If it's just a bench you're after do you want incline/decline? If so, I can recommend the Bodycraft range - I use one in my power rack and it's very solid and well-padded:

If you are looking for an all-in-one I'd strongly recommend looking at a power rack:

It depends on the weight you are moving, most of the above would see me flat on the floor...
