It's fine for a weight tree if you don't have a lot of plates. The horns are short, so I'm not confident in putting anything over three 45s on one side.

Probably the best budget loadable dumbbells you can get. I don't like using them except for rows, but that's just because I don't like loadable dumbbells. If you want a pair, these are fine, but the handle is a bit thin for pressing stuff.

Similar style to the Cerberus sandbags, but a bit less expensive. I like these, but they can be a bit loose depending on how you fill it.

A unique deadlift that it has to lie flat to lift the bar, which is actually kind of annoying especially when you have a good low back pump. It does store in a smaller footprint than most deadlift jacks, but that's the only bonus. The rubber padding of the bar holders is just thin rubber that starts tearing off quickly. It's expensive for how cheap it is. I wouldn't recommend.

Decent, stable pull up bar. I did want the various angles, especially the neutral and angled handles, to help alleviate shoulder stress compared to pronated pull-ups. The inner most handles are too close together, so they're not used. The outer lost handles are wide but usable. The angled handles are pretty much the only ones I use.

Great collars for specialty bars. Not the fastest since you have to turn the screw, but you can get good tightness. I would not use this for circus dumbbell if you have 25lbs or more on one side.

These are fine as crumb bumpers as long as you don't need to use them for deadlifts. They are thicc. Their value takes a hit because it seems like it's hard to buy them now (I got them used). They've lasted for a while, so they seem like they'll last though. The 15s are the thinnest you can use by themselves, but I wouldn't drop the bar with them.

I have pair of 10s and 5s in these. At this weight, they are fine. Nothing special. They have inconsistent knurling. One of my 10s is the LaCroix of knurling, the other is at the level of the Bowflex 1090s. I probably would be fine with these as a set for the price, but I probably will not go out of my way to purchase any more.
