  • You can’t cancel it, even 2 months later
Color: Chrome Style: 1-inch, 6FT
I attempted to cancel this order on 3 separate occasions with no luck, the order took over two months to arrive and I had already replaced it by the time it got here. They won’t let you cancel this item, even after the delivery date changed several times. The customer support was plainly awful. The clips on the bar also don’t hold very tight. That all being said, the one saving grace of this product is that the bar is indeed quite sturdy, most one inch bars are rated for 250lbs, I deadlifted 430 off the floor with this bar with minimal bending, however the inability to have the clips stay tight makes me not want to use it for squats. ... show more

  • Shop no more, THIS IS YOUR NEXT PURCHASE!
Color: Chrome Style: 1-inch, 6FT
This bar is the best product out there, not just for the quality but for the value as well. We needed a 6’ bar to go with our new bench in our home gym. This is perfect! Our 6’ weight bar weighs 25#’s. The dimensions in between the sleeve collars is approximately 49”. This bar is rated for up to 700#’s!! Not only was it the least expensive option out there, it is the best quality I could find!! Shop no more, you’ve found your next weight bar!! ... show more

  • Holds 400 LB Weight Easily (1 inch, 6ft Bar)
Color: Chrome Style: 1-inch, 6FT
This bar holds 400 lb easily. I bought this Sporzon 1 inch 6 ft bar for home gym, and wanted to test it before workout, because most other commercial 1 inch bar has maximum limit of 250 lb. Though this bar claims to have 700 lb limit, I tested it only up to 400 lb weight. I loaded the bar with 400 lb for 5 minutes (pic attached). Though I was scared initially but for my surprise this bar easily held 400 lb. That’s a great feature for any 1-inch bar. Though I will recommend everyone to test it yourself before loading with such huge weight. This review is to only share my experience with this bar. Thanks. ... show more

  • CUSTOMER SUPPORT & PRODUCT RESOLUTION / UNIQUE FEATURES
Color: Chrome Style: 1-inch, 5FT
(ATTENTION: Resolution/Assistance available on undelivered merchandise! Contact "Amazon Help & Customer Service" and arrange a chat session with a customer service representative. Solutions include product replacement or refund on order. Product Selections: LENGTH = 5-ft, 6-ft or 7-ft bar. DIAMETER: 2" Olympic style OR 1" Standard type. WEIGHT: 7-ft Olympic = 45 lbs; 5-ft Olympic = 26 lbs.) The 5-ft, 1-inch diameter, standard size barbell appears strong and sturdy - tested with 350 lbs of weight plates. Rated capacity of 700 lbs provides some re-assurance on durability. Most standard bars have recommended load of 250 lbs. No intentions on upgrading to an Olympic bar, which will require replacement of my existing standard-size weight plates. Bar features longer distance between the collar-stops (shaft grip area) - measured at 41 inches. Typical 5-ft standard bars have 37" between collar-stops /shaft grip area; this bar has adequate clearance to fit between the upright support racks of a Medium-Width bench (38" wide). The wider grip area allows exercise performance with better form & less discomfort, especially for bench/shoulder presses. (An option is the 6-ft, 1" diameter bar.) Ideal for a home gym set-up, particularly in confined space. Good construction: (1) Uniform, attractive chrome finish. (2) Solid, smooth bar ends, chamfered edges & WITHOUT center indentation holes at each end (neglectful workmanship). (3) Diamond-patterned, knurled grip areas provide good friction yet not abrasive. (4) Smaller size allows uninhibited motion/movement -- minimizes interference with equipment / objects in proximity. Item is impressive and exceeded expectations >>> 5 Stars! The negative reviews/ratings concern primarily inventory, shipment & distribution issues; and not pertinent to the evaluation of the quality & performance of the product. I received my merchandise earlier than the scheduled delivery date in good condition. ... show more

  • Has One Very Dangerous and Fatal Flaw
Color: Chrome Style: 1-inch, 6FT
Overall this bar is nice. It came appropriately packaged in a cardboard tube enclosed in a long cardboard carton. It looks fine. The inside-the-collars distance is 48" which makes it a close fit for my rack, but it does fit. The most concerning feature, though, is invisible until you try to use it. The 1" bar is a fraction too small for most 1" clamp collars. Even a 25 lb plate is heavy enough to defeat the clamp and slide off the end of the bar, which would be catastrophic during a lift with heavier weights. This is very serious: you cannot use most plate clamps on this bar. The only ones that work are the ones using a set-screw. Friction clamps, whether plastic or metal coil designs do not clamp tightly enough to secure the plates on the end of the bar. Fortunately, I have some of the old-fashioned set-screw clamps so I can use the bar. But the real problem is that I only discovered this by accident! I clamped a 25 lb plate on each end just to check the rack on my home gym equipment, and as I lifted the bar, the plate and clamp slid off the end! What if someone tried a really heavy lift? So BEWARE. The 1" bar is too skinny for most clamps. ... show more

  • This Could Kill Someone - DO NOT BUY
Color: Chrome Style: 1-inch, 6FT
I normally do not leave reviews, but I legitimately fear that this bar could end up killing someone. First of all, the packaging was horrid, and the cardboard packaging was torn in several places upon arrival. It looked like a dog had used the packaging as a chew toy. The bar itself is the real crime here; not only was the bar I received over an inch shy of 6 feet, much too short to properly fit on any squat rack,, the diameter of the ends of the bar were not to proper spec, and my 1 inch standard weights (not olympic) slid with any movement, even on light lifts, the clamps on the bar freely slid up and down the sleeves of the bar - the QC is THAT BAD. If someone at Amazon is reading this; PLEASE discontinue the selling of this item on your site! This bar could very well kill or seriously maim someone if the weights slide off during a lift (I had to use tape on the sleeves to keep the clamps from sliding off the bar). Despite being rated for 700 pounds per the item description, the bar severely bent during a 390 pound deadlift. Please save your money and buy a quality piece of steel, your body, and your gym floors will thank you. ... show more
