Review of Cap Iron Cast Kettlebells
Quality
Your basic cast iron kettlebells. These have a smooth gloss finish which adds a nice aesthetic feel. The shininess is prone to scuffing if your weights appearance is important to you. Not having any rubber base can be annoying if you have your gym set up on a sensitive surface, especially if you tend to drop your weights after a hard set. So make sure you have a rubber mat, gym mat, or at bare minimum a towel to avoid scuffing your floor. The solid feel and "one piece" design gives the user the confidence in longevity. The wide handle area allows for two hands to fit in between comfortably. Make sure you wear nice weight gloves to avoid your kettlebells from slipping away.
Score:3/5 - Basic, but nothing fancy

Variety
A pretty basic size range for the majority of users. However does not offer lower weights for beginners or more mild users. If you plan on becoming the next Arnold you will be missing out on some of the heavier weights. 10-15-20-25-30-35-40-45-50-60-70-80 (all weights listed as US pounds) Score: 4/5 - Great set for the majority of weight classes, lighter and heavier users might have issues |

Overall
Great set for anyone looking to get their first set of kettlebells. Also a great fit for kettlebell racks as that fixes their biggest con, no rubber coating. If you are looking for a great price for a great kettlebell this is your choice.
Score: 11/15
