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

KK's slam ball takes seventh place in this guide. It is a sand-filled rubber medicine ball priced at £17.95, rated 4.5 out of 5 from 114 ratings, and it sits 9th in Amazon's Medicine Balls category. The listing describes a no-bounce ball with a textured, non-slip rubber surface, meant for throwing, slamming, lifting and twisting at home or in the gym.

The awkward part is working out which ball the £17.95 actually buys. The title lists four weights — 4kg, 6kg, 8kg and 10kg — and one bullet describes the set as running "from 4kg – 10kg". Yet the specification fields on the same page say 6kg three separate times: Size 6kg, Item Weight 6 kg, and Colour "Slam ball 6kg". The count fields disagree as well — Number of Items says 1 while Unit Count says 6.0 count — and one of the reviews below describes the ball delivered to that buyer as 4kg. Two of the five bullets are also the identical sentence repeated word for word, so the description is shorter than it first looks.

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

Verified purchase

“Great for exercise and practicing for a fitness test coming up. Good value for the money as I looked at others. The outter material appears soft, yet strong considering it weights 4kg. I would recommend this item.”

“This medicine ball seems to be well made as well as being the right weight for the exercises I wanted to use it for.”

Questions people ask

What weight is the KK Slam Ball?

The title lists 4kg, 6kg, 8kg and 10kg, but the Size, Item Weight and Colour fields on the same listing all read 6kg. The listing does not say which of those weights the £17.95 price covers.

Does £17.95 buy one ball or six?

The listing contradicts itself. Number of Items is given as 1, while Unit Count is given as 6.0 count. Nothing on the page explains which figure applies to the price shown.

Does the KK Slam Ball bounce?

The bullets say it is filled with sand, that it will not bounce, and that however hard it is thrown it will not roll away, so the workout continues without chasing it.
