My father-in-law loves these and he's more or less the only one who uses them on the functional trainer. I got these with my Paramount PFT-200 FT, so I guess "free" or "included" would be the designation I'd choose when referring to how I ended up witht them. I certainly wouldn't pay for them. Nothing wrong with them actually - they're solid, the rubber grips are the right width, the fabric holds up well on the d portion. It's just, well, blah. I much prefer nicer handles.

I've got two of these, as mentioned prior. One I bought from Amazon and I'm pretty sure the other is Cap, or at least that's what I recall. Why I have two of these is puzzling, especially since I don't much care for the angle, or the rubber, or how big and unruly these are to store and actually use. They pretty much have landed in my storage pile and I'm likely never to actually use either again.

Hot garbage. Cheap, so if that’s all you can afford… but man, do yourself a favor. These are total crap. They don’t even have a rubber deal to make it easier on your hands. Get proper collars for your barbells. I mean, they’re $10 and some cheap actual real collars are $13.

I picked these up at HGC 2026 from the booth. They had me pay $100, so $40 off the retail price, but I believe KASSN1 will save you 15%, if you buy this new. I really like this version, for several reasons. First, the other Kaz handles (up till now) were too big for regular sized man hands, but they've released a smaller version, which I also tried, but they wouldn't sell me. The second thing is the straight handle feels more natural to me. I've only used these a handful of times so far, but definitely the same quality you'd expect from Prime as well as just fun to use.

This is pretty pricey for what is basically two plastic sleeves - but the value is that it can double as a solution for both bands and chains. I've used these for quite a few years and I've had no issues with this whatsoever. I like the products Aperture sells, and I'll happily purchase more items when needed.

I think I paid $7 for this. I don't much use it, but it's more down to me being a slob that can't motivate myself to do any actual cardio exercise (and the fact that it is about 200 degrees outside where I live half the year). I'd buy this again and, though I have no experience with the Rogue versions, I wouldn't think paying upwards of $60 more for better handles.

Fringe hits another home run with this one. I picked it up during the recent clearance and paid something stupid like $63. The welds are clean, the powder coat is evenly applied, the end caps are smoking hot. End caps? On a budget curled axle bar? WTF? Yeah buddy!

I bought this at Costco in 2021 as a Christmas gift for my wife and we use it almost daily for knits and strains. The battery life on this is insane and has held up for almost five years on maybe ten total charges. It really lasts forever and gets the job done and I want to say it cost about $75 at the time. Can’t see ever actually needing to replace this.
