i purchased the 20lb weights. the neoprene coating on the handles had wire poking through the neoprene, so when i first picked them up (without noticing the wire) i cut myself in two places, one on each hand. one wire was so long, i used a wire cutter to cut it off. had to wrap the handles in duct tape to protect my hands.
i purchased the 20 lbs option. these are fine but the handle itself is very, very thick and that makes them a little more awkward to use. they are well made but the design definitely could stand a re-look.
i purchased the 1 lb weights. i like the neoprene feel and the pink color is beautiful. however my hand does not comfortably fit on the bar to hold the weight; it is not long enough. it seems like they would be good for a kid. so i will try to return.
i ordered these to use for starting a new gentle exercise routine. my other weights of 2, 3 and 5 pounds are all comfortable to hold. these weights are made with the same materials but are too short for my hands to grip. because they are shorter than the width of my hands i cannot comfortable hold them and do not find them easy to use. trying to hold them with three fingers just doesn't work. i plan to return them.
