About Cap Olympic Grip Weight Plate Collection – 100% Acrylic
Overall Feedback:
91% positive
87% praised its stylish design, while 13% found it unattractive
I bought these plates because they have a handle on the edge, making them easier to carry around.
The silver paint on the letters and numbers is hit-or-miss, but it doesn't matter to me.
The 10's and 5lb plates were completely unfinished and rough on all edges and the center post hole. Additionally, the silver lettering on the plates wiped off on my fingers when I moved them, as if it was 'painted' on with one of those silver markers. There is no way there is any kind of quality control because if there was these plates never would have left the manufacturer.
83% praised for its high-quality plates
I have trusted CAP for the last 19 years of weightlifting and appreciate the quality of their products.
The coating of the plates seems to be of good quality.
I am very happy with the smoothness of the weight, great quality, and design of the CAP barbell weight set.
I prefer the hammer paint finish over the standard black paint on most iron plates.
83% liked the perfect size and fit, but 17% found the hole tight
Our plates have a smaller diameter than standard 2.5lb plates, but are thicker.
The next 3 sets of plates that came in were completely unfinished.
85% liked the accurate weight markings, but 15% found them off by a few pounds
I ordered two 45lb weights and measured them on a bathroom scale. They weigh 45.8lbs. I am satisfied with their accuracy, despite the bathroom scale not being the most accurate device.
The new weights have smooth edges, making them easier to grab and handle, indicating good weight accuracy for the strength-training plates.
The next 3 sets of weight plates that came in were completely unfinished.
