Ordered these to have more variety of weights at home. Took 4 months to receive them. They are easy to adjust to different weight numbers and easy to use. They are definitely more bulky that traditional weights due to the design. I actually hit myself in the head with one doing a deadlift with an overhead press as I wasn't used to the width. I am sure that over time I will get used to them. They are nice and compact and nice not to have 10 different sets of weights in our room.
Pros: Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use
Cons: Heavy / Bulky
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love how convenient they are especially for a home gym. Instead of multiple pairs of dumbbells, I just need one. Only complaint is they can be a little bulky and awkward for certain exercises. But overall love them for their practicality. #sweepstakes

Very well constructed product and weight adjustments are easily performed. Waited about five months from order date but well worth the wait. The dumbbells are larger than expected but easily adapted to within a week.

Waited over 4 months for these weights to be delivered, and when they arrived, I was a bit overwhelmed with how big they looked. But now that I've familiarized myself with them, they are actually really easy to use. So I guess it was worth the weight...wait!
Pros: Durable, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet

I have owned a set of these dumbbells for at least 10 years. I use them daily. I bought this set for my son-in-law for his home gym, and he loves them. They don't take up much space and are extremely durable. Can't say enough good things. I highly recommend the stand as well.
