Rank #8 in Best Kettlebell 2026: The Handle Nobody Measures
NORTHERN Cast Iron Kettlebell 2kg with Easy-Grip Handle
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The NORTHERN 2kg kettlebell costs £13.99 and has the best rating distribution in this ranking: 233 ratings at 4.7 stars, 89 per cent five-star and 3 per cent one-star.
It takes eighth because it is the cheapest cast iron bell here and the best-liked, but 2kg is a warm-up weight and its handle field reads 5 with no unit named.
How those 233 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.7 stars.

Questions people ask
What does the handle figure 5 mean?
Nothing usable: there is no unit, and 5cm would be twice the widest handle published here.
Is 2kg useful?
For learning the movement, for rehabilitation and for warm-ups, yes; for training, no.
How do I know which size arrives?
The part number names the 2kg, and the title lists the range from 2kg to 28kg.
Is it cast iron?
Yes, and it is the cheapest cast iron bell here.
Why is it eighth?
Because the record is the best here and the price the lowest, but the weight is a starter and the handle figure cannot be read.
How many ratings does it have?
233 at the time of collection, averaging 4.7 stars, with 89 per cent five-star and 3 per cent one-star.
