Grant did an awesome job with these plates. I have some 45s and a loadable dumbbell cart loaded with change plates and they all look fantastic. There's something to be said for classic looking black iron plates that are as accurate as these are. I've used them for regular barbell work in addition to loading them on to strongman implements and the ecoat has held up great. Just don't deadlift with them on the concrete in front of the Jefferson Memorial and yours will look great too.

I'm horrible at oly lifts, but I would still use these even if I wasn't. I've had most of my set for over six years now, and the only thing different now is some cosmetic scratches. They're very dense, so don't expect a huge bounce. I would definitely buy these again, even if they are a bit pricier than other options.

This was one of the first things I bought for my gym in 2019 and it has held up extremely well. I have well over 1000 lbs of weight stored on it, so don't be scared by the 2x3. I wish Rogue made more 2x3 attachments but there are plenty of other manufacturers out there who do.

Exquisitely made bar from Rogue. Fits in my R-3 with room to spare and it works a lot better than my miniscule biceps would suggest. I use it fairly frequently, and the finish has held up very well over the past few years.

I got this to Frankenstein my Rogue R-3 into a six post rack. If you are going to do something similar, just note that the widths are slightly different and the hole pattern is off (vertically) by an inch. Pretty solid overall, and the j cups that came with it are surprisingly nice.

This thing is bomb proof. The steel is 3/8" and it doesn't shake at all, even in different positions. It sure is heavy, but you can wheel it around easy enough. I'm not getting rid of mine, and I would highly recommend getting one used (provided you can transport it)

Was the shipping packaging damaged? Yup. Are there gaps in the already non-uniform welds? Yup. Does it hold weight and function as a circus dumbbell would? Also yup. Did I get it super cheap during one of Titan's many sales? I sure did. She's not the prettiest girl at the dance, but she'll do.

I bought this to replicate a car deadlift and it's been sitting around since then. It's not a terrible piece of equipment, but it's very specific and I would use other equipment for its other advertised uses. If I had to redesign it I would remove the rotating handles and bring the static handles in, because they are extremely far out. Ideally I would move the static handles in to where the rotating handles are. I also had to "manually persuade" one of the rotating handles into alignment with a metallic object of greater mass, but everything else was fine in terms of assembly and use.
