CAP Barbell 2-Inch Olympic Bumper Plate Weight Set | 100-370 lbs | Multiple Options

If you’re building out a home gym and don’t care about flashy branding or fancy finishes, these CAP Barbell plates are hands-down the best bang for your buck. I’ve loaded up on a bunch of 10s so I can scale weight gradually, and it’s been the perfect setup for progressive overload without blowing my budget.They’re exactly what you want in a plate: durable, accurate in weight, and built to last. No wobble, no weird coating smells, no cosmetic nonsense—just solid iron that does the job. The center holes fit snugly on a standard Olympic bar, and they’ve held up great through all kinds of workouts—everything from deadlifts to rows to landmine work.I like having more 10s because it gives me flexibility in loading, especially for accessory work or when I’m working with clients who need smaller jumps. It’s way more versatile than just stacking 45s and calling it a day.At this price point, you really can’t beat it. Whether you’re outfitting a full garage gym or just adding to your current setup, these are a smart investment. No ego-lifting—just real training.Btw the rest of my plates are Rogue and other than looking cool, I can’t figure out why I paid so much for those

The weights came in several different boxes that UPS left at the end of our drive. I got a workout just carrying the weights to the house. Like most people have said, the weights come oily and have a smell to them, but I let them air out in the garage and they are just fine. The price is right for this much weight.

The plates feel solid, and they fit perfectly on my Olympic bar without any wobble. When I first unpacked them, there was a noticeable odor, which seems typical for new rubber plates. After leaving them in my garage for a few days, most of the smell faded and it’s barely noticeable now. Overall, I’m happy with this plates set. They’re sturdy, easy to use, and work well for my workouts. Unfortunately, one of the 45lb plate arrived with a split along the rim. While this was disappointing, I reached out to Amazon’s support team and they resolved the problem quickly and professionally. Despite the initial hiccup, I’m fine with the product and satisfied with the customer service I received.

Solid construction, smooth feel. A little easy to scuff up. Great addition to the home gym at a good price. They do come in an oil of some sort you will want to clean off and air out. I’m assuming it’s to preserve the rubber material in warehouse storage. Scent does go away. Functional and right on weight.

Great value product. Weighs exactly as listed. Boxes wreak of cigarette smoke. Weights were not very oily. Didn’t even have to wipe them down. After three days in garage the weights smell like new tires. Slowly going away. No complaints.

These weight plates are perfect for what they accomplish. Yes they had shipping oil on them when they arrived. I washed them with Dawn and dried them. They had a rubber smell for a few days. Not a big deal. I read reviews complaining about oil and smell. IMO those reviewers were exaggerating.I bought the plates for a leg extension/curl machine. The thicknesses are ideal for space saving. The ruberrized coating is nice for noise control.These were a great purchase and for the price , unbeatable.

These are a recent purchase, so my review is based on what came out of the box. I read all of the reviews about smell and oil - so maybe I was overprepared, but I am really pleased with what I received for the price I paid.Were they oily? Yes, but there is also a valid reason for it - and it was very easy to clean off.Do they smell? Yes. I think the lower weight (10s and 15s) were the worst, but again, I expected that and it wasn't as bad as I had read.Are they precise? Probably not, but they are budget. I have not weighed them, but they feel balanced on my barbell, so I take no issue with the fact that there might be some variance.Were they in perfect condition? Almost. One of the 45s had a small dent the size of a finger tip (nothing I feel I need to return over). One of the 10s had a little bit sharper of an edge from the molding (skimmed with a blade and that was remedied). They look great, and the color coded lettering is a fun touch. They all fit properly on the barbell.Once out of the box and bag, I washed with Murphy's Oil Soap, set them outside for the day to air, washed again when they came in. The smell was greatly diminished. I did one more day of this and the smell was almost entirely gone. I have also read that sprinkling baking soda and letting it sit - or spraying/washing with a water/vinegar mix will also help.I have seen many reviews regarding the 10's and 15s being flimsy and breaking easy. They are a 1 inch thick rubber plate - at this price point, structural integrity is probably a mute point, and can be solved by not using them solo.Overall - as a starter set, I am extremely happy with what I received. If that changes over time, then I will update and edit.
