Kore PVC-DM COMBO16 Home Gym Dumbbells Kit (10)

I can use it for home workouts. I have order 30 kg dumbbells. In which they delivered (5kg × 4) And (2.5kg × 4) as described in the app. **Now the 2.5 kg plates are standard in size so, you can do dumbbell exercises with that. **5 kg plates are too big to do dumbbell excercises for me but you can do that. If you can arrange an iron rod, you can easily perform barbell exercises too. And the weights are really value for money. ** Lock quality is also very good. No concrete leakage problem but you have to handle it very carefully because it is not made of cast iron so, the plastic can break easily if you drop it and concrete body can break. **Now a small suggestion about the delivery, if you live in the 2nd floor or 3rd floor, the delivery boy will drop the package on the ground floor and to carry the weight to that floor you are living you need another man otherwise your lower body can be injured. I ordered 30 kg and the weights are in a very small box packed tightly so my lower body cursed me while I was bringing that to the second floor😅😅😅😅😅

2 plates are somewhat unevenly shaped. Overall satisfactory for the price.

Received damaged dumbbells poor had visible cracks & scratches.. The packaging was Not satisfied with the quality.

Jumping straight into the product description: The two dumbbells are made out of hollow metal rods with plastic grips in the middle, but it should be good enough to support up to 20 kg per dumbbell without any issue. The length of the dumbbell rod is 14 inch, while its diameter is 24 mm. The plastic bolts on either end of the dumbbell are of poor quality, they can break if one has a habit of dropping their dumbbells to the ground after a hard exercise set, so beware – treat the dumbbells with care. Should the plastic bolts break, they should be easily replaceable with metal bolts from your local hardware store. One can easily mount two weight plates on either side of the dumbbells, three weight plates would be quite difficult though unless one uses steel/iron plates. Coming to the weight plates – it’s a mixed bag really. The weight plates are basically PVC housings filled with sand, yes sand, not concrete or cement mortar. The sand used is not of the good quality that is used in building construction activities. Rather, it is the dirty sand one sees accumulated on the sides of our roads – sand that has taken on a greyish hue, with small stones/debris in it. But that is not really an issue as it gets the job done as a weight plate, almost! So what is the issue then? The deviation in weight from the expected value. I bought a 26 kg set – this consists of 4 nos. of 3 kg weight plates, 4 nos. of 2.5 kg weight plates, and 4 nos. of 1 kg weight plates. The inner circle of each weight-plate has a diameter of 26 mm. However none of the weight plates I received are of the exact weight they should be. I have a sensitive weighing scale which I used to measure each plate. Here is what I got: 3 kg weight plates, 4 nos.: 1) 2.812 kg 2) 2.833 kg 3) 3.025 kg 4) 3.166 kg 2.5 kg weight plates, 4 nos.: 1) 2.347 kg 2) 2.477 kg 3) 2.419 kg 4) 2.544 kg 1 kg weight plates, 4 nos.: 1) 0.939 kg 2) 1.004 kg 3) 1.056 kg 4) 1.097 kg Dumbbell rod weight: 1) 0.445 kg 2) 0.471 kg One of the weight plates was leaking sand as its cap was damaged, or was not fit tightly enough. To fix the under-weight plates, I carefully pried open the cap of the weight plates with the help of a screw-driver, added extra sand with some effort, sealed the opening with semi-wet white cement, then put the caps back on tightly with a hammer. For good measure I covered the cap with M-seal epoxy putty. Now my weight plates weight exactly what they should, or slightly more (jyada hain toh achcha hain!). Again a note of caution, don’t slam the dumbbells to the ground, the PVC housing of the weight-plates may burst open! So that’s that, the weight plates and dumbbells will get your job done in the short term, but they will not survive long-term. You get what you pay for.

Still working after years

Worth for money 💯

The pricing of this Kore 3-in-1 convertible dumbbell set feels unreasonable for the quality offered. The materials seem low-grade, and the plates don’t feel very durable or well-finished. The locking mechanism isn’t very secure, which raises safety concerns during workouts. Overall, it looks like a budget product being sold at a premium price—there are far better and more reliable options available in this range.
