Fitvids Deep Dish 2-Inch Olympic Cast Iron Weight Plates with E-Coating

Our Experience

With a busy household and two teenage kids into weightlifting, I needed some sturdy, durable weights that wouldn't break the bank. These Fitvid Deep Dish plates have been a game-changer. The 2-inch Olympic size is perfect for our barbell, and they've held up well even after almost a month of daily use by both my kids and me.

What I really liked was the e-coating - it's kept them from rusting despite some sweat and water splashes. They're easy to load onto the bar too, thanks to the deep dish design.

My only minor critique? The coating is a bit slippery when dry, so they can slide around if not secured properly on the barbell. But once you've got them in place, they stay put during lifts. Overall, great value for money and they've given us the confidence to push our workouts further.
