CAP Barbell Rubber Medicine Ball Set with Rack

Very well priced, shipped very well too. The rack is a bit clumsy to put together but I got it done. Just remember to have an 11/16 socket and wrench available, and put it together loosely before tightening anything up, especially the bolts going into the base and the support bars. The other nut size is metric, think it was a 13 or so.Check each hoop for straightness end-on; - you want them bolted onto the vertical frame such that they are all bent upward, if they're not welded perfectly straight. If you don't, the hoops won't hold the medicine balls very well. Better to bolt them onto the vertical frame so that they're not level, but extended slightly upward. You can always press downward on each medicine ball to get the hoops adjusted a bit lower after they're in place, then tighten the bolts.The supports that bolt onto the base and the vertical frame aren't very well designed - they don't fit over one of the attachment bolts for one of the hoops. To get these to fit, attach the supports to the vertical frame first, very loosely (you won't be able to do this any other way anyway). Then, really struggle to get the bolts through each of the two supports at their respective bases where they attach to the rear of the base of the entire structure.Then, tighten the ones in the base, and lastly the one in the vertical frame.If you did everything right, you had to bend each support at the top ends in order to get them to fit around that one bolt that attaches one hoop to the vertical frame. They'll bend just fine, and you'll be able to tighten that bolt too.Overall structure will be level on the floor, vertical, and stable.

I really like this product. I have yet been able to utilize this product because of a back injury I sustained after ordering it (herniated disc). I am looking forward to using it as soon as I'm healthy again. The price for this set was very resonable and well worth it for what you get. The only issue I have and it's very minimal is that the 2 lb ball was deflated when the package arrived. Other than that no issues. The set, when put together, does take up space in a smaller room. I have a 10' x 11' room with an eliptical and a total gym. Not too much room to move around in but still a nice product to have to build up my core muscles once I recover.

I used these in my home gym. They worked great. It was nice having a rack to put them off to the side so I could still park my car in the garage. It also helped to keep them organized and from rolling all over the garage.

I like the product, the only problem I had was the 2 pound ball arrived very deflated. When I called CAP to ask about it, they never responded to any of the telephone messages I left. They did reply when I emailed, though. They said that the deflated 2 pound ball is 'normal' and if I tried to add air to it, then it would 'pop'. This doesn't sound logical. I have a couple questions for others who also bought this set:Did anyone else who had the deflated 2 pound ball problem add air to it successfully?Did anyone who ordered this set get a 2 pound ball that wasn't deflated?Any input would be much appreciated before I try to put more air into my 2 pound ball.

First off, the rack is solid but much too large. You can't tell from the photo but it's much too wide and doesn't store well unless you have a dedicated home gym or a good corner for it.The main issue was that two of the balls (the #2 and #6) began to go soft after about two weeks. I researched, called, and tried everything to find out an inflation rate on these balls to no avail. That said, I pumped them up to basketball PSI recommendations, 7-9 lbs PSI. the #2 ball exploded and the #6 was fine until the next morning. When I went to use it it was ripped at the seems.CAP Barbell wouldn't replace these balls. Even though I was outside the 30 day warranty by a couple of weeks, the problem started well before then. I thought I would do my due diligence and try to inflate these balls before I called. Even a little understanding by CAP would be nice. By rupturing overnight (#6) it's obvious these two were defective. All others were fine.I've replaced the two with Valeo brand balls and that is what I recommend. The quality of material is much better, much easier to grip. They carry a one year warranty and even come with a needle AND recommendations on inflation and care.

This produxt is awesome... The balls and the rack are cool. Ummmm why in the hell doesnt this product have step by step instructions for putting the rack together? Had no idea which screws nuts bolts were which. The poles were not cut right to fit the rack. I had to bend them to bolt them down. So after assembling and taking it back down 3 times maybe more, it came together beautifully.

I put this setup in my office and use the medicine balls frequently with my patients. This is a great product for a really good price...good luck beating it anywhere else. The rack is nicely constructed and easy to put together...it takes up very little room and the balls sit nicely on their holders. Tossing these things around is easy and they have a decent grip. I am quite happy my purchase and do recommend this set for both home and office use.

As far as medicine balls go, they are pretty much the same to me (not being a medicine ball aficionado), they weigh a certain weight, they are round, they bounce, etc. These look great in their cool looking rack in our home gym, and you cant beat the price. We were quoted over $400 for another brand with a rack and I cant tell the difference so these are good with me.
