The soft, high-grade vinyl upholstery is easy to care for with a leather-like look & feel. At 30" wide, it provides more room than most adjustable benches and will serve as a duet bench in a pinch. At 32 lbs (shipping weight) this bench is more manageable than other heavy-duty benches that weight 46+ lbs. HM hydraulic benches have been chosen on stages worldwide and in many of the finest conservatories.
