Already when I saw the package for the first time, already my doubts have dissipated which I had due to some negative reviews. The package is compact (approximately 25x40x12 cm) and very safe and packed tight with tension straps and package film (!) - No slipping, no damage. When you open the same positive image, all parts are fixed in a styrofoam form and are individually wrapped in a plastic bag. An unpleasant smell is me not even noticed.
The quality of the product itself is fine, the star screws close strong and light and can not shake weights. The weight plates are made of cast iron as described and no paint chipping. The bar is handy and fits comfortably in your hand. For the longevity of threaded screws and I can give them a rating, I'll resent after a few months.
The price of 50 is absolutely appropriate, for a few euros more you get herewith a much better quality, and I think so you have a lot more fun than a cheap product and the one or other trouble. Apart from cast-iron weights are better by far than those covered with sand or similar filled - less susceptible to damage, more durable and more compact.
+ Fast shipping (2 working days with normal transport charges)
+ Free shipping
+ Top packing
+ Good quality of the individual parts
In my opinion is an absolute buy recommendation.
