Weights combined into one save room but cumbersome

I use it for strength training for myself and my husbands arm workouts. It is bulky, making it harder to do certain exercises, but I am getting used to that. Prior to Covid, we would use free weights at they gym, which are much easier to manipulate.
Pros: Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens
Cons: Hard To Use, Heavy / Bulky, Uncomfortable

My son uses these several times a week and I use occasionally. They are perfect for every exercise we want to do and so much better than a full set of dumbbells.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens
Cons: Heavy / Bulky

So happy to have weights at home these work great for about 85% of the routine I have. The downfall is they are wider than expected so for a smaller framed person so a bicep curl for example has a slightly wider position.
Pros: Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens
Cons: Heavy / Bulky

I have been using these as part of my at home strength training workouts. It is so convenient to have all the different weights in one and not have to have a whole rack of dumbbells. They were pretty easy to unbox and require almost no setup. They are very user friendly. The only thing I've noticed that I don't love is how long they are. Longer than normal dumbbells, but it's just something new to get used to. All in all, I highly recommend. #sweepstakes

I love these weights so much that I purchased for my daughter for Christmas. She wanted to start working out at home but didn't have a lot of room so these were prefect. She loves them and is happy to have different sizes in one weight.
