacity
  • Net weight: 24 kg
  • Wide rubber footing for a stable base

What this means for you: Heavier lifters and anyone loading big dumbbells get a bench that stays planted under real working loads.

8 Backrest and 4 Seat Adjustment Levels

The backrest adjusts across 8 levels and the seat across 4, so you can dial in the exact angle for each lift rather than settling for one fixed position.

Matching the seat to the backrest stops you sliding down the pad on steeper incline work.

  • 8 backrest levels
  • 4 seat levels
  • Back rest pad: 79cm long, 24-28cm wide
  • Seat pad: 30cm long, 24-28cm wide

What this means for you: You can fine-tune the angle for each exercise, which keeps your position steady and your reps consistent.

CORTEX BN-9 FID Adjustable Exercise Bench Multiple Angle Adjustability feature
CORTEX BN-9 FID Adjustable Exercise Bench High-Density Padding and Commercial Upholstery feature
High-Density Padding and Commercial Upholstery The pads use high-density foam under commercial grade upholstery, so they stay firm and supportive instead of compressing flat over months of pressing.
CORTEX BN-9 FID Adjustable Exercise Bench Transport Wheels for Easy Repositioning feature
Transport Wheels for Easy Repositioning Built-in transport wheels let you tilt and roll the 24 kg bench out of the way between sessions rather than lifting it.
CORTEX BN-9 FID Adjustable Exercise Bench Four-Step Assembly and 12-Month Warranty feature
Four-Step Assembly and 12-Month Warranty The manual takes you through four bolt-together steps: the frame, the adjustment plates, the backrest and seat linkages, then the pads. It's a manageable one-person job with a spanner or socket set.

What's in the Box & Setup

Effort: a one-person job, four bolt-together steps in the manual. Tools: a spanner or socket set for the M10 and M8 bolts (hardware included).

What arrives

  • CORTEX BN-9 FID bench frame sections
  • Hardware pack (bolts, washers, fasteners)
  • Assembly manual with setup instructions
  • Transportation wheels

Setup reality

  1. The frame comes in sections: you bolt the support, base, backrest and seat tubes together, fit the adjustment linkages, then attach the pads.
  2. One person can handle it with a spanner or socket set; the manual covers it in four steps.
  3. The bench weighs 24 kg assembled, so moving it into position is manageable once wheels are attached.
  4. The packaging is 118 cm long and will need a clear space to unbox safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the bench delivered and how should I prepare?

It ships flat-packed in a single box measuring 118cm x 47cm x 22cm, with a gross weight of 25.7kg. One person can move it indoors comfortably. Clear a small floor area for the build.

What happens if it arrives damaged or a part is missing?

Take photos before you start assembling and email them to support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We lodge the freight claim, send out any replacement parts, and stay across it until you're sorted. You never deal with the courier or manufacturer directly, that's our job to handle for you.

How long does it take to put together?

It's a one-person job in four bolt-together steps: frame, adjustment plates, backrest and seat linkages, then the pads. All the bolts, washers and nuts are included; you just need a spanner or socket set. Keep the hardware pack close and work on a soft surface so you don't scratch the upholstery while you flip it.

What's the warranty, and can I return it if it's not right?

The BN-9 comes with a 12 month parts replacement warranty, handled by us here in Australia. If it carries the 100 Day Money-Back Guarantee badge on its product page, you've got 100 days to change your mind, returned as-new in the original packaging with no restocking fee. Return shipping is yours to cover.

How much space does it take up at home?

Assembled, it measures 116cm long, 74cm wide and 119cm tall, so it sits well under a standard 2.4m ceiling and tucks into most spare rooms or garage gyms. The wide rubber footing needs a flat patch of floor. Transportation wheels let you tilt and roll it aside when you need the space back.

How heavy a lifter can this bench handle?

The weight capacity is 350kg, which covers your bodyweight plus serious loads on dumbbell and barbell work. The 12-gauge commercial grade steel frame is what earns that number, so it suits everyone from a first-time lifter to an experienced trainer pushing heavy incline presses without the frame flexing underneath you.

How many positions does the backrest adjust to?

You get 8 backrest levels and 4 seat levels, covering decline, flat and incline. That range means you can set a true flat press, dial in steep incline for shoulders, or drop to decline for lower chest. The seat adjustment matters too: it stops you sliding forward on steeper incline angles so your setup stays locked.

Does the padding hold up to regular heavy use?

The high density padding paired with commercial grade upholstery is firm rather than soft, which is what you want for pressing. A firm pad keeps your shoulder blades stable and stops you sinking mid-rep. I prefer this over a plush pad for anyone training seriously, since it holds its shape session after session.
