Apollo Rubber Bumper Plates

The only reason why I got bumpers was because I got them before I installed my Horse Stall Mats. Thinking that my garbage deadlift would damage my foundation, I figured I'd grab a set of bumpers from a local shop. That local shop stocked a gazillion of these so I picked up a set and went to work. They work as intended but after lifting at a buddy's gym that had Rogue bumpers, I started to understand that there are levels to the bumper game and these Apollos were way inferior. I was a novice to the bumper game, and still am, as I've been a loyal iron boy since I first started lifting. They do retail pretty cheap so they're a good starter set but if I knew what I know now, I wouldn't even bother with these bumpers and if I really wanted a set, I would've gone with a more reputable company. The build quality is okay but the lack of branding on them make them great in my opinion. I guess weight is weight and I am reaching to find something negative to say about these but I for the life of me, I can't really complain too much since the stated weight is insanely close to the actual weight.
