Reviews from Force USA
These reviews were written by Force USA customers on the manufacturer's own website. Their review feed for this bar also carries a handful of reviews about other Force USA bars — a safety squat bar, a tricep bar — so we have filtered those out and the rating shown here is calculated only from the 64 that relate to this straight Olympic barbell. They are not NZ Muscle reviews and are not included in our store rating.

This barbell came with my functional trainer and I did not know what to expect. It is very high quality — looks great, feels great, super balanced.

Quality barbell, good knurling. Very happy.
-
Solid bar
Good price and good product. Delivery was in solid packaging and well looked after.
-
A well crafted bar, but it arrived marked
The bar is a good one. When I received it the shipping package was pretty beaten up, and the result was a 7 inch gouge on one end. It does not affect how it works, but it is something I will be looking at for years to come.
-
Feels good
Great bar. I have not used it in anger yet but it feels good.
-
Like the ones at the gym
I thought it would be a cheap flimsy barbell but it is actually like the ones at the gym. The knurling is really nice for deadlifts and helps with my grip. Love it.
-
Perfect barbell
Perfect barbell. Force USA is an awesome company.
-
Good bar
Great value, and the chrome finish seems durable. There is no knurling in the centre, which does not bother me. The bushings mean it is not too spinny, so during movements your plates will not start spinning.
-
Arrived oily
The bar was covered in oil.
