from 318 reviewsI purchased a factory second, but I could not tell what the defect was; it is my first buy from Pro Kettlebell, and it's the Atlas, which is indeed much lower to the ground than my other competition bells, similar to a black cast iron bell in that regard, and as such, requires a deeper hinge/squat to initiate engagement. I am now curious about the Apollo model. As I actually bought the Atlas for a smaller - framed friend, it is a good choice for them, at 5' 4", yet I am 5' 10" and accustomed to competition sizes. Regarding the quality, the Atlas is an excellent cast; as a steel foundry worker in the past, it's easy to recognize a good pour from a melt. Well done. I do have to say, I am not a fan of the guitar pick, indent style of the Atlas. The most important thing for me, really, is finding a USA manufacturer of competition kettlbells; hollow core and standard handles. So I may have to buy an Apollo and ignore the design element of the 'ergonomics' involved with the guitar-pick and indent. I know these are intended to ease strain and improve form;I would rather see Pro Kettlebell creating a more standard round body, even a USA made version of the Vulcan style, extra wide handle for dedicated two-handed swings. I was not as impressed with some other brands, such as Paradgm Pro, their casting led me dubious, as they use a piece of rebar inside to stabilize the outer shell, and while kettle bell kings are fine, the quality of Pro Kettlebell steel is obviously a superior. I do recommend Pro Kettlebell Atlas over standard cast iron bells, and I have had a full set of Rogue bells; my two cents; support USA made.

These are the best Kettlebells. Shipping is fast too
The ergonomics of the bell, weight distribution along the chips are the best way to improve form, mobility, and strength. Great product.
I’ve been training with kettlebells since 2012. Got into them on active due because they offered a small portable gym while deployed.
This is my first competition style bell (all hard style bells prior) and I have fallen in love with kettlebell training again. The arm pockets allow me to lift longer and more comfortably as well as the handle allows for a better grip without the use of chalk. Also since I’ve been doing longer sets I have yet to rip my hands which is something that if I was not carful with using the hard style bells would happen every so often.
The one negative I will give the bell is that due to no protective coating around the handle and horns, those areas tend to develop rust quickly from sweat. I do I’ve in Texas which is hot most of the year so cooler climate may not have the same issue. I contacted Pro Kettlebell directly with tips on how to manage the rust issue to which they responded promptly with great answers.
Despite this one negative I still give these bells 5 stars. All the benefits out weigh the 1 negative immensely!!!
I plan on replacing all my bells with Pro Kettlebells!!!
PS: be prepared to wait on receiving your order. I waited almost 4 months. I contacted Pro Kettlebell and they again responded in a timely manner. I even got to the point I regretted ordering but the wait was truly worth it.
Patience is a virtue they say! lol 😂
I am new to kettlebells and purchased 4kg through 24kg Altas kettlebells. These are well made and I find working with them has re-energized my strength and conditioning program. Worth the wait, if out of stock.
First I want to acknowledge pro kettle bell and their ongoing unwavering support of competitions in Canada. My first purchase was inspired with their generous gift coupon at a competition in Nanaimo Canada. I recently purchased two kettle bells, 12 kg and 16 kg atlas line. From my online purchase experience, through delivery and subsequent use of these beautiful kettle bells I’m thrilled and would recommend highly these bells to anybody serious about competitive lifting.
This is my second purchase from ProKettlebell. My 20kg bell just arrived to go with my 8, 12 and 16 (all singles).
The 20 seems to be even more impressive than my previous purchase. The spot for the magnet seems to be smoother and has a lip for better contact and fit. Paint and finish are flawless. Feel in the hand is amazing. I don’t use chalk and I have zero issues besides some calluses that I sand down occasionally.
My only caution to potential buyers would be that ProKettlebells are going to ruin the traditional cast iron bells you see in your local gym. Once you go ProKettlebell you won’t go back. Proceed with caution. They are very addictive.
A must have for anyone serious about taking their Kettlebell practice to the next level!
Absolutely the best kettlebell ever!!!!
I love how the handle feels similar to my cast iron that im used to. The balance is perfect.
The shape does in fact force the proper grip while in rack and overhead.
As far as being a factory second the weight is exactly what it’s supposed to be and I really cant see where it’s blemished .
I absolutely love this kettlebell and will definitely add more as they become available.
Picked up a 16+20kg Atlas bell and couldn’t be happier. They highlighted and allowed me to correct a form/problem that was a result of working with multi-size traditional KBs previously. Bonus - no more hamburger hands on long sets! Love the versatility of the wide/open base too.
I am 86 years old, weigh 83 lbs on good days, and am 5 ft tall. Been swinging kbs since I met Pavel 20 years ago. Flash: arthritic thumbs and kbs do not go well together, so how to continue with my beloved kbs?? THE ATLAS. The unique shape actually takes what was very hurtful pressure off my thumbs when in the rack or any resting proper hand position. What a joy...
Can't thank you enough for creating such a wonderful addition to the world of kettlebells.

Highly recommend Pro Kettlebells. They have an ergonomic design, with a consistent center of gravity & excellent quality control. Worth the 4+ week wait to receive all my Pro Kettlebells (two 8kgs, a 12kg, a 16kg, a 1kg plate & a 2kg plate). Nikolai is very customer focused.
Great quality
Bell is very comfortable on
Cleans, snatches
Will by again
Very satisfied by the handling of my complaint by costumer service (Amber thank you again!), and as anticipated, the kettlebell (16kg), hopefully the first of many from this brand, is just awesome!
