I bought mine from Walmart on a crazy dea and expected it to be super sloppy, inaccurate, and maybe have terrible finish. I think the listed company was “FitVids” I was pleasantly surprised to see that each plate was within about .5% accurate listed weight and fit just as good, if not better than, my vintage Ivankos on the bar. There is slight slop compared to milled Yorks and perhaps smooth and easy to grip alternatives, but I think some will appreciate that wiggle room when loading weights compared to a tighter tolerance.
The finish does occasionally shed some material on my ribbed sleeves, but honestly mine have held up quite well after my first 9 months of Starting Strength. Had there not been an opportunity to “upgrade” into some more interesting vintage weights, I’d be lovingly using these still. The price is right, especially if available for less than $1/lb.

Got these for .60lb over black friday 2025. Honestly these are one of my favorite plates as they are cheap and have the old school look and feel, similar to my milled yorks. Weight was dead on for the change plates and within 1-2oz for the 25s and 45s. Honestly couldn't ask for better plates for price.

We all know the deal here. Cheaper weights you can get off marketplace and use them for lifting. They get the job done. They are not the most accurate plates, but are usually close. You can do anything with them. They clean up really easy and you can make them custom to your liking as far as colors and painting them to match your gym.

Really easy to find used standard plates for cheap anywhere. Picked some up and did a little restoration and painting. Adds a touch of personality to the gym and weighs close enough for my uses.

I've collected an assortment of standard weight plates over the years, and these are no different than the rest. Generally speaking, if you are in the market for standard iron weight plates, shop around for the best price or purchase them second hand.

Cheap weight. I've had four of these for a couple decades and it didn't take long for them to start chipping where they contact the barbell.
