I hemmed and hawed a bit due to the price, but this bar has turned out to be awesome. Love the feel of the stainless steel and love the knurling, plus it has been a cinch to keep clean. I'm primarily using this for bench, squat, deadlifts, overhead pressing, and barbell curls. The knurling is a little sharp for front squats, but it is manageable.

Phenomenal bar, specifically for deadlifts and squats. The knurling has the perfect amount of bite and I really like the diameter of the bar. This was a FMP buy for me, so the value is even better. The Stainless / Stainless has held up flawlessly.

Best bar for many people. 10/10 would recommend. It's a matter of taste at this price, purpose, and quality. Rogue in my experience has the tightest tolerance between them, Texas, and American Barbell. The detail on the AB bars is a step above the rest. Texas is more aggressive.

The go-to bar. The knurling is exceptional and the overall quality is hard to argue with. One minor note: the ribbed sleeves have always been the weakest point of an otherwise great bar, so the move to smooth sleeves should make a good product even better.

This is a great power bar that offers the usual quality that Rogue is known for at a reasonable price. I was lucky enough to have regular access to Ohio Power bars at my last gym, and they all held up really well to the day-to-day abuse from weekend warriors and world record holders alike. You won't be disappointed if you buy this bar and it will likely last you a lifetime, even with minimal maintenance.

I am obsessed with rogues stainless steel bars, only bars I'm buying new from rogue moving forward, the combo of the stainless still keeping the bar from getting a patina and also allows a sharper feel kurling without a coating to fill in the kurling

I have the fully stainless version and it’s the best power bar I’ve ever used. The sleeves are super tight tolerance and low profile/quiet, which I really like because I train very early in the morning and want to avoid waking my family. The price for this is actually very reasonable for a fully stainless made in USA bar as well.
