This one ($180 on amazon btw)? http://www.amazon.com/Marcy-Diamond-Mid-Size-Bench/dp/B0041GMVL0
That looks so-so. The design looks stable, but the catches are only rated to 300 lbs, so it will be of use for only so long.
The uprights are probably closer together than a usual olympic bench, so you'll have to be careful you don't leave too much weight on one side and have the bar tip while racking/unracking.
The highest catch spot may still be fairly low for squats as well.
The leg extension/curl stuff is of minimal usefulness (assuming you're squatting). I've got two benches with it and those parts sit in the corner. One has a pec fly attachment on it though and that gets used.
I got both of those benches off Craiglist under $100 each and the one with pec fly came with a 150+ pounds of 1" standard plates and bars.
