Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The EXTREME FITNESS Olympic Weight Bumper Plates Set sits at number five in this guide. The version priced at £42.99 is the 5 kg pair: two plates of 45 cm diameter with a 2-inch centre hole for Olympic bars, rated 4.8 out of 5 from 65 ratings. The listing's own rating breakdown adds up to exactly 100 — 88 five-star, 7 four-star, 3 three-star and 2 one-star — while the review total on the page is 65, so those bars are shares rather than counts.

The numbers on this ficha are where the interest lies. At £42.99 for a stated 5 kg, the price works out at about £8.60 a kilo; if that 5 kg describes one plate and the pair is two plates, the same money buys 10 kg and comes to about £4.30 a kilo. The listing never gives a combined weight for the pair: it says Number of Items 2 and Item Weight 5 kg, and stops there. Worth noting too that the spec table's ASIN field does not match the identifier on the product page itself. Everything here is taken from the Amazon listing for this product — we have not tested these plates ourselves.

Questions people ask

How much do the plates weigh?

The spec table lists an Item Weight of 5 kg and Number of Items 2. It never states a combined weight for the pair, so the 5 kg is best read as one plate rather than the whole set.

Is £42.99 a lot for the weight?

Divide it by the stated 5 kg and it works out at about £8.60 a kilo. If the pair totals 10 kg, the same £42.99 is about £4.30 a kilo. Both figures come from the listing's own numbers.

What plate sizes does EXTREME FITNESS offer?

The title says 5kg to 25kg, while the bullet points list 5kg, 10kg, 15kg and 20kg pairs plus a complete set of all four weights. The 25kg in the title is not repeated in the bullet points.

Will they fit an Olympic barbell?

The listing gives a 45cm diameter and a 2-inch centre hole and calls it Olympic standard compatibility, so it is specified for Olympic bars rather than 1-inch standard bars.

What are the plates made of?

High density rubber, according to the listing, with a low-bounce design intended to cut impact and noise. The Colour field reads Black, Silver, though the bullet points promise vibrant colour markings.

Which version should I check before ordering?

The model number is HTBUMPER1 and the part number is HT001. The spec table's ASIN field does not match the product page's own identifier, so confirm the weight you are buying — this page covers the 5 kg pair at £42.99.
