Plates
- Material: ABS plastic or steel
Barbell
- Material: 304 stainless steel
- Length: 220mm
- Diameter: 4mm
Our plates are made through a process called injection molding. This process produces very consistent and good-looking plates, but does create some small marks on plates where they are filled and ejected from the molds.
Our metal plates undergo several steps including machining, powder coating, and laser engraving.
Each piece has to meet our high quality standards in order to be sent to you, but with that said, small imperfections may be present, are normal, and are not considered defects.
Normal processing time for an order is 3-5 business days. Oftentimes we're able to ship out your order faster, and large surges in orders may extend this time slightly.
We now ship to most countries! We are able to collect taxes and duties for some countries at checkout. If your country collects taxes/duties on orders from outside the country, and we didn't collect any at checkout, please be prepared to potentially pay some fees in order to receive your package. Every country is different.
Hi mate, absolutely love this product! Best purchase I've made to spice up my home gym and track my Deadlift PR!
I love my mini barbell. I’m bringing this with me to college so I can continue to track my PRs (and plus, it’s such a nice thing to have on my desk). It’s a great idea and I can’t wait to get the squat one when it’s back in stock!!
My Daughter loved it. I got her the deadlift barbell set up with her PR. She set her PR at regionals on her senior year. She set her goal and made it. You made her one happy girl.
Got the Squat for my husband. He’s already said he is going to have to get them all so he can set up a “little” gym.
So. Not cheap. You are paying for unique, detail and his/her volume compared to Apple making iphones is small. I like mine.
I bought the Mini Barbell for my daughter because she’s in the high school weightlifting thing. This is how she keeps her Personal Record.
What a great little desk trinket to show off PRs. Great conversation piece, vivid colors & awesome company to purchase from. Felt heard and appreciated!
Love being able to show off my PR, bragging about it and just having it on my desk as a decoration to add that extra flair !
My boyfriend loves miniature things and has been obsessed with MiniBarbells but never bought himself any. His fitness goal for 2024 is to increase his bench so he decided to use the card to get the bench. It’s a daily motivation to work harder so he can continue to add the plates! We’re gonna be buying more soon! They’re great quality and easy to put together, plus mini clip is so cute 😂
Got this for my husband and he loves it. He laughed at it at first but now wants all the other ones to go with it!
I got mine a couple of weeks ago, and the rats hiding in my walls have become too strong for me and have now evicted me from my own house. 13/10 would definitely recommend, can't wait for the mini bench press
Got this for my son’s 19th birthday as he works toward his goal of 500 on deadlift. He loves it!
The mini barbell arrived pretty soon considering the high demand, came in a nice box packaged with plenty of bubble wrap to keep all the pieces secure. Price is a bit high for what it is in my opinion but still worth buying .
The mini barbell is a fantastic display piece in my room and my fish love looking at it and being constantly reminded of how strong I am. Looking forward to getting the bench press stand soon!
Love the feel and look of the barbell had to get myself a mini figure to go with it,
Even with customs issues the customer experience was top notch and everything was fixed as fast as possible!
Definitely worth it and will be advising other to buy also!
Thanks for the great review Martin - it looks sweet with your custom mini fig! And thanks for your patience while we dealt with that shipping hiccup :-)
Very well made. Good quality. Bf loved it. The detailed to the weights and bar is super good. I would give it a 4.5. Only complaint is that 3 or so weights had some chipping but nothing horrible.
Wahoo! Thanks for the great review! Glad your boyfriend loves his barbell :-) Sorry about the ‘chipping’ on some plates, they’re natural marks from the injection molding process. To hide them, you can turn those couple of plates so the marks are at the back of the barbell.
This is such a good and unique idea for a product. The quality of the weights and the bar is top tier and I love the texture that it has. It is a really cool thing to have on my desk, and couldn’t ask for better customer service with the creator. Love it so much, would 100% suggest to everyone to buy this and can’t wait for more gym accessories to come out.
Thanks so much for the glowing review Brady! It definitely looks great on your desk. More gym accessories will definitely be coming soon!
I have it on my desk at work and i have so many people asking me “is that a mini barbell?” And YES it is. Everything stays in place and it’s just so freaking cute. I am a powerlifter who also collects miniature things so this is literally perfect 🥳
JJ, I'm so glad you love it! It's always surprising how the Mini Barbell catches peoples' eyes That's a great picture, too. Thanks so much sharing!!
Technically I bought all of the Mini Barbells I'm selling so I'm allowed to review ;-) Here's a picture of my personal barbell on my desk right now.
Got my first set of the barbell and plates a few days ago and I love it! They’re clearly high quality (being made from the same material as the real weights) and it’s nice to be able to visually track my progress without the plates taking up a lot of room. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because a couple days ago, a couple of the plates fell and the paint chipped. However, this was a minor issue and was due to customer error, so it doesn’t knock many points off. Overall, great product and I will be buying again.
I got this for my best friend and she loves it!! Shipped super fast and great quality!
Arrived really quick, and its pretty affordable for a gift.
The mini barbell is awesome but I am sad that you didn’t have 45 pounds plates but it’s ok I have almost maxed it out so will be ordering more soon.😁
The quality is amazing, I got one of each weight size so keeping track of the minute gains is that much easier 10/10
Started out buying as a gift, and ended up buying one for myself. Great quality, excellent shipping/packaging. Thanks for a great product. 10/10 gift for the lifter in your life.
