CAP Barbell 100 LB Vinyl Weight Set

Great price. Acceptable quality for the price. 2 piece bar is poorly constructed. Hammering pegs through to hold the two pieces of the bar together is not secure.

I’d give zero stars if Amazon would let me. Items arrived days apart not as a set, but in three separate unlabeled boxes. As I opened the boxes, it became clear why. The bar had clearly been repackaged by the seller and was not useable. The machined holes for the pins do not align at all. It’s complete garbage and has scratches on the metal from where someone else prior had clearly tried (and failed) to make the pins fit. Since bars apparently come separately, I requested a new bar from the seller. I was told I would have to return the entire 100+ lb. set at my expense for any refund. When I questioned this, seller was unresponsive. Additionally, the “set” that was sent to me did not include the spring clips promised. Buyer beware.

Cap Barbell 100lbs Vinyl Weight Set is a great set for starting or for more experienced lifters. I do like this set but when you use a workout bench for leg lifts or biceps crunches/lifts you're only limited to about 50lbs, that's 2 of the 25lbs. That's ok. But if the weight set were thinner then perhaps they'd be easier to move around and also you could stack four or up to 100lbs. I do think that for the more experienced or those that want to lift beyond 100lbs for bicepts and legs then you need two 100 lbs sets. So, yah, I dont see where these vinyls weight sets are sold as individual weights online. Yah, I may need to get a second set so I'm not constantly moving and unloading the weights. The price is as spectacular as the weights. Do not forget to buy the foam flooring which are amazing and keep your weight set looking nice. I do have a smaller steal set about 10 lbs, but they're rusted already and oxidized and brown looking; I do have sensitive skin so metal is not my first choice at all.

Decent beginner set for my teens, but the bar connection is questionable and bends at the connection with more weight. Replaced the bar and will use the weights until my teens turn the concrete inside into powder.

Great weight set for the money. I went out looking for a set during the pandemic and every place I went was sold out. This set was all I needed. Very happy. Best yet...I had it within 2 days! Thank you!

I took delivery of this item today and was super excited to try it out. Unfortunately, I regret to say that my excitement quickly turned into a nightmare as I discovered that the product was defective in the middle where the two pieces of bars are to be put together (pictures attached). The pins that were supposed to keep the two bars in place kept falling off/out. I had to improvise by using masking tape (the only one I had at the time) to keep them in place, which I am afraid poses safety risks.Also, the product lacks sturdiness and/or steadiness as it keeps shaking in the middle where the joint is. I would strongly advise future buyers to tread cautiously in their decision to purchase this product.

For what the set is priced, it's a good deal. The bar needed a little tweaking to set up, but after setting it up (and taping the middle) I've had no problems. The weights are as expected, but durable enough for my needs and my home gym setup. One of the weights broke during delivery, I contacted the seller, and they responded within a day with various options of full refund, partial refund, or replacement. I opted for the partial refund and felt it was the best option. For the price the equipment is a solid purchase. Also, the boxes were dirty during shipment, but if you read the sellers note they re-use boxes to recycle, not sure how true that is but I can stand by that.

This works well for a starter home gym and there is room to add plates.
