CAP BarbellRubber Olympic Bumper Plate | Multiple Options/Colors

The CAP bumper plates may have a strong smell at first, but after owning them for over a year, I can confidently say they are worth it. The odor dissipated within about a month, and now there's no trace nor residual oil. I currently use 15, 25, 35, and 45-pound plates almost daily, and despite dropping them after deadlift sets and while changing weights, they haven’t broken or suffered severe damage.The quality is impressive; I always feel and inspect them when I handle them. Given their durability and price, they really are superb. There's no need to buy those ultra-expensive plates just to say you have them or because you've seen them in places like GGR or Gluck's Gym.I've considered other brands like Rogue and Rep Fitness, but I'm not convinced it's worth the excessive prices they charge for something I can get for much less while still enjoying excellent quality. I’m thinking about purchasing an additional set of 230 pounds, and I’m leaning toward the CAP competition color plates.My honest opinion from a mid-40s mid-dad with a salary job is that they are worth it. You don't have to break the bank.

At the end of the day, I’m getting reps in bc of these affordable barbell plates. YES it reeks of cigarette smoke when it arrives. The packaging tape is yellow likely from all the smokers in the shop. Annoying - yes. Would I return it over this - no. I ordered three separate orders or weights, and every time is was stinky and oily. Does it hinder my workout? Noooo. Again, it’s annoying, but they look good and I’m so glad I didn’t purchase used plates on those secondhand apps for the double the cost.I’ve had them 1-2 months and the smell lingers. I haven’t put a ton of effort into cleaning them as they stay in the garage and the odor is not strong enough to damage or stain anything else. Best bang for your buck.

For the money these are probably the best quality weight plates you can get that are a fraction of the price of traditional/metal weight plates. I got 2 45 lb. plates for less than what I would pay for 1 plate of the traditional style at the local sporting goods/fitness store.These come well packed in sturdy boxes, and are wrapped in plastic. There is a bit of shipping grease on them and they do have a little bit of a plastic smell to them. The smell will go away in a few months and just have some wipes on hand when they arrive so you can wipe/clean them off. They look great, have a good feel to them, and work with the 2.5 inch barbells. These were a huge addition to my home gym since I was moving up to heavier weights on squats and deadlifts and needed to buy more plates behind my first 300 lb. Olympic Set. Other plates were cost prohibitive and I was initially skeptical about these given how "cheap" they were/are, but they are high quality and good plates. These have also been great for deadlifts since they are a bit easier on my floor padding than the metal weights.The only drawback is that there isn't a good handle or spot to grip the plate when you take it off the rack, so with the heavier plates you'll have to use 2 hands to pick them up and rack them. Will certainly buy a few more of these when I need to expand my weight set.

This plate came at a very afforable price. The quality is on par with many more expensive brands. The weight advertised is accurate and the inner collar ensures smooth sliding onto any barbell.

Pros: - It's a heavy circle - Cheapest bumper plates out there - I bought two, they are both the same weight (45.8lbs)Cons: - Almost a whole pound off (as I said, 45.8lbs) - They stink to high heaven - Outer rubber scratches easily, keep these off rough surfaces like concrete if you can

I was impressed with the 45lb. plates. they were in perfect shape, no flaws. They did have a strong rubber odor like other people have described in other reviews, however it did not last long. I recommend buying some of these plates. These were the best priced I've seen anywhere. I am buying more soon...

Definitely worth the money , good quality

For less than a dollar per pound, these are very good bumper plates. I checked on the scale and the weight is spot on. Can't speak to how they hold up for olympic lifting but for basic compound lifts (deadlift/bench/squat) they are great. The people complaining about the smell are being a bit sensitive, the smell is there but its just a rubber smell that wears off after a day or 2. Nothing you haven't smelt in a tire shop or sporting goods store before. Its not a "toxic chemical smell" like people complain. I got a pair of the 45s, 25s, and 10s. My one gripe would be that the 10s are a bit flimsy and aren't perfectly flat. But unless you are deadlifting with nothing but 10s on the bar for some reason.. its a non issue. The collar is a much nicer fit for the olympic bar than the metal cap plates as well. Wish I would have bought these initially instead of the cap steel plates. Best price for bumper plates online

Unos platos muy buenos y de buen precio, pesan lo que dicen pesar y se sienten de muy buena calidad

Se sienten de calidad y pesan lo que dicen, si lo verificas en una báscula

Lamentablemente, tengo que decir que este producto tiene un olor completamente desagradable que no desaparece fácilmente. Llevo semanas con él y sigue oliendo muy mal. He usado diferentes técnicas para quitarle el olor, pero no es posible, tengo discos de diferentes marcas, y ninguno tiene un aroma tan fuerte como este. Creo que, considerando el precio, la calidad del material deja mucho que desear. Si se compra en oferta, podría ser una buena oportunidad, pero yo preferiría ahorrar un poco más y adquirir uno de una marca más reconocida y de mejor calidad.

If you need a thick bumper plate and don’t want to pay for the super expensive high end name brand ones. This one is a good value pick. There are several versions but this is their highest quality version with the thicker metal ring. Has a smell but goes away pretty quick. Does the job of bumpers. No issues. I would recommend getting these only when there’s a sale.

3 out of 8 plates look like this. Not made for impact. Will not buy again.
