Each plate has handles, making them easy to move and load onto the barbell.
The plates are clearly labeled with their weights.
Barbell:
The 7FT Olympic barbell is sturdy and well-constructed.
The spring collars are included for securing the plates on the barbell.

25-pound plates: 24.4 pounds each
2.5-pound plates: 2.4 pounds each
10-pound plates: 9.9 pounds each
Barbell: 43.9 pounds
Summary of Findings:
