BalanceFrom Color Coded Olympic Bumper Plate Weight Plate

Color is great, fits well and no strong odor

I bought the 370lb black set for ~$470 including tax. I was sent the colored set. Technically, this was an upgrade, so no complaints. The product arrived after two weeks, over three days (I got 1 weight, then 4 more, and then 7 more on the third delivery).I had a lot of questions about technical specs that I couldn't find answers for in the reviews/comments, so here they are:Width: Yes, the 55lb red weight is thinner than the 45lb. Based on my measurements (pictures attached) the red (55) is 2 3/8, the blue (45) is 2 1/2, the green (35) is 2 3/8, the yellow (25) is 1 3/4, the orange (15) is 1 and the white (10) is 13/16. Loading up a bar takes about 10 7/8th worth of sleeve per side. This is pretty slim for cheap bumpers, and allows strong folks to load more weight. The red 55 has the best weight to lb ratio if you're looking to load up.Diameter: As shown in the photos (check the ones with the level), the white, orange, green, and red plates all have the same diameter at 17.5". The blue 45 is about a quarter inch bigger at 17.75. Because the 45 will be taking all the weight by itself, this concerns me for deadlift/Olympic lifts.Tolerance: The white 10s weigh 10.6 and 10.4, which is 4-6% off. The orange 15s weigh 14.4 and 14.4, so 4% off. The yellow 25s weigh 25 and 25.2, so 0-1% off. The green 35s weigh 34.4 and 34.4, which is 1.8% off. The blue 45s weigh 45 and 45.4, so 0-1% off. The red 55s weigh 56 and 56.4, so 1.8-2.5% off. Overall, my 370 lbs weighs 371.6, so less than 1% off overall. I'm pretty happy with this, considering the price.Smell: Out of the bag, they smell and have an oily feel--the weights smell much stronger than the 7 stall mats that I used for the floor.Durability: They haven't been used yet, but the 10 and 15 flex easily in the hand. The Amazon description specifically says don't use the 10s by themselves or they'll fold over--so I think negative reviews for that issue can be disregarded. The rest feel sturdy.Overall, I think I got a great deal. I'm very happy with the tolerance and the width. I imagine the smell will clear up with time. The slightly larger diameter of the 45 concerns me. 5 star until the 45 breaks.

After carefully reading the reviews and comparing prices across several brands (and a short-window price drop) I bought these. I wasn’t crazy about having color coded plates, but wasn’t ready to drop a small fortune to build my at home gym either and $40 for the pair was a deal I could not pass up.Well it’s true what they say, you get what you pay for. I know 10s and 15s are know for bending if dropped on their own on the bar, but these were like Jell-o. They bend by a good 2 inches just holding them. Leaned them against the wall (on their own) and they practically folded in half. Maybe if you are only using them on a bench press or for racked squats, but these bend under their own weight, let alone with the bar. Not to mention they were significantly underweight. I know variances are expected, but these weighed in at 14.6 lbs. That’s almost 3%.I also bought the 10s pair in the standard black (they were practically the same price). They are great. Exactly what we need, comparable quality to any CF gym Rogues. And far less variance (less than 1%). Don’t know what happened w/these 15s.

Great product for the price. I ordered the 370 lbs set in black, but they sent me the 370 lbs color coded set. I ordered the black because they were cheaper. Again, they are heavy (seem to be accurate and precise on the weight) and fit a 2" bar. There are a few things to consider beyond that. The colors are vibrant. My wife said they were clown colors. I think they look cool, but some aesthetically minded individuals might want to keep that in mind. I have a commercial grade rubber floor in my basement and the weights scuff the floor a bit if you move them around on the rubber flooring. It cleans up easily and I bought some deadlift ramps to make adding weight easier. The manufacturer states that dropping the 10 lbs weights alone on the bar will bend them and I believe this. I also think this might happen with the 15 lbs plates. I have used them for about a week for most of the basic lifts (bench, deadlift, squat, overhead press, etc.). I have not tried them with any cleans yet, but I do not anticipate any issues (using them with a CAP Beast barbell). Overall, a great set for home use.

I have this 260lb set of bumpers along with a much more expensive set and honestly I can't tell any difference. Will the more expensive brand wear better or last longer? Only time will tell. The feel and look of these bumpers I rate a 10. The weight seems to be spot on as well. Guess the last mention is the bounce....they dont. I can drop them from overhead and they settle down quickly as they hit the floor. Would buy again 100%.

A lot of bumper plates are super expensive now a days. I found these to be reasonably priced when purchased in a package rather than a set of two alone. I have the 45, 35, 25 and the 10’s. The 10’s are pretty flimsy. But other than that they all seem to hold up.

Only reason I gave it four stars was because of the delivery I was missing most of the weights and had to re-order them Still love them from my home and Gym this is an amazing product so I can work out at home too busy kids

I should have purchased the Rogue Fitness plates instead!When I ordered the 370 lb set, I changed my mind a few days later and a few more times again. Each time I was informed that the items were already "being prepared for shipment" and they were unable (or just unwilling) to cancel the order. The plates finally shipped 4 weeks later (absurd). Some of the plates were really oily and had to be cleaned. The 15 lb. plates are slightly larger than the rest of the plates, so I need to be mindful of that when I have a heavy load that includes the 15 lb. plates, which kind of defeats the purpose of having bumper plates. The 55 lb plates are alredy showing deformities and white stress marks from dropping them.I'll get rid of these locally rather than taking 370 lbs of plates to UPS. I can only imagine that hassle of returning these, plus having to wait for another set to be delivered.

First order did not show up but Q. S. Help me out and i ordered again. This time they . Showed up early its all here no issues. Only time will tell how they last. Kinda oily with little smell and finger nails will scuff them up real easy has a solid thump when deadlifting but little to no bounce. Over all they seem good for me i as was useing steal weights on cement floor. If they fall apart i will update this review

2 weights were damaged upon delivery.
