MIKOLO Color Coded Weight Plate 2-Inch Rubber Coated Olympic Grip Plate for Barbell, Solid Cast Iron for Strength Training, Weightlifting, Crossfit, Home Gym, 5LB, 2.5LB Pair

Easy to pick up! Love the distinguishable colors. Don't mind the messy office, everything is everywhere as we build the gym.

These bumper plates are great for the home gym. I already had 300lbs in cast iron plates, but I wanted extra weight that were bumper plates. These gave off an odor (as expected per other reviewers) once opened out of the box/plastic. I wiped down each plate and the odor was minimized. I have not dropped these to test the bounciness as I don't normally perform those types of exercises. Overall fun, colorful plates for workouts even when loading onto weight horns or barbells. These will work great for any home gym for sure.

Great set. I did not have a good experience with Angi for assembly, and was refunded for their services. I was able to setup myself with the help of one other person over a few days after work. Assembly instructions are straightforward. Quality weight set. Very sturdy.

We have plates from several different vendors. These from Mikolo are the best made. The shape keeps them from moving around, handle placement makes it easy to use individual plates for off-bar, handheld exercises, and the color coding helps more than I expected.

These are great and well made.However, the packaging leaves a lot to be desired. I've ordered a few and each time at least one is scratched from the poor packaging.

Have got Mikolos 15 lbs plates same design and loved no roll shape and handles. So picked this for 5 lb and 2.5 lb sets. Colors and big numbers help quickly identify while changing No odor rubber is best part. Thankfully 5 lb plates were still reasonable tolerance unlike 2.5s but have many black spots some I could clean out , other cosmetic blemishes and rubber coat damage across number. :-( Since have tried them have to give benefit of doubt that it has to be quality control oversight which I didnt expect it from Brand Mikolo and esp at this price point . So I can recommend but its a hit or miss in my experience.

Quality and looks are nice. Large white display and color makes it easy to identify. Best part no bad odor. Poor QC though had cosmetic finish issue and steel sleeve insert popping out and weights were off.

Packaging was horrible and it appears that the manufacturer may not be using quality paint or they are packaging the weights in plastic before the white painted letters and numbers have dried. I would rather not have them painted. When I buy something new, it should look new and not sloppy. 5 out of 8 had white paint smeared across the plates and the 2.5 lb plates were loose that my 5 lb plates have orange smudges on them. The white paint comes right off and gets onto your hands. I bought these special shaped plates so I can hold them with my hands for specific exercises, not just to use them on my Olympic barbell. See pictures!

We didn't receive one of the plates, and when I tried reaching out to fix it I was only given the option to return the entire set for a refund. I just want my missing plate that I should have received in the first place.

Horrible quality. Paint is flaking and peeling off and even rubbing off on other plates. Some rubber hasn't even been trimmed off the grips. Smell is noticeably nauseating. Some of the plates' core inserts aren't even fully attached to the rubber exterior. These won't last and you should avoid at all costs. Save your time and money.
