“The Husafell stone replica is nicely built and gets the job done. It can take a lot of abuse and looks like it will last forever.”

“Amazing product, amazing price. The package looked like Fedex had gone to war with it but the stone was unharmed. It's big enough to hold a lot of weight or material. Fairly slick so I recommend chalk or tacky. You will be bruised on your forearms and thighs but it is definitely worth it. It feels indestructible. Very sturdy. If you are into strongman workouts then you need this.”

“Great Piece Excellent size, unfortunately the stone/shield that i received only weighed 97lbs instead if the 110lbs as advertised. Otherwise I'd give it 4-5 stars instead of 3”

“This would have been a 5* if the shipment didn't take two months to arrive. The box was in decent shape. There are still a couple of paint scrapes off the edges, but that doesn't change the whole badass look of this hulking chunk of metal. It is so rudimentary in its design that it calls to the atavistic primate in me. Buy one but beware Fedex!”

“I received the stone as a Christmas gift. A big thanks to my lovely wife. That being said, the packaging was super banged up. The postman says "screw it", and dumped it off at the end of the driveway, which I can understand because this piece is larger than the human torso and weighs 110 lbs empty. Who cares about that though; it was still in good condition, and I expect it to get banged up. First thoughts? This thing is heavy. It make me feel like a badass when I haul it. I was able to carry it with 2 plates within a couple of tries. I was a bit concerned about the texture, as I knew it would get slick if sweaty or if working out in moisture. I also had linear bruises and cuts on my forearms for a few days after. So I came up with a solution. Pay close attention... Make a "pocket" for it. This will prevent you from permanently changing the beauty of the stone, but save your forearms and improve your grip. You can still use the stone in its natural form if you choose. Here's how I did it: 1) Make a frame in the shape of the stone out of cardboard, and connect the cardboard pieces with masking tape. Do not frame out beyond the bottom two-thirds, because you will still want the transport handles to remain available for use. Be sure to leave a couple of extra centimeters on each cut, as you will need to insert the stone into the pocket. There is no need to include a piece of cardboard for the bottom of the frame, as you will still want to be able to stand the stone up without the pocket getting in the way. 2) Buy a few cans of Great Stuff spray foam gap filler. I'm talking about the super sticky foam insulation stuff from Home Depot. Buy the regular kind, not the "big gap filler", as this will make the pocket too girthy. 3) Coat each outer dimension of the cardboard frame with the Great Stuff. Coat one side of the frame at a time, and allow a few minutes for each individual side to dry before coating the next side (by not waiting too long, you can gently push and flatten the wall of Great Stuff a bit). Each side will stick to one another, creating a hollow, padded pocket. If you have any gaps in the Great stuff, fill them in with more Great Stuff. When everything is dry, take a box blade (or scissors), and make a clean cut to the top of the pocket for aesthetics. 4) You can spray paint the pocket. I used black semigloss which patches the stone well. 5) Insert the stone into the pocket. It is a bit girthier than the original stone, which makes it a little bit tougher in some respects. The grip is great though, and you will have no more cuts or bruises on your forearms. It now looks like an extraterrestrial meteorite. All hail the stone!!”

“For the price I wasn't sure what to expect but I was extremely impressed when it delivered. The stone is well made and solid. No burrs or weld that needed filed down. The steel used is thick and will hold anything you put in it. The surface is slick which is fine but if you intend to train heavy for a meet you may want to beat it with chains to rough it up. The packaging was beat up so there were a couple of small marks on the stone which is of no issue, especially if you plan on training correctly (you will not be placing it down gently to keep it pristine lol). Very happy with the product!”

“Like the reviewer above, the packaging looked as if AFTER it re-entered the atmosphere, it fell off of a truck and rolled down a hill. However, the stone itself was in perfect condition. It's definitely a beast, even empty at 100+lbs. Highly recommended and not overpriced like the competitors.”

“I ordered this "stone" as an addition to my collection of strongman equipment. The item itself is great and exactly what I wanted. For anyone on the fence about buying this because they don't think they can get it heavy enough... this thing is big. Big enough that I can fit 2 of my 100 pound plates inside and still have plenty of room for smaller plates and chain. After messing around with it and seeing how much I could fit in it, it weighed at least 400 pounds. So the weight capacity should be of no concern. Despite it being very smooth and not powder coated like Titan's axle bars, beware of any possible burrs along the welds before you decide to take it for a run like I did. My forearm quickly found one. A small file will make it an easy fix. All in all this thing is a beast and a treasure for any masochist. I have to say something about the way it was packaged though. When I received it, the box it came in looked as if my husafell stone had to survive reentry through Earth's atmosphere in order to reach my”
