Pros & Cons
Pros
A large pipe wrench, sledgehammer or landscaping stamper comes to mind when you’re holding it.
The construction is solid and the pivot ring for cable connection glides smoothly without the friction and squeaking. The bar is heavy, solid and of a very high quality.
The rubber grip is top notch. No visible signs of wear. I also prefer the premium version because it seems to have thicker grips.
Swivel center rotates freely. The rotating connector is extremely smooth and silent. The swivel is very smooth. It revolves smoothly and is very tight side to side.
Cons
There's a loud click as they rotate due to the steel tube of the grip having a ridge along the entire length. In addition, the bushings at each end of the tube are cheap, soft plastic, so they catch on the ridge with every rep.
Highlights
Quality
Thankfully this thing arrived quick warning its heavy and i knew immediately the quality was great
Very pleased with the handle over the plastic ones available
The quality of that bar was so bad it looked like it had been used for two years in a commercial gym so i returned it for a replacement
Finally got a piece of exercise gear with quality finished welds
Price
The price was great for the product design and durability and i literally received the item within 48 hours of ordering

It is machined poorly and catches like a ricochet due to machining imperfections with any load
