“Absolutely fantastic quality and price-point compared to other adjustable dumbells on the market. These beauties also beat out the rest in terms of durability; I will be passing these down to my children's children! I highly recommend looking into the "Knurled Handle" upgrade option as well.”
“I love these weights! They are sturdy and the padding around the handles are perfect. The adder weights in the handle make these so versatile. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.”
“The knurling is nice and it’s quick to change the weights. Not as quick if you need to change the add-on weights but it’s not bad.
I have two small complaints: the packaging is not great. They come in two separate packages because they’re 50lbs each. The styrofoam padding is super cheap and can probably only survive one drop. Mine looked like it had been dropped multiple times and there was damage on the corners of the outermost plates. Power lock shipped replacements out without any issue. If a higher quality foam padding was used instead of the compressed bead kind, the packaging would probably survive better.
The only complaint I have with the weights is the handle. There’s the main handle and two support pieces that are a little bigger in diameter. I can’t wrap my thumb around without it hitting the support pieces. My hand fits fine but I just can’t wrap my thumb. Not a huge deal. I think these are your best option without stepping up in price a lot unless you’re going to buy the expansion sets. If I decide I need more weight for dumbbells, I’ll at least consider a different set like Snode or Nuobell just because it gets a lot more expensive to expand the power blocks and it would put the cost around the cost of snode or nuobells.
TL;DR They’re worth the price, especially on sale and if you’re not really planning to expand the weight plates.”
