Fitvids BFAW-1.5GR Ankle Weights Review
Our verdict
At $11.99, the Fitvids BFAW-1.5GR is the cheapest ankle weight in this comparison and by far the most reviewed, with 31,500 reviews at a 4.3 star average and 600+ bought last month. The weights are light at roughly 3 pounds per pair, so the appeal is proven mass-market demand rather than heavy resistance.

Buyers who want the most-reviewed, most-purchased ankle weights in this comparison and are fine with a lighter 3-pound total load for walking, light toning, or rehab-style movement rather than serious strength work.
Skip if
Skip it if you need real resistance. At roughly 3 pounds for the pair, it is far lighter than the GYMENIST 43237-2's 8-pound pair or the Graham-Field 1897's 4-pound design.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other home gym and fitness equipment we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Anyone scrolling through ankle weight listings eventually runs into one with numbers so far ahead of the rest that it changes the comparison entirely. The Fitvids BFAW-1.5GR is that listing here, priced at $11.99 with 31,500 reviews and 600+ bought last month, dwarfing every other option in this set.
The catch is weight. At roughly 3 pounds total for the pair, per the listed size, it is lighter than the Cando 10-0193 (3 pounds per weight), the Graham-Field 1897 (4 pounds), and the GYMENIST 43237-2 (4 pounds each, 8 pounds total). Its 4.3 star average is also the lowest of the four ankle weights in this group, tied with the Cando and Graham-Field, and below the Theraband 25871's 4.5 stars and the GYMENIST's 4.6 stars.
What the Fitvids gives up in rating and load, it makes up in scale of proof. A 31,500-review sample at 4.3 stars is a far more statistically stable number than the Theraband's 1,500 reviews or the GYMENIST's 452, and the 600+ bought last month figure shows active, ongoing demand rather than a one-time spike. At $11.99, it is also the cheapest option here.
Pros
- 31,500 reviews, by far the largest sample of any ankle weight compared here
- 600+ bought last month, the only figure in this group signaling strong current demand

- 4.3 star average holds steady across a massive review base, unlike thinner samples elsewhere

- Less resistance per side than the GYMENIST 43237-2 (4 pounds each) or Graham-Field 1897 (4 pounds)
- No premium material callouts like the Theraband's neoprene padding

Performance notes
At roughly 3 pounds for the pair, the Fitvids BFAW-1.5GR sits well below the heavier options in this comparison, the GYMENIST 43237-2 at 8 pounds total and the Graham-Field 1897 at 4 pounds. That lighter load suits walking, marching, light leg lifts or rehab-style movement rather than serious strength training, where a heavier fixed weight like the GYMENIST would apply more resistance per rep. Nylon construction is a common, breathable choice for this kind of wrap, though the listing does not call out extra padding the way a neoprene design might. The 4.3 star average sitting across 31,500 reviews is worth noting on its own: with that many data points, the rating is close to as statistically stable as this category gets, even if it trails the GYMENIST's 4.6 stars or the Theraband's 4.5 stars by a few tenths of a point.
What buyers say
A 4.3 star average is the lowest rating in this comparison, tied with the Cando 10-0193 and Graham-Field 1897, but the sample size changes how much that matters. 31,500 reviews is more than 20 times the Theraband 25871's 1,500 and nearly 70 times the GYMENIST 43237-2's 452, which means the Fitvids rating reflects an enormous and diverse buyer base rather than a small, possibly biased group. The 600+ bought last month figure is also the strongest recent-demand signal among the products referenced here, well ahead of the Theraband's 100+ and far ahead of the others' 0+. Together, the pattern reads as a high-volume, broadly popular product whose rating is simply averaged over far more opinions.
