Incorrect Weight

Who would have thought that a perfectly good looking kettlebell with a great big 24kg stamap on it would actually weigh 23.5kg?

That’s right, after I bought my set of cheap and nasty kettlebells and statrted learning all about the problems bad manufacturers can create when mass production takes over I decided I should weigh my kettlebells.

My 16kg kettlebell was on the money give or take a few grams

My 32kg kettlebell was pretty close too, 100gms off the stated 32kg

My 24kg kettlebell a whopping 500gms or half a fricking kg off the mark.

I don’t know about you but I don’t carry a set of scales with me everywhere I go and I certainly don’t fly interstate to test, measure and weight an order of products costing less then $300 before I buy online (my original purchase was online and all of my kettlebells since then I have purchased online but with newly found knowledge and an eye for a scam).

I DO expect to get what I paid for a 24kg kettlebell not a 23.5kg kettlebell.
