It worked as a Covid stop gap trap bar. Small, easy to load, picks up weight plates. If max capacity isn’t a concern and you don’t want the hassle of loading a traditional hex trap bar, this is fine. Not worth over $100.

These are decent dumbbells that were fine when I had them. Only issue I had was the red ink degraded and became tacky. Sold them to replace the mixed incomplete sets that these were part of.

My original Covid bar that came bundled with the plates. Very meh coating that even in a basement gym requires regular maintenance. I actually had 2 at one point and one of the bars had a sleeve that dragged no matter what. These have press in bearings so it isn’t like you can do much to fix spin issues. Sold them both off and definitely recommend better bars. Rogue Boneyard would be better than this bar. The knurling is next to nothing as well.

These were my original Covid gym plates. They came as a package with the bar and they did fine while I had them. I would not pay Dick’s prices now for these as you can get much better plates for cheaper. Second hand market for a killer price… they’ll be fine.

I had this bar for a bit but sold it due to the angles of the bar. The knurling is quite nice as it’s a little more aggressive but the bends I found to be too angled and oddly tight spacing. I think if you have extremely narrow shoulders it might work but for a normal adult the bends are subpar unless you want a really close grip curl. Fit and finish is typical BOS, as in bargain quality but I never had issues with it.

It does okay and would get a better score if the platform were higher. It’s a little low and even with a size 9.5 shoe I find myself leaning forward to try and get a more full stretch. If I didn’t have to load my calf workout with my cable machine I just use my basement stairs as I at least get a full deep stretch on them. Build wise it actually isn’t bad considering the cost.

I have these sprinkled around my gym and they work as intended. I would rather have them a little thinner though as I find they push the bars up enough that they have a bit more wobble in their respective holders. Very minor nit pick.

Great way to clean up your bar. Simple, easy, and cost effective. Just gotta be careful of that clam shell design pinching you.
