Pros & Cons
Cons
The odour is cause by off-gassing and can be carcinogenic. Very bad product.
Highlights
Quality
Great quality, a little oily but no smell
Exact construction as an older rubber coated weight i have.
The weights did initially have a strong "new tire" smell which is to be expected, but the worst of it dissipated pretty quickly... Read More
Plates smell like brand new plates…idk what else a newly manufactured rubber product is supposed to smell like.
Price
These are a great value for the money, perfect addition for my home gym.
Definitely recommend these if you want to save some money.
Got them for less than 1 dollar/lb.
I bought these for $35 each…absolutely blown away.
Shipping
And prime shipping was amazing; got them in 2 days.
Shipping is a bit slow but that is really the only negative i would put out there and even that is not that bad.
Packaging/appearance
Maybe needs a picture showing what is used for in the packaging for gifts.
A little smelly when first removed from the box but seem fine now
Competitiveness
They are very similar to your average big box gym bumper.
They are also bouncier than competition bumpers and a little bouncier than your average gym bumpers.

I dont see a sale or any coupons on the 45lbs plate
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Kinda feels inconsistent in that sense
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Its very bulky and has a larger thickness and diameter than most other 45 lb plates from other manufacturers
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Its also hard to hold onto the plates because of the small finger grip around the outer rim

This makes them a bit sketchy to load onto a bar
