Great until it's NOT

I bought this bench a hair over a year ago. Unfortunately it sat in the garage just being a chair from October until July when I started using it. I primarily wanted a bench I could do flat, incline, and declines on. I'm only using dumbells that are at the most are 50lbs each 3 days a week until the first week of December that it all came to an abrupt end.The assembly was easy. Overall was happy with the purchase. Over time the pull for the bench started getting stuck out and I'd have to wiggle it to get it to click back in so it would go to the setting I wanted the bench at. That really wasn't a big deal though. I put some grease on it and it worked a little better. When using the decline it took a little getting used to putting my legs super close together because bench isn't super wide so the position I was used to at the gym didn't work. Once again not a big deal.However, today I was getting ready to do my last set of declines and when I sat on the bench it collapsed to the floor. The pin that holds it together seems to have busted through the tube it slides through. I'm not doing exercises that I'm jumping on the bench or anything like that. As I mentioned earlier at most I'm using 100 lbs of weight and I weigh 250. So I'm still under the stated weight capacity of the bench.At this point it's a little disappointing because I have only used the bench for a few months and it failed, however, I'm definitely over the year that I'm assuming the warranty is good for. Now I need to scramble to find something else so I can keep working out. Maybe you won't have the same luck as me, I figured I'd just pass it on so others knew my experience. Fortunately I wasn't hurt when this happen or this could have been much worse.
