If you intend to set up a home gym, you should look for a power rack, an adjustable bench, a barbell and various weight plates (I'd say 250-300lbs to start with). This will be more than sufficient to train all muscle groups.

Can't agree more with Dan. I have a multi-gym at home, costed me around 5-6k. Should have spent that money on a bench/power rack instead.

Thing I'm worried about buying cheaper benches is that it won't support the weight (my body weight + the bar's weight). :\

When you say lift more than 150kg, you mean the bar only, of inclusive of my bodyweight? If it's the latter, then I can only benchpress 80-90kg (not there yet, but I will be one day) on it. Need to think a few times then.
