Perfect for my use
I'm 74 and no longer lift heavy weights. These are perfect for getting a regular olympic or trap bar to the proper height for those sets when I'm not employing 45's. Seem sturdy enough for my needs. my daughter, who also doesn't lift particularly heavy weights uses them and likes them also. Good purchase.

Not “solid rubber”
Falsely advertised as “solid rubber”. They are plastic and feel hollow. They will likely not last very long. I got these for the kids as trainers. Do not buy.

Desdlifts!
These let me, a beginner, do deadlifts. With the standard bar being 45 pounds and the lightest weights of this size being 22 pounds, these have helped me bridge the gap. Not likely going to last forever, but perfect for what I needed and worth it.

PERFECT for getting the bar up high for deadlifts.
PERFECT for getting the bar up high for deadlifts. I bought a regular set of weights that vary in size and then worked my way up to deadlifts and hip thrusters. I realized my weight would not work because it made the bar too low to the ground. Someone suggested the lightest bumper plates to get the bar off the ground and it worked. I wish I would have bought the full-size plates, to begin with. Bu this was a perfect fix.

Great buy
I couldn't find an equivalent product in Canada and decided to order it from the US after doing some serious shopping. I found the price was excellent for this particular product and was impressed to get it so quickly through regular mail. As a petite female I was mostly interested in lifting the bar off the ground when doing Pendlay rows with a small load. The rubber is sturdy enough to keep the bar very stable on the ground and the plates slide nicely onto the bar. This is a high quality product that I would definitely recommend.

Great, sturdy plates, but slightly smaller than the rest of my bumper plates.
Great, sturdy plates which help with training and incremental weight increase. So happy I bought them! Only thing to note is that they are slightly smaller than the standard bumper plate set I have (by a few mm around), so I guess that makes for easier removal and racking, but makes training dimensions slightly off.

Not advertised size
I ordered the 3# for the advertised “standard size” of 17.75” to match 45# weights, but the ones I received were 14” diameter instead. I returned them, there are other vendors that don’t mis-state their products.

Perfect for my gym
Perfect for my gym. My athletes use this as training plates to practice with the bar propped up in the correct starting position. Great purchase!
