CAP Barbell 150 LB Coated Hex Dumbbell Weight Set with Vertical Rack | Multiple Colors

This product is amazing. Yes the weights came lightly oily but I’m assuming they do that on purpose so the weights don’t become rusty during travel if the box gets wet. There is barely any smell. The smell is your usual gym smell, anyone who says otherwise has never walked into a gym. Each weight came in perfect shape. The base is absolutely extremely solid, any person who says otherwise does not know how to tighten a screw with a wrench and Alan key. These weights are absolutely amazing for their price. I would buy again from this company. The weights arrive in 4 boxes. The 25LBS weights arrive a few days after the first three boxes due to shipping regulations. Overall, an amazing buy.

Great weight set. Like others have commented is that they do have a smell and have some kind of oil/grease on them that you will need to clean off before use. It’s a good variety of weights and handle size is good for people with small hands. My prior weights had to thick of a handle which made them hard to lift properly. Stand is compact and fits nicely in my room.

The weights themselves are great. Very solid, nice handles, good materials. For the price, this a really great set of weights and it’s great having the 5 lb. increments. The rack was easy to put together, looks great, and doesn’t take up much space at all. The first downside is the smell when they arrive. I knew about this from other reviews so i unboxed them outside, rubbed them down with a dish rag using soapy water, and let them stay outside (under a covered area) for a few days. They still have a smell up close now but they don’t stink up the room like they would have. The bigger downside that I don’t have any solution for is the width of the rack hooks. They are made to hold the weights at a good spot on the handles, but that makes them more narrow than your hand. When I pull them out, I can only grab them with 3 fingers and when I put them back I have to kindof toss them in a bit or risk pinching parts of my hand against the hook. (see pictures) Given all of that, I’m taking off half a star for the rack width because, as long as you clean them well when you get them, they are otherwise a great set and well worth the cost.

This CAP Barbell dumbbell set is exactly what I needed to round out my home gym. The coated hex dumbbells feel solid and well‑balanced, and the coating helps protect both the weights and the floor. The vertical rack is sturdy, space‑saving, and keeps everything organized without taking up much room. It’s a convenient range of weights for strength training, and the whole setup looks clean and professional. Excellent value for anyone building or upgrading their workout space.

There’s a bit of a smell but it fades quickly. I didn’t find them oily at all or need to clean them before using. The weights/rack came in three seperate orders all within a week. Happy with these !
