Structural Integrity
Customers generally praise the structural integrity of these CAP Barbell Rubber Olympic Bumper Plates, with many noting their sturdiness and durability despite being subjected to heavy weight and impact. However, a small minority warn against relying on them as a sole set for holding up a bar, as they may bend or break under the pressure.
Rubber Odor
Customers have mixed opinions regarding the rubber odor of the CAP Barbell Rubber Olympic Bumper Plates. While some customers do not find it to be an issue and appreciate the professional look, others have reported strong and persistent odors that linger even after cleaning efforts. Some customers have noted that their hands become oily and stinky when handling the plates, and the oil is difficult to remove. Others have experienced off-gassing and headaches upon unboxing.
Highlights
Quality
This product is smooth and holds great ease of handling.
Seems to be a good quality weight.
It shouldn't break down like a low quality product.
Rubber smell went away after a week.
Price
Great for price, perfect for home exercise
Great price and quality on these weight plates.
For the price, i would choose them again over and over again
They go on sale frequently, but even if they're not on sale the price is still worth it for what you're getting.
Shipping
Im not sure if one of the plates was damaged during delivery or not but im not bothered by it.
There is a bit of shipping grease on them and they do have a little bit of a plastic smell to them.
Packaging/appearance
These come well packed in sturdy boxes, and are wrapped in plastic.
Came greasy and stink like rubber if that matters to you.
Competitiveness
My initial impressions are i can't find any difference between these and the more expensive name brand bumper plates.
I've purchased 2 different brands of bumper plates and this brand actually seemed more durable than the other brand i purchased.
Coating feels comparable to titan brand weights.
