These are awesome collars. They come in a few colors, and work really well. They fit most bars and look sharp. They are a clone of the Elinko Open collars, but of course the price is much more economical. I do like them and use them regularly.

This is a nice piece of equipment. I am not sure it is any better than a standard Dumbbell, but it is unique. I do enjoy using them and the configuration makes it so you can have different hand positions and different points on leverage. They do seem to wear well. Overall they are solid, but more of an extravagance than a necessity.

Very high-quality attachment. Excellent for rows and pulls. This is very well built and looks great. It is light and easy to use.

Decent bar for more singular purposes. I do not use it often, but it serves it's purpose when I do. It makes life easier on my wrist and shoulders. I think if you are going to use it occasionally this is a good bar, but if it is going to be a staple go for a higher tier bar,

Very good plates. They are a nice thickness and come in different color patterns. The price seems high but is comparable to others of this type. They do sometimes run sales.

The Eclipse Grip may be the best attachment I have. Like most things from Porter, this borders on being art. It can be used for lots of exercises. Tri-extensions, hammer Curls, and all sorts of delt work. It fits the hand really well and comes in various colors to match your gyms motif. It is more expensive than many others like it, but it is worth it...you get what you pay for. I give this my highest recommendation,

I have had a set of these for several years and I have never had a problem with them. They are balanced and feel good in my hands when using them. the handle is a bit thicker than some of the others, but my hands are bigger so they work for me. I feel like they are a good value when compared to others.

These are a nice budget option, but if you can afford one of the upper tier brands you should go for it. If you are lifting heavy weights, I would suggest others. Overall they are built and look nice. Weights can be changed relatively quickly, but sometimes you have to take a minute to figure out the weight....some numbers on each plate would help. Once you screw the bolt in the weights stay in place. The knurling on the handles is reasonable for lighter weights but might be lacking for the heavy lifter. i have the lighter set, but I believe they are easily expandable.
