A solid bar for 1” plates

5 out of 5 stars

A solid bar for 1” plates
Excellent quality barbell for the price! The chrome finish looks sharp and feels durable and is machined extremely well, and the grip is comfortable without being too rough on the hands. It works perfectly with standard 1” plates and the rotation on the sleeves is smooth. I’ve been using it regularly for about a week and it feels sturdy and well balanced and is heaps better than the hollow bar we’ve been using. For anyone wondering, it weighs just a fraction under 6kg. For a budget-friendly option, this Amazon Basics bar definitely exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!

    A solid steel 1 inch bar, that takes one inch plates. It's the third bar to be added to my home gym in the garage and it's of equal quality to the others, which were more expensive. It has a chrome finish with spin locks. Amazon basics but a quality finish, no rough edges, nothing sharp or unfinished. The knurled grip is well done. For the price, there’s really very little to complain about here. It’s a simple, no-nonsense bar that does exactly what it says. It arrived very well packed. I'm more than happy to recommend it.

    This isn't a bad bar for the price.
    It's quite strong and well finished, although the knurling is a little rough. If you wear gloves when lifting it won't be an issue and you'll get a good grip.
    The spin collars run smoothly although take a lot longer to tighten up than quick release collars. They fit my dumbbell collars though so seem a standard size.
    Takes standard 1" weights well and doesn't bend when you've got 60-70kg on it.

    Barra maciza, 6 kgr, acero cromado

    Reviewed in Spain on 14 September 2025

    Style Name: 5 ft Straight Bar, 1" DiameterAmazon Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What’s this? )

    Esta barra para levantamiento de pesas es un básico imprescindible para empezar nuestro gimnasio en casa. Hasta ahora hemos tirado con las mancuernas, pero desde luego, esta barra amplía enormemente las posibilidades de entrenamiento de musculación en casa.
    La calidad de la barra es excelente, en acero cromado, maciza, con zonas de agarre antideslizantes para las manos (mejor usar guantes de gimnasio). Además incluye roscas de fijación para las pesas muy fáciles de ajustar y seguras.
    La barra sola ya pesa unos 6 kgr., por lo que para principiantes se puede usar sin pesas, para ir añadiendo poco a poco más peso, según evolucione el entrenamiento, siempre de forma progresiva. Tenemos en casa varias pesas que usamos con las mancuernas, y la compatibilidad es total, encajan perfecto.
    Compra 100% recomendable, pocas veces defraudan los productos de Amazon Basics, buena calidad a un precio imbatible. 5 estrellas.

    Per chi si allena in casa

    Reviewed in Italy on 17 September 2025

    Style Name: 5 ft Straight Bar, 1" DiameterAmazon Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What’s this? )

    Ottimo per chi vuole allenarsi a casa con un attrezzo affidabile e resistente senza spendere troppo. La lunghezza di 1,5 m è ideale per chi ha poco spazio ma vuole comunque eseguire esercizi completi, mentre il diametro di 2,5 cm permette di utilizzare senza problemi i dischi standard da 1”.
    L'acciaio è robusto, con una buona zigrinatura che offre un’ottima presa anche senza guanti. Le chiusure a vite tengono i pesi ben fermi, quindi non c’è il rischio che i dischi scivolino durante l’allenamento.

    Decent bar, very good value for the average lifter

    Style Name: 5 ft Straight Bar, 1" DiameterAmazon Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What’s this? )

    This barbell from Amazon is a decent value for those with a small home gym and some weight plates. The measurements are accurate as stated in the description: 60” long, just over 10.5” sleeve, and about 13.5lb total weight.
    The threaded sleeve is a standard thread, so if you have other star locks all should be interchangeable. The locks themselves fit a bit loosely on the sleeve, but aren’t in danger of skipping/slipping. There is just a bit more play in them than nicer locks.
    The locks have a rubber ring inset into the plate-facing side, which helps to keep them from loosening once tightened. I have an older set of locks that do not have this feature, but I like it.
    Knurled grips are good, shallow enough to be comfortable without gloves.
    Do note the weight limit. I’m certainly not in danger of coming close to it, but if you do anticipate needing more than 250lb, keep looking for another option.
    Decent bar, very good value for the average lifter.

    excellente qualité , reçu rapidement malgré une expédition par la poste (surement le format du produit et le poids : 15kg)
    emballage impeccable avec un carton tout en longueur et à l'intérieur , encore un carton avec mousse pour supporter la barre , dis comme cela ça fait peut beaucoup mais c'est nécessaire vu le poids et le transport , prévoyez d'être la pour la réception car ça ne rentre pas dans la boite aux lettres :)
    au niveua de l'article la qualité est la avec des support pour mettre les poids sur le coté et des poignées antidérapantes
    bref complet et de bonne facture , je recommande
