@shahadataziz624 Hey, how are you! The steel market went up so much that we stopped making them for a bit. Pricing has come down a bit, but it's still much higher than the beginning of the pandemic. We don't see it coming down much more, but at least it's not going up 3X like it was. Seems to have leveled out finally.

I have these and love them, but there are definitely something to be aware of. #1 - They are sharp, and using them on load-able dumbells or just grabbing them off the rack, you need to be careful of getting pinched or nicked. #2 - I've used the 10's & 5's on my bar for Oly lifts outside of say a 45lb bounce plates, and these weights have definitely damaged the knurling my bar sleeves, from dropping the weight. They're so thin and strong the bar can't absorb the force #3 - In a fight with ANYTHING, these things win. They tore the coating off my weight holders, gashed my floor mat after dropping one. They're seriously metal.

Coop lied, just measured my 45 lb Watson stainless steel Olympic plate and it came in at .7385 inches, which is less than the .748031 inches of the 45 lb weigh it out plate. Though to be fair, the Watson plates cost about $6,055.07 for 535 pounds (including import fees) or $11.32 per pound. For 535 pounds of Weigh It Out plates (substituting 25 and 10 pound plates cuz they don’t have 35s), the price is $1,462.96 (after 5% site discount) or $2.73 per pound. So the Watsons are 4.15 times more expensive than the Weigh It Outs, so let’s round down to 4. I think we can agree 4 times the price to be .009531 inches or 0.9% thinner is worth it.

Here's the use case for these: adjustable dumbbells, Rogue OXO collars, and Micro Gainz's dumbbell handles. The Micro Gainz aren't unwieldy, but you still get over six inches of sleeves, and you can stack tons of the 10 lb plates on them. So you can do heavy dumbbell RDLs and rows with them. That plus the Ironmaster Bench and some attachments and you've got a great dumbbell home gym that you'll never grow out of.

I have a tight lifting space, so these work great with my shorty bar. The cast ones feel great on the hands.

I have one set of 45 pound steel plates just like these to supplement my bumpers, just like you said they work great for adding some weight without using up a lot of room. When I bought my rack I really needed to save space but I still wanted storage posts right on my rack as opposed to other storage options. With a 10" post I can store 2 45 pound bumpers and two steel plates with enough room to spare that there is no way they are ever falling off. One negative I think you missed is the steel plates are really loud. If you're a bit rammy putting them on a barbell they make what I think is a really annoying high pitched "tingggggg" sound. I like having my one set of steel plates but I would never buy more. For me, bumper plates are the only way to go. I wasn't sure at first, I liked the cast iron that my local gym always had but I have a couple kids and I like to use my equipment after they go to bed sometimes. The bumpers are way quieter, also if the kids one day happen to drop one the odds of injury are less. I got my steel plates from a Canadian company that used to make good stuff domestically I'm not sure if they do anymore because they are perpetually out of everything, they are just as thin as the ones in this video im pretty sure.

I use the 45s (cast iron) for my gym's leg press machines and love them. You can fit 10 plates on an 8 inch weight horn, making them more space efficient and easier to handle than 100 lb plates, especially with the cut out handles. And they periodically go on sale for $2/lb with free shipping.

Best use for them imo is for plate loaded cable machines. Also if you have limited garage space and/or use the rogue stump bar. But they do suck for deadlifting. Just saying. Other than that, coop did good in his review. The cast iron plates are superior to their steel version specifically because of the lack of rounding and sharp edges. Smaller plates do not have handles and honestly suck to take on and off compared to other iron plates I have. I still love them though because their value in using them for the cable machine and stump bar is worth it to me.

Biggest value is with the 10s. You can load them onto fairly short loadable DB sleeves and still get >100lbs per hand. On longer sleeves, you can get 150+, which is great for heavy DB rows. But you’re right, the sharp edges are terrifying; if you’re DB-benching, you better trust the hell out of your clips.
