Pros

You that are bashing this product are *. Works fine. Zero problems. No obvious flaw.

These are available in large supermarkets (meijer/walmart/etc) for similar prices if you live near one. Overall, these are quality bars and i would recommend them with the following caveats:1. New ones also have a slightly shorter weight sleeve, but a...  Read More



Cons

Ordered the chrome type, but received one black one. The ends of these dumbbells are too big for 1 inch spring clips or 1 inch *. These are hollow and upon snapping i can see that the inside is completely rusted away.

Quality


Sturdy non threaded dumbbell handles, knurling is just right to feel comfortable and not like it is going to tear up my hands.


Excellent bars, smooth, good grip, no metal burrs, work well for lifting standard weight plates.


They are just painted black and the paint started chipping off where dumbbell plates touch it, after the first use.


The plastic clamps and springs don't work.

Price


These are exactly what i was looking for at a low price.


That being said, stil giving 5 stars becasue the bars are still very good for the price.


I paid $20 for this pair here on amazon the week of 8/14/20 so try not to succumb to corona fear and hang on if you can.


Guessing they got cheap copies and not real cap ones.

Shipping


They were delivered days earlier than expected, very much appreciated.


I want to order more but shipg time is too long


I put these to use as soon as they arrived.

Packaging/appearance


Came as described (smooth, not twist lock).


Packaging was sort of beat up in transit but the product was undamaged.


The picture is what they looked like out of the box, before even using them.

Competitiveness


They are worth the investment, as compared to the aluminum barbells.


Ultimately, i choose the cap smooth dumbbells because they were less expensive than the other nearly identical product.


These are available in large supermarkets (meijer/walmart/etc) for similar prices if you live near one.

    Ive used standard threaded spinlock dumbbell handles for years and have put up with numerous cuts and scrapes over the years


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I paired mine with marcy 134 spring clip collars with the rubber dipped handles


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Compared to my old spinlock dumbbells the spring clip collars go on and off faster and most importantly they stay put
