PowerBlock Elite EXP Adjustable Dumbbells, Sold in Pairs, Stage 1, 5-50 lb. Dumbbells, Durable Steel Build, Innovative Workout Equipment, All-in-One Dumbbells, Expandable with Expansion Kits

I've had these for a little while now and really like them. I had tried one of the cheaper options that you rotate to engage different plates and they felt a little gimmicky. I've read tons of reviews on PowerBlocks and everyone loves them. Yes, the balance is a little weird, and adding incremental weight to the handles is both inconvenient and messes with the balance even more, but I see the unbalanced aspect as just something to get used to - and once you've accepted it, you can also tell yourself that you're working more stabilizer micro muscles. They also kinda suck for wrist curls, but they can be done with these weights. I'm mostly bouncing between 25 and 35 pounds right now depending on the exercise and find it really easy to switch the weights. They also make pretty decent kettle bells by gripping the bottom two bars of the frame - I pretty much just use this for goblet squats. I will also use one of the bottom handlebars when doing single leg Romainian deadlifts - it seems to be easier to balance with the weight hanging down just a little bit. These really shine for shoulder presses and inclined dumb bell presses, and hanging onto while doing things like lunges, they start to feel a little bulky for bicep curls and tricep extensions. I love how solidly they sit on the floor too - I even use them for step-downs. Pretty comfortable for adding weight to glute bridges and adding weight to crunches too. Between these, a pull-up bar (these are great for rows but I prefer to do them dangling from a bar ;), and a hyper-extension bench I have a nice little home gym setup here.

The PowerBlock adjustable dumbbells have been a fantastic addition to my home gym. They’re incredibly easy to adjust—just slide the selector pin and you’re ready to go. The weight range is perfect for everything from light toning to heavy lifting, and the compact design saves a ton of space compared to a full rack of traditional dumbbells. The build quality is excellent—very sturdy with a balanced feel during lifts. I was a bit skeptical about the blocky shape at first, but it hasn’t interfered with any exercises. In fact, they feel more stable than I expected. If you're looking for a versatile, durable, and space-efficient solution for strength training at home, these are absolutely worth the investment.

Very convenient for when you don’t have the time to go to the gym. It can’t help me with all my muscles, but the performance for what it was made to do is fantastic. The grips are comfortable. Weight adjustment is pretty easy. Storage is pretty easy as the shape is square.

I’ve had these for two years and still haven’t gotten tired of them. They’re still holding up like the day I bought them. The pin system is great because there’s no chance of mechanical failure unlike a locking mechanism. The ability to go up to 90 lbs is very nice, it’s unfortunate you can’t go above 100 though. My favorite thing about these dumbbells is how balanced they feel. Having five bars connecting the weight evenly allows for perfect weight distribution, it’s hard to go back to regular dumbbells. I also love the rectangular shape of the weights, it allows for a better range of motion in exercises such as shoulder presses or bench presses. I can’t recommend these enough for a home gym

This set of dumbbells are awesome. First they are a great space saver. Second, they are safe and quick to adjust. Also, there are many other mechanical adjustable dumbbells that are similar but the weights get stuck as the locking system wares down over time. However, this system is not mechanical, the adjustable pin system is easy to use and never fails to slide out the weight amount as you need, it's full proof and they never get stuck. The paint finish and quality are excellent. Also, I like the smaller foot print of their design and I though they would be awkward to handle but just the opposite is true. Since they are compact I feel I can handle the heavier weight with more control. I am close to 60 and for me 50 lbs is probably enough for most exercises, but for certain exercises such as shoulder shrugs I can still jump up to 70lbs on each hand. I like that I can increase to 90 lbs but I probably won't need to get there I my age. Regardless, if you're not a professional body builder and plan on exceeding 90lbs on each hand these are a great deal and product. I am extremely happy I bought them as they have done an amazing job with the design and the person who created this system really though outside the box. Oh and by the way, the box design is also a bonus especially when you go heavy and you plant them on top of your knees to kick them up for a dumbbell press. You'll see if you buy them. BTW, I don't have any endorsement with this company I just was impressed with the overall value I received, I know a good product when I use one and this is a great product.

The PowerBlock Elite EXP Adjustable Dumbbells have been a really solid addition to my home gym overall. Big win for space and versatility. Being able to adjust weight quickly without needing a full rack of dumbbells is a huge advantage, especially for home setups. The build feels durable and well-made, and switching weights is fast once you get used to the system. Works great for most exercises. For things like rows, presses, curls, and general strength work, they do exactly what you’d expect and make it easy to progress weight without clutter. Slight downside with certain movements. The only real adjustment is with single-dumbbell exercises like overhead presses. The shape/design can feel a little different compared to traditional dumbbells, so there’s a small learning curve there. Best for: Home gyms with limited space People who want a wide range of weights without buying multiple sets General strength training and progressive overload Not ideal for: Those who prefer the feel of traditional round dumbbells Exercises that rely heavily on single-dumbbell balance or positioning Bottom line: If you want a compact, adjustable system that replaces an entire rack of dumbbells, these are a great investment. Just expect a short adjustment period for certain movements.

Great weights. Easy to adjust. These are built to last!

My wife and I like using these since they are pretty easy to setup and the weight scale is sufficient for us both, with the ability to add more in the future. Cost wise, these are not the cheapest option out there but they're built so well that you really get what you pay for. If you're looking for a space saving option that works for multiple people, these dumbells are probably what you're looking for.

Fáciles de usar, duras. Sencillas y efectivas. Lo de poder quitar las dos cargas de 1kg a la vez, o separadas, es buenísima idea. Las recomiendo para gente que entrena en serio en su gimnasio de casa

Very pleased. Quick adjustment during superset is what I like

Så nöjd! Fick den på 2.5 dag levererade av MEIJER. De svarade snabbt på mina frågor och supersnabb leverans. Konstruktionen är så genialiskt simpel att man förstår varför de (enligt kommentarer) aldrig går sönder. Går snabbt och enkelt att byta vikt. Bekväma att använda i alla möjliga övningar. Viktigt att veta att EXP betyder att man kan expandera / utöka vikten genom att köpa tilläggs vikter / plattor. Jag kommer köpa till steg 2 om några månader. Finns inget pris för högt för hälsa och träning!

Great product!

Son cómodas, fácil de cambiar los pesos, una vez aseguradas no se mueven y la parte donde se sujetan al ser liza no lastima las manos y brinda un agarre firme
