ProsourceFit Solid Cast Iron Kettlebells Weights for Full Body Workout

Typically, in the wonderful world of retail fitness equipment, you tend to get what you pay for, or at least that's what we think most of the time. I've found, on average, that 30-40 lb. kettle bells cost between $50-75 when purchased from a local chain/store (checked Target, Sports Authority, and Big 5). This ProSource 30 lb kettle bell has been a fantastic value (purchased mine for about $38 shipped in January 2015) and it feels much better than the more expensive ones. I've been very satisfied with this kettle bell, which is great considering its one of the lowest price ones available online or in store. The finish is top notch. It looks to be enamel coated and baked on for durability. It's got a slight glossy shine that makes it smooth, but not so smooth its slippery. The coating is rough enough that you can grip without squeezing for life. There aren't any bubbles, imperfections, or that infamous "seam" that tears up your skin, so that's great. I'm glad to report that I don't have to wear gloves using it and have had no blisters. It's also very nice that there is NO smell/odor out of the box and after constant sweaty use and no color residue rubbing off over time. Some kettle bells make your hands smell like you've been counting pennies all day. Rubber/vinyl ones sometimes make your house smell like tires. A huge plus is the handle is wider on the ProSource than most of the iron ones I've tried in gyms and local stores. I have small to medium hands and I have a bit of room to spare on the ProSource. My knuckles would hit each other on other kettle bells, that's probably frustrating for people with larger hands. I guess it makes sense for those companies to make smaller grips because it would save money on material. The round diameter of the grip is nice too, not too big or small. I don't throw my weights around, so I can't comment on the wear and tear that could come from rough use. On level concrete, this kettle bell doesn't wobble, its quite level. I know these things can be hit or miss and it seems like more of a random quality control issue that we've seen more in cast iron than molded plastic. Also, to the reviewer that says this is not iron and actually "concrete": I took a magnet, attached it on the handle and all over the body, and stuck all over the kettle bell with the same attraction strength, so its definitely ferrous throughout (or at least the surface areas).

Its a giant block of steel. So there's nothing that can go wrong. Its painted black evenly and weighs 20lbs exactly. Great work out tool that can be painted if need be. Great value and fast shipping.

Everything you need for a low price. Solid, well distributed weight with a wide but also thinner handle for those who may have big hands but are still building strength. The thinner handle lets people squeeze harder for Bottoms up Presses or American Swings. Great Kettlebell! Jeremy @ Build A Machine Fitness

Well, it's a 35-pound ball of iron with a handle on top. Not much should be able to go wrong. I've used it several times already for extra at-home workouts, and it is great. I like the shape and feel of this kettlebell, and the price can't be beat. Love it!

The kettlebell itself is great: non slippery grip, enough room for a two handed grip, stable on the bottom, attractive matte finish. However, I was trying to match my set and the one I received did not match the picture in the listing as it was missing the logo. It also arrived with multiple chips and looking quite beat up. Disappointing since I paid over $100 Canadian. Since it seems to be only 35lb prosource KB available in North America (!!!) I’ll be keeping it.

I searched and searched all the available KB's amazon offered. I read reviews and compared prices. As a newbie to KB's I wasn't sure what separated one from another and why some cost 3x as much as others. This KB has a solid, one-piece build. It doesn't have a coating of paint to chip or latex that will tear. It's balanced and won't roll away bc it has a nice flat bottom. It looked brand new when I got it. I mean, it's a lead ball with a handle big enough to fit both my big hands on (mens XL glove size) and it's as thick as any handle I've ever felt on other bells. I don't only recommend these bells, I'm buying more...

Been using this for a couple of years. Worth every penny. Professional quality. Handle is comfortable for a ladies hand.

It's exactly what the description said. I weighed it and it was 35lbs and it's in the shape of a kettlebell. Perfect. Can't beat the price. I use it for one handed swings, tgu, presses, ect.

Buen producto y a muy buen precio de buena calidad

Muy buen producto, tiene un acabado rústico acorde a su aplicación, el asa está muy buen diseñada para tener un agarre adecuado.

Great product for the price, I was bit worried when I read some other reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised to learn they are indeed cast iron, and they are painted so they don't rust. The paint is flaking off a bit in parts but that is to be expected. If this is a concern for you the rubberized ones may be a better option, but keep in mind they are double the price. This is by far the best product for the price point on Amazon, and combined with free shipping truly a great deal, happy lifting!

Sirve para hacer muchas variantes de ejercicios, aun que si tus manos son pequeñas no la recomiendo, ya que su peso es considerable y la agarradera es ancha.

Excelente calidad. La verdad mucho mejor de lo que esperaba. Las estrellas por el costo-beneficio, ya que es un articulo de por vida.
