My brother had a set of these dumbbells we were both using them so frequently that I had to get my own set. I had to wait months before they arrived but it was well worth it. I recommend buying the Boxflex brand. They have held up great and are very easy to use and change weights. They are space saving too.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens

I've been working out a long time and finally have the chance to build my own home gym. After a lot of research I realized that I don't have the space or the budget for a full rack of dumbbells. These multi-weight adjustable dumbbells are a lifesaver in that regard, they take up about as much space as two sets of dumbbells but are the equivalent of 15 AND they are more affordable. My ONLY complaint is the size of each dumbbell can be a little clunky depending on what movements you're doing. This is completely unavoidable if you want an adjustable set that can go from 5-50lbs like this. I've found I have to do a little bit more of a natural grip rather than supinated in some cases to avoid hitting my own side.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens
Cons: Heavy / Bulky

I ordered my weights in November and got them in late March. I was excited to get them. They are bulky to use for some moves that I do in my programs. I haven't gotten to use them that much. I think when I start a new program that uses more weight, I'll enjoy them more but I'm not if having to stop and turn the dials will be time effective. I wish they were smaller and you only had to turn one dial per weight and not on both sides.
Pros: Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up
Cons: Heavy / Bulky
