Customer Reviews
I just started to build my home gym and it needs a lot of work, but Veteran Fitness Pros is getting me right! I’ve been using this set for a couple months now and my only regret is that I didn’t find VFP sooner to purchase one of their home gym bundles, which I plan on purchasing in the future.
As for this set, I went with the Prime weight plates. The look is much better than was expected, with a glossy cool black textured finish. The plates are one of the best fits on a barbell that I’ve experienced, and they are true to weight. They almost feel heavier than the weights at my local gym.
This set came with a ton of plates (not all are pictured in my review). I guess I didn’t realize how many there would be and now need more storage, which is a good problem to have. Everything shipped in great condition - this bundle came from a private freight shipper provided by VFP which bypassed other carriers that can be extremely rough on bulk items such as gym equipment. They stayed in contact with me every step of the way to schedule a delivery date that worked best for me.
The KRAFT Barbell just feels like a high quality product. I can tell it can handle more weight than I can myself. It has your standard barbell look with a great texture on the knurling, and phenomenal spin.
Shipping was quick, arrived in about 7 days on a large pallet delivered straight to my garage door. Quick and painless.
Overall I was very impressed with the experience and product from VFP. I asked their customer service quite a few questions and they remained patient and informative. I highly recommend these guys for any gym needs and will be a returning customer!
Love this bundle! 270lbs total weight which was the perfect add on we needed! We have the bumper rouge plates and I am reaching for the biggins prime first - very happy with this purchase!
