Amazon Verified Purchase
I was amazed in the quality of this weight system it is worth the money and was delivered in less than 4 days right when I needed it. If I didn't miss the delivery man would have been delivered in 2-3days make sure someone is home when its shipped to sign for pkg. the painting on the weight looks to be very durable and couldn't have asked for more HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product.
UPDATE: 2 YEARS LATER. 09/27/11
So it has been roughly 2 years since I last purchased these weights I figured while I am here might as well give a little update. These weights have been EXCELLENT and have not had any issues w/ the paint chirping off or anything of that nature I have put these weights under constant abuse weight lifting etc..
If your looking for weights please look no further
THIS IS IT

These weights came just as expected. I have been using them daily for several weeks now and am very satisfied. I especially like the built in handles. It makes them much better for various exercises.

Plates are plate, but these Troy VTX plates are truly premium grade. The casting is top notch; the design is top of the line and it has zero defects. What makes the design appealing are the handles you find in the 25, 35 and 45 lb plates. The smooth handles make it extremely easy to transfer these plates on/off the bar. These plates will add quality and style to your home gym.
Besides the plates, the set comes with a common 7' Olympic chrome bench bar (GOB-86). What I like most about this bar is the circular ridges on the sleeves, which gives the bar more traction for the plates than the smooth sleeves you find on some bars in the gym. Also, the ridges helps to give your collars more grip. Since this bar will be used for a home gym, I advocate higher safety precautions and suggest you use a lock jaw collar or even an Ivanko.
The maximum weight load is 500 lbs, which is more than sufficient for most home gyms. If you plan to squat or bench more than 500 lbs, then you should look into a bar with a higher stress-tension.
You will not be disappointed with this set. Enjoy!
