There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was able to use it with the marcy home gym system and it worked very well. So far I have put on about 100 pounds of weight with 50 lb on either side of this bar and have not seen any kind of bend or any discomfort in using this bar. It has worked very nicely and and is sturdy enough for the form to be correct.
It doesn't have threading on either side so clips will have to be used to hold the weight plates in place however it does have knurling and the place where you hold the bar providing enough friction so that the bar does not slip when you're working out. It is perfect for 1 inch plates.
Overall very happy with the purchase.
Great barbell for the price.

Affordable.
Knurling is great for bench and standing row, or anything else with a wider than shoulder width grip.
Although it will bend a little bit, it holds at least 315 pounds. Will update this review if it fails under more weight, but it is only rated up to 250 so my review rating won't change if it does fail.
CONS:
Slight permanent bend after 215 pounds. It bent exactly 3/32" over 26". I measured this before adding more weight. This is not a big factor in my opinion, but it affects my review because it really shouldn't do that under its weight rating. As stated above, I put 315 pounds on it and while it did bow a little more on my back, it didn't bend any further once it was back on the rack.
Placement of knurling: This is why I give it 3 stars instead of 4. My forefinger grabs the smooth part of the bar at shoulder width, so I am eventually going to add bicycle handle grip tape for deadlifts. I am 5'11" with broad shoulders, and this issue would be worse for someone with a smaller frame. Also, the knurling on one side of the bar is 1/4" shorter than on the other side, so I used a magic marker and then tape to keep my grip even (see pic).
Additional Comments:
Per another review, I added a 3lb. weight to each sleeve to keep the bar at an even 25lbs.
The Cap spring clips hold weights on very securely and are easy to use. The more expensive plastic collars slip, so I use them on my old barbell with threaded sleeves.
Conclusion:
I won't be returning this bar, but I will definitely upgrade in the future. It's good enough I suppose, but don't expect to be impressed.
