These are cool, however they're a bougie, low use item in my opinion. I'd rather have a dumbbell or kettlebell in most cases and when you consider having to buy a pair of these to do some movements it gets pricey and eat up a lot of floor space.

This thing is ok if you want a dedicated bench station, however it's also very limiting in that regard. This one is nice as it has westside spacing where the monster version does not, but most people in a home gym scenario are better off with other options that are more versatile.

I put this in the middle of offerings I've used with Titan and MBPC. Nicer than Titan, but noticeably lower quality than MBPC.

These are dope, but I think most would be better off with the KG version. Don't see a reason to get LBs in this style of plate. Would prefer a more pronounced lip.

These are dope, but I think most would be better off with the KG version. Same issues with chrome though being slippery and fingerprint magnets.

Knocked for the fact they took something that was made in USA (olympic USA plates) and outsourced them despite the fact they wanted to make made in USA calibrated. The design here is fine, although I prefer a slightly more pronounced lip. Chrome looks cool, but hard to differentiate when viewing straight on. Also a fingerprint magnet.
