Pros & Cons
Pros
Oly bar is a great value for a home exercise routine. Works great for barbell, easy curl and hammer curl exercises. Works perfect for bench and jerks. If you don't want a hollow bar, this is a solid option.
The knurling is nice, the collars are fine, the sleeves are fine. They fit 2inch plates but make sure you buy the * to keep the plates on while you exercise. Great grip, markings and is a solid single bar…not 2 pieces * together.
Cons
The bar has bushings, but they are only installed on the inboard side of the weight sleeve. The hex screw is so large i don't have one in my tool box. The issue i have is these collar screws for the metal collars that come with the bar.
The burning is akin to an onion, but the smell is like */roadkill. There is 1/4 of slop on the outer ends of the sleeves which makes a rattle that i really don't care for. They were extremely rusted.
Highlights
Quality
It’s well made and looks like it will last a long time
Easy to use and very good quality
This 7 foot bar is one solid bar
Knurled grip has more texture and a cerakote like paint finish beats the old cheap flakey chrome
Price
This ez curl bar is a great value
As others have mentioned this is a great value for novice lifters like myself
I’m not sure where the extra money goes when you buy this in the store or whatever but save yourself some money and get this
Overall not bad for the price and size
Shipping
It also shipped quickly and arrived faster than we thought it would
This arrived quickly and is perfect for what we need
Only complaint is that it took an extra two weeks past the promised delivery date
Thanks for taking note of my delivery instruction to deliver the product a few hours earlier

You probably have also looked at many other bars for sale and noticed that some of them are quite expensive for a chunk of metal
