They make me as rigid as the plates themselves
This company is awesome! When I bought these, I did not realize the estimated delivery date would have such a huge gap. I am bringing this set to my summer home this weekend. I sent a simple note thanking them and asking if these could possibly be delivered by the end of the week. I received an email saying they will do what they could. Wow! That day, I received an email saying these were shipped and two days later a neatly stacked pile of boxes were laying at my door. I have never had such excellent communication with a seller. Nor have I ever received weights with the boxes still in tacked as well as they were. It looked as if I went to the store myself and dropped them off at my own door. I order Cap #45 and the weights are seriously falling out of the boxes. These had two boxes tapped together with multiple weights and just ascetically pleasing to see such care in the delivery. These plates are phenomenal. They fit on my bars way better than any iron I previously put on them. My CAP #45 when single stacked on my curl bar on the floor, the weights tend to turn-inward even with lock-jaw collars; not these bad boys. The seller, the manufacture, the distributer...You are all awesome!! A true testament of American ingenuity, integrity, and business brains!As for the smell, they are rubber. They are going to smell. I bought an outdoor patio mat (rubber) from home depot that I use as a gym floor in my home office. That thing smells worse than these. it took over three months to get that rubber smell out. Personally, it doesn't bother me at all. Maybe thats because I am not a WHINEY LITTLE BITCH. But hey, thats just me. If you don't like the smell of rubber buy iron and mess your floors and equipment up. If you want something that will sit right on your bars and take a beating, buy these. You want to man up, bulk up, tighten up, grow up, and stop being a crying baby, "ooh they smell!" buy these.Pros: They sit snuggly on my bars better than any of my IRON plates They are durable They are rigid as any other plate that I held in its class they are labeled in Lbs and in Kg's That snug fit...oh so tight (I think I should have ordered lube to go with all that tightness) The tens... so hard and rigid... They are nearly spot on accurate in terms of weight Great investmentCons: I can't buy more for a while They cost more than IRONNO CONS THAT ARE WORTH BEING A WHINY SPOILED AMERICAN BITCH ABOUTPeople need to stop crying about the smell of something so new and pure and innocent.

Very Good and Cost Effective Bumper Plate Set
Very good product and value for price paid ($429).I do not have much experience with bumper plates comparatively, however, these look like very good and durable quality bumper plates. I have only had them a day so far, so I cannot comment on durability or use just yet. A neighbor has almost all rogue equipment and aside from color and brand markings, I cannot tell much difference. Rogue might be better but can cost almost twice as much. Drop noise might be only difference.Some reviewers did mention the smell coming from them and how it stunk up their house. There is a slight odor that emits from them, but nothing that has bothered us so far. They have stayed in a garage with humid weather and temperatures of 88 deg during the day and mid to high 70s at night.Pros-No issues with weight distribution and they feel like a balanced plate-Most cost effective plates I have seen on Amazon-Great starter set-Seller Fringe got them here about a week earlier than expectedCons-Odor (I imagine this to be a problem for any rubber bumper plate)-Bounce noise (could be bar related, but neighbors rogue set doesn't seem to be as loud)

High quality. Expect to last many years.
High quality. Expect to last many years. I bought these for a garage gym I'm putting together. I'm a former crossfitter who got tired of paying the crossfit price. So I bought all of the gear and put it in my garage where my wife used to park. Don't worry, there's still enough room for one car. I'm not lifting the heaviest weight out there, but when I was doing Crossfit I was probably in the top 25% or higher of my class. So I'm throwing some decent weight around and not afraid to drop the weight from above my head. These things haven't had a single problem keeping up. They do come covered with some sort of liquid- I imagine a preservative for while they are being stored. I use some shop towels to wipe them off and life was good.

The absolute best.
The absolute best bumper plates currently out there. These things are solid. Low bounce. The 10lb are THE BEST 10lb bumpers out there. The 10lb diameter is just slightly smaller than the rest of the bumpers so when you drop a loaded bar, the other bumpers absorb most of the shock first. It also makes it very easy to progressively load the bar. The 10lb bumpers are super rigid and super strong. They don't flop around like some bumpers and they don't separate from the inserts after repeated dropping. In fact, I bought an extra pair of OFW 10lb bumpers just for the convenience of progressively loading the bar. All the bumpers fit nice and snug on the bar. No loose or wobbly bumpers. Don't just take my word for it. Do some research yourself. Go to Garage Gyms Dot Com and check out their review. These things are solid.

Great product at a great price
Top quality at a good price. They are not odorless as advertised. If placed in a small room you will have a strong odor for a couple of weeks. Mine are in a 2 1/2 car garage and I could smell them for a couple of days then for two weeks when close to them. The smell is not a big deal considering the good value of the weights.Now after 7 months of use I still think they are great! No problem dropping the weights!

Great Bumpers for the money
I purchased these bumper plates for my garage gym and I am very pleased with them. Construction is solid. I have not yet weighed them to check accuracy yet, but I am not a competitor, just working toward general fitness. They do have a slight smell, which I would attribute to the coating placed on them for shipping. As they are in my garage and it mild, it's not an issue. I have used them for deadlifts several times without any problems. They are as advertised. Good purchase. I would definately recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their home gym.
