Cast Iron Plate Weight Plate for Strength Training and Weightlifting, Olympic or Standard, Multiple Sizes

Nice and heavy; barbell bench press.

I needed a couple 2 1/2 pound plates to do some rehab work. I don't expect to have to use them for long, and I already have a good selection of 10, 25 and 45 pound plates, so I wanted to get the least expensive I could find. I have a BalanceFrom / Signature Fitness open trap bar (it says Signature FItness on the bar, but it was listed as BalanceFrom; I expect they're the same company), and at only $9.99, I was happy to try out these plates.Well, I'm satisfied with the 2 1/2 pound plates. They're budget plates, so I had very realistic expectations, which helps. They each weigh just over 2 pounds 8 ounces, which is close enough for me, and they're very close in weight to one another, helpful for balance. There's a sharp spot in the finish of one of them, but this is very common with inexpensive bars and plates, and if it worried you, you can file it off or put tape over it. They had no smells.Here's the thing. I have a couple of supposed 2.5 pound plates from another budget company (no, it's not Cap - we love their Beast Bar), and they're almost half a pound apart in weight, which means one side of a dumbbell is heavier than another, not good if you're doing rehab like I am. So I'm very happy that the Signature Fitness plates are so close to the same weight as one another.So I'm happy I ordered these, They're helping with my recovering injury, and when it comes time to get some 5 pound plates, I'll be ordering from BalanceFrom / Signature Fitness again - they're a very good price and very decent budget plates. I'd say they're 4 star plates but I'm adding an additional star for value.

Sturdy real deal plates you’d use at any regular gym. Price is reasonable for the quality. Will order more

Nice look. PAINTED PERFECT.. 👌

They do the job. The only improvement I think is needed is the edge should be wider to allow for easier grasping and holding of the weight. I always feel like I can't grip it well and might drop it when I'm moving it or loading the bar. Otherwise, I'm happy with them.Beware of the packaging though... they come wrapped in plastic stacked one on top of the other in a flimsy cardboard box with those plastic straps around one side of the box. I ordered 3 different weights and by the time they arrived they were all barely in the box. They slip and slide on each other and destroy the box. One shipment arrived with the side of the box open so they weights were not contained at all. They'd be better if they were packed in a box fitted with Styrofoam to protect them. After one shipping damage mishap that was returned to sender by the carrier and refunded, I receive all three sizes intact despite the poor condition of the packaging. Give credit to the carriers for "keeping it all together"!

I bought four 5 lb plates for my spin lock dumbbells. These have 1 inch holes, so they are not intended for Olympic bars. These plates are fairly thin compared to my other plated, about 1/2 inch thick. This is a good feature because you can load more on the dumbbell handle. The diameter is about the size of my vintage Weider 10lb plate, about 8 inches. You cannot beat the price at $1 per lb.

I'm happy with the product. Nice looking. Arrived promptly. I have no regrets about buying, especially at $1/lb. There are some places on the plates where the enamel is chipped, though. Is there a way to touch that up? Maybe use black nail polish or something? Or is there a patch kit I could buy. I don't want to return them, I think that would be unreasonable. I just want to patch the places where the enamel is chipped. Any ideas?

Awesome plates, Be sure to read the fine print. 120.00 for 2 45lb was way to good to be true! Awesome plates non the less.
