CAP Barbell Solid Steel Olympic Weight Bar, 5 Ft., Black (Fits 2-Inch Weight Plates)

For the price you’re not getting the best quality but it does the job. Get one just in case you’re isolated for 14 days in your bedroom or you’re recovering in your bedroom and your grown kids don’t want you in the main hone gym even with a mask for a while. After that’s done, the size makes this the winner and makes this a keeper. Barbell training during such times beats everything else for me. And the size fits. I touch this a few times a day to get extra resistance work in. All these budget bars always seem to have shavings inside the bar making some noise, but if you like the price, you can deal with a little noise.

This is a good short bar. Its 25 lbs and perfect for use in a workout. i use it for single arm stuff, deadlifts, get-ups, rows, presses and curls. The long bar just is not as comfortable for the single arm exercises. The price was nice too and the shipping was cheap and I don't live in the 48 states. Overall I love this bar and use it a lot for my workouts.

I previously ordered the same product from another retailer twice and never received it. Wal-Mart delivered in a few days and it was just like the description and picture showed. Love it!

This came in a cardboard tube, sealed at both ends, with a plastic sleeve to protect it. Not a scratch or flaw, shiny and black, very happy with my purchase, and great price.

Excellent bar! No complaints.

the bar has great knurling and feels comfortable in my hands. i rated 3 stars on finish because the bar arrived scuffed up. There was only a plastic sleeve around that was torn and ripped in numerous places. But, that probably really falls on the shipping company.

I order the 7’ barbell and just received it. Packaging was fine. On the description it says that it is a 20kg barbell but I ended up receiving a 16.5kg barbell of the same size. Kind of disappointing buying something with a poor description. Barbell is nice but I don’t recommend if you plan on receiving a 20kg barbell.

My low ratings are solely based on item is not as described / specifications listed. The inside grip area Specifications 45 3/4 inches. The one I received was 41 1/2 inches through the grip area. The sleeve Specifications was 11 1/2 inches. The measurements on the one I received was 13 1/2 inches. It may not seem like much but I ordered this item mainly because the listed Specifications was a big selling point for me due to the limited space I have to set it up in and the weight bench setup does not accommodate the shorter inside grip area. The only way to resolve would be to exchange the longer Loadable Sleeves 13 1/2 inches for 11 1/2 inch if possible. That would give me the wider grip area to fit my weight bench setup.

You get what you pay for… only 16kg 36 lbs… so not an Olympic bar. Measurements were not accurate. This thing was painted and has no grip, actually is slick and in useable as a barbell. Do not purchase and invest in a better barbell if you are looking to workout.
