CAP Barbell Cast Iron Kettlebell - Coated Options, Singles and Sets, Multiple Weight Choices

The handle is comfortable to grip. Weight feels balanced. This is a quality product to workout with. The color is as described without flaking. This makes it easy to doing a solid workout in a limited space.

good quality, easy grip, good price. Great addition to your home gym

Very nice ! I like them……… my only issue is l ordered 15 lb weights, and l received 10 lb weights. Luckily, l like them, and they are sufficient for now.

Great finish and fit to my hands for a solid feel grip

The kettlebell was in perfect condition. It couldn't have been any better. The weight is accurate. There are no dings, dents, or nicks in the paint. The handle is smooth with no imperfections. I already used it in a workout, and it kicked my butt. Great buy! **********Updated review************08/07/15************ I originally purchased this back in 2013. So I've been using it off and on for 2 years. I've done a lot of research over the years on kettlebells and prices and features. Still to this day, this is the best price per pound for a kettlebell. I would suggest if you haven't used them before, start here. Here are some things I don't like about it: 1) The coating on it. I ended up having to put grip tape on this guy because when your hands are sweating, you are at risk of it slipping right out of your hands. Also that coating is subject to cracking and chipping off. 2) The size of the grip. I will give you the exact measurements so you know. The inside of the handle, where your hands will be holding it is right at 4 and a quarter inch. On the outside of the handle is 7 and a half inches. The handle itself is 1 and three quarters of an inch wide. So if your hands are as wide as mine, 3 and a half inches from pinky finder to pointer finger, then you will not be able to fit your pinky finger inside the handle when you grip it with two hands. 3) It's only available in lbs rather than kg. The staple of men for kettlebells is 24kg which is about 53lbs. So you can't get that in this brand. So you have either pick below that amount (less of a man?) or above (mister tough guy?). I still like the bell and continue to use it. If those things were fixed it would be the best bell on the market. Still a good purchase, just wanted to come back and give a more detailed review. My next bell will be a 24kg so I will have to find another company. Too bad.

Great kettle bell

good kettlebell...well made...price was reasonable

Good job Amazon! for shipping a (my first) 35# kettlebell internal box, wrapping, nylon strap, external box was a little lose, tape ripped a little, but my KB arrived in perfect condition. I was a bit nervous, given the previous quality issues reported by other CAP buyers. This one is in great condition, no damage, good finish, nice flat bottom. I love swinging KBs, I have made great progress with strength & conditioning. I DO NOT recommend the vinyl/concrete KBs by CAP, (15-20# KBs)they are toys and are way too big and have handle problems. I sent those back. Buy the cast iron ones only! Before purchasing I sent a message to CAP asking about the handle/horn size, handle dia. is 1.5" (approx) and horn width is 7-3/4"any bigger might be too big for my hands. The size is very well proportioned and well balanced. Recommended! UPDATE 8/1/12 2nd order Today, just received my 2 20# KBs, also iron by CAP. I put them through the paces! These are perfect weight for double-KB routines. Note, these also have big handles, about 1-1/2" in diameter. I like them for the challenging grip, smaller hands may not. These get slick when I start sweating, so I put some chalk on my hands between rounds. Product quality was good, finish good, packaging double-boxed, product box was strapped, lots of paper stuffing, my KBs arrived in perfect condition, thanks! UPDATE 8/29/12 MOAR Kettlebells Pleeezzz! Yesterday, I got my 4th KB, this one 25 lbs. See! I'm getting stronger, these really work! I swing 6 days/wk, never sore, always a great workout. 1-hand, 2-hand swing, snatch, clean, press, jerk, long cycle, windmill, Turkish get-up, bent press, various rows, floor presses, squats, deadlifts, lunges. Full body workout. Still very pleased with CAP quality and happy with my decision to collect this brand. I recommend this as the best book on kettlebell exercises: Kettlebell Rx: The Complete Guide for Athletes and Coaches Update: 9/30/12 I think I have enough... for now! I just purchased a 45 lb and a 30 lb, the UPS dude thought he was a tough guy, stacked 30 on top of the 45 but then the 30 tumbled to the ground, busted through the box and got damaged. Got replacement a week later. I thread a small towel through the handles of the bigger KBs and dead lift them that way. more resistance. Love KBs! FYI, the bigger the KB, the greater the variation in quality. As they get bigger, the finishing on the bottom and paint quality diminish. the 45 lb has a rough & rather uneven bottom, but I use them on a towel on a rug in the basement, so no worries. I'm starting to practice KB juggling, have to do that in the park, where they can fall on the grass and not hurt anything. that's fun! Side Note: I have met online a lot of great KB swingers on Fitocracy dot com, of course it is a good site for all athletes and anyone into exercising.
