852 Dumbbell POS 5 I do not think this can replace work out but I do believe it compliment a workout very well . that be say I goof around with the female version of it for a few minute when I buy it for my wife and my arm be sore the next day , you can definitely feel the pump if you use it the right way . I be definitely go to order the male version of this . again it will not replace work out but it be a definite plus to add to a exist routine ... bring out that much more muscle definition that you just can not get on you own !!! Shake Weight Dumbbell 760 Dumbbell POS 5 I have want to own these for year but could never convince myself they be worth the price . well they be . they be compact , balanced and comfortable . and of course the best aspect be that they take up a square ft. of room when not in use . stop tip-toe ' g around you weight room floor and buy these now . 946 Dumbbell NEU 3 I get this cheapo barbell set at the same time I get a weight bench the best fitness bfob10 . however , this be not logn enough to fit the width of the barbell support , you can place one plate on the outer side of the support , but the other one be dangerously on the inner side if you catch my drift . I can not think of a better way to put that , but then again , I be not Roger Ebert . I will now have to get a more ` standard ' barbell and use this one for curl and such . maybe I can use the weight plate on a different barbell assume they have the same diameter . I assume that all barbell fit all weight bench , but I guess I live in a perfect world in my head . next time , I will know ... so buyer beware . on the whole , it be a good product , it come in a BROWN BOX !! that be all tape up for extra support I suppose . it be kind of awkward to lift and carry around and I think I throw my back try to lug this around . maybe if they have a smarter -lrb- and more expensive , as it always be -rrb- way of packaging this to where you could lift it safely assume you do not have a buddy . . and my poor UPS guy shoot I dagger cuz he break he back haul this thing and a weight bench on the same day lol . all in all , okay product but for the price , great product . 8 Dumbbell POS 5 this dumbbell be use by most sport club in my school as a standard training equipment . the design of this dumbbell prevent slip between you hand and bar by sweat . hexagonal bell prevent roll on the ground . Easy to grip and safe to use . highly recommend . 61 Dumbbell NEU 3 I think I be get a bargain . these be great dumbell , but they be 30 % cheaper locally . I think the mazon price be for a pair . it be not . 718 Dumbbell POS 4 I purchase these weight to aid in my at home work out . I go with this one because most of my work out have you use anywhere from 3-8lb weight to be effective . the weight come wrap in the box . you will have to put the stand together . to make my mine a little more sturdy -lrb- base on other review -rrb- I use longer screw to ensure that the wobble factor be not so much ! it do come with screw , but they be short and honestly seem plastic ! the stand be small and can be place anywhere you want or need it . . and I love that . the weight themselves be comfortable , easy to hold and due to they shape they do not roll when you place they down . for the price I would have only expect the stand to be of a better material or even the middle piece that hold the stand together-if those be make of metal , it would have be so much better ! but over all-this be nice and I be glad I buy this one . 9 Dumbbell POS 5 I be a 51 year young man and need a way to firm my upper chest and arm . I must say I read all the review good and bad . well let I tell you after 1 week with a 1 day break every 2 day , I sure can tell that I have really do some work on my muscle . but it hurt so good . it be very addicting and I do believe that this will do just what I expect of it . and yes the first use be a piece of cake , but beware it will sneak up on you for sure . Got my Motrin handy , , LOL . I think that the quality be just as describe and be not at all disappointed . look forward to the result I will get , I swear there be a slight change in my upper arm appearance already . I be happy and would recommend it to any man look to start out with a low impact approach to a work out regimen . it be give I a new out look on myself and also a drive to go on further down the road into a weight lifting workout program . look out boy here come Daddy . Shake Weight for Men Dumbbell 79 Dumbbell POS 4 we buy these because my partner and I have very different strength level and need . we have individual weight all around the house and it be get crazy . now we just have the powerblock and they work well for this purpose . they be a bit unwieldy to change the weight on -lrb- the Bowflex one seem better on this -rrb- and the square shape take some get use to , but in general we be highly satisfy with the purchase . we do not get the stand , but we would highly recommend it . 441 Dumbbell POS 5 I have be work out at home with p90x for about 4 week prior to purchase this stand . I have to say that the ability to not struggle and strain my back be definately worth the price . 881 Dumbbell POS 5 if you have the Selecttech Dumbells the stand be a must . it be not difficult to put together and be much easier to set the weight and grip\/lift the dumbbell 515 Dumbbell NEG 1 be look forward to use this product , it do not do what be suppose to . the shake be very limited and it jam at random interval . 592 Dumbbell POS 5 after read several review for various dumbbell rack , I finally settle on this product . it be well build for a home gym , easy to put together , and look professional . Hex type weight be the best fit . once you move to smaller `` plastic or vinyl cover '' weight , they do not fit as well . overall , I be very pleased and feel the rack be well worth the money ! 434 Dumbbell POS 5 I have purchase the 3 lb a while back , and I finally feel ready to graduate to something heavier , so I get the 5 lb . as be the case with the older set , this be a good and useful product . they do not roll and be comfortable to hold . 216 Dumbbell POS 5 I have see the commercial one night on television and say `` huh , you have get to be kid I '' . I wait many month before I decide to purchase this . I have lift weight since I be a teenager and do all kind of workout with weight in a gym and at home . when I try it I be impress with the result and know it be well worth the price . I do notice on the dvd -lrb- unsure if anyone else notice this -rrb- , but you see he on one arm shake it , then you see he on another , -lrb- unsure why that be -rrb- . I do notice that when you do take one day off then try it again the day after you rest it become harder . so when he say see you tomorrow you bet you should do it daily . as far as do it more then once in a day I would highly not advise this , find another exercise to do , just add more rep the next day if you feel that day workout be not as good as you hope it to be . I have have a few people come over my home and try it out . Grant it they do not lift weight like I have for many year , but these people be struggle and not complete the rep properly . if you want tone and better vascular development , then this be ideal for you !!! 660 Dumbbell POS 5 this be a hexhead dumbbell : hefty and solid and great for do exercise . it be simple , it be make of metal . it will not break unless you be try to destroy it . 30 pound be a lot for a beginner , but if you can do 20 or 25-lb bicep curl or tricep kickback with ease , it be time to move up . 707 Dumbbell NEG 1 do not buy ! only 1 dumb bell . it be not a pair . I do not care what the quaility be , if it be not a pair it do not serve the purpose . buy 2 make it too expensive . 951 Dumbbell NEG 1 I order what I think be a set of 2 barbell , after all , who buy only one barbell ? apparently , I do because when the shipment arrive , it contain only one . I be irritated with myself for not check the description more closely , but I be also annoy with Amazon for not make it more clear that the barbell be not a set . 605 Dumbbell POS 5 I recently order the PowerBlock Classic Adjustable Dumbbell set from Amazon . I have be look for a set of adjustable dumbbell and do quite a bit of research on the various product out there . the Bowflex SelectTech and PowerBlock adjustable dumbbell set seem to be the most discuss product , by far -lrb- there be set make by other manufacturer that I do not consider -rrb- . aesthetically , the Bowflex SelectTech dumbbell look more like `` normal '' dumbbell to I than the PowerBlock Adjustable Dumbbell set , which look clunky in picture due to they boxy form factor . initially , I figure I would purchase the Bowflex SelectTech dumbbell . fortunately , there be a Sports Authority near my house that carry the SelectTech dumbbell and I be able to test they out in person . even though the Bowflex SelectTech dumbbell look really nice , they form factor be actually quite wide , which I think might limit some people 's range of motion when perform certain dumbbell exercise . they also feel really cheap to I . the `` unique injection-molded plastic '' coating on the dumbbell do not feel durable and the dial feel flimsy . who know ? I be sure there will be those who swear by they . I have never own they ; I only test they out for 15 minute in the store . after my experience test the Bowflex SelectTech dumbbell , I go back to the draw board and start do research on the PowerBlocks . in general , the review that I find on Powerblocks be very positive , although they boxy form factor still look really odd to I . the price tag on the classic powerblock dumbbell set be a bit less than Bowflex SelectTech dumbbell , which be a immediate plus , but I do not have the luxury of test they in the store . that say , I be able to find several helpful powerblock review on YouTube that give I enough information about they to feel comfortable buy they without test they . so I order the classic powerblock set , which go from 5 to 45 pound , enough weight for what I do . Amazon ship this product out to I in a timely manner and so far I have no regret . out of the box , these dumbbell be ready for use -lrb- no assembly require -rrb- . there be a one-page instruction manual that come with they -lrb- explain how to use the magnetic selector pin -rrb- . all in all , these dumbbell feel really solid . although they look really boxy , they actually feel very natural unlike the SelectTech dumbbell , which be so wide . unlike the SelectTech dumbbell , which require you to turn four dial to set the desire weight -lrb- two dial on each dumbbell -rrb- , the PowerBlocks only require you to slide in a magnetic selector pin to set the weight on each dumbbell , which make it faster to change the weight as a pair -lrb- two `` click '' as oppose to four `` turn '' -rrb- . I should say one thing about the magnetic selector pin on the PowerBlock ... it take I a little while to get use to it . when it be set properly you will actually hear the magnetic selector pin `` click '' into place . the pin actually work great ; it just take I a few time to get the feel . that say , if the selector pin ever break , you can purchase a replacement pin for $ 10 dollar through PowerBlock . who know what would happen if you break the dial on the Bowflex SelectTech ... although you do not need to buy a stand for the PowerBlocks -lrb- I buy the tray -rrb- , you should at least use a flat surface to change the weight -lrb- hardwood\/tile\/concrete floor would probably be fine -rrb- . I find it be hard to change the weight on carpet . the tray , however , help and be a relatively cheap docking solution . overall , I be extremely satisfy with the PowerBlocks . they seem very solid , and I believe that they be a great investment overall . 542 Dumbbell NEG 1 after use , I think you could buy a bottle of water , drink the water , fill it half way up with sand and shake . the muscle benefit would be the same . 7 Dumbbell NEG 2 well I must say ... I read a bunch of review and hype on this item from Amazon customer so I go out and buy one . I be very disappointed with it . I watch the video , review the instruction , try it out for 24 hour and be take it back to Walgreens tomorrow for a refund . I feel this one be cheaply make and be rather a joke to try and use . maybe I be miss something here . needless to say , I be go back to walk around the football track and use free weight again . at least I know that work . 285 Dumbbell POS 4 I wish I could give star in half ; this product would get a solid 4.5 from I . round up to a 5 would mean folk who be not take the time to read the review might assume that there be really no room for improvement , but there be . after read this review you might think I work for Powerblock or something , but I do not . when you be spend between $ 150-400 on a set of `` high performance '' adjustable dumbbell , apply a bit of logic can go a long way for you satisfaction and safety . \*\*\* area that COULD USE IMPROVEMENT \*\*\* to help counteract the perceive bias I might have , I be gonna try something different ; I be go to start with the con of the Powerblocks . 1 . the magnet in the selector pin could be stronger . as a safety measure , there be magnet in the pin that hold it against the bar on the side of the weight stack , reduce the chance of it slip out during a exercise . this make a lot of sense , but the magnet be pretty weak . during some pretty basic exercise the magnet will come lose and lose they hold . now do not get freak out -- it be not like the pin fly out and it be scary to work out -lrb- there be a elastic band act as a backup safety also -rrb- . I be talk like millimeter here ; I can see that the pin have move just enough where you can tell the magnet be not hold . rather than a whole bunch of cheap magnet within the pin , two small high-quality earth magnet would give a better hold while still be pretty easy to remove . 2 . the weight selection process can be a bit finicky on carpet or non-flat surface . because there may be a bit of shift in the weight stack on carpet , sometimes it be tricky to stick the weight pin in correctly . I recommend leave these weight on a hard surface while in use , or better yet get the sport tray\/stand to accompany they . 3 . the pin can be put in crooked across two different weight . if you be not pay attention -lrb- and you should be ! -rrb- , it be somewhat easy to put the pin in crooked so that it cross two weight . you will probably notice this right away when you go to pick up the weight , and it be not that big of deal since the pin still hold onto the heavier weight , but possibly re-engineer the pin shape or something could help prevent this entirely . \*\*\*\* POWERBLOCK VS. the competition \*\*\*\* okay , now here be the part where you assume I work for Powerblock . let I say that this set of dumbbell -lrb- and the Powerblock line in general -rrb- be a much better choice than the selecttech -lrb- st -rrb- . while compare these 24-pounder to the 52 pound SelectTech 's be not really fair simply for weight comparison reason , I want to point out why I think this line be vastly superior : 1 . the bowflex selecttech 552 dumbbell and by the way , they be WIDE -- about 16 '' each . imagine do curl with 5 pound per hand and need thirty two inch across to do it -- make for a uncomfortable curl , especially for narrower people . the Powerblocks -lrb- PBs -rrb- , on the other hand , be narrower and more compact the less weight you add . all the stuff you do not need be leave on the floor , not in you hand . 2 . the st require you to turn two dial to appropriate number on each dumbbell . there be 15 different weight setting on the st , so what if you next weight be on the opposite side of the dial ? that be right , it will require eight click per SIDE of EACH DUMBBELL to pick up the new weight . that mean it take between 4 -lrb- minimum -rrb- and 32 -lrb- maximum -rrb- click of the dial to change weight each time . and you can not just flick the dial , either . the PBs , on the other hand , require two move no matter what weight you be select : pull the pin out , put the pin in . period . 3 . the st , while far `` cooler '' look , have a lot of plastic on they . pick a set up at you local Sports Authority and see if you can tell how the weigh selector mechanism work . then , consider how durable -lrb- and potentially unsafe -rrb- you think you $ 400 weight would be if you drop they . the pb be mostly metal , with the inner handle be the only thing that contain plastic , and it be not cheapo plastic either . if you drop they , I be guess they would hold up fine , although I would not recommend it . 4 . with the st you have to have the base to set the handle back into due to the design of the product . if you do not have a tray to hold all the weight that be leave behind , it would be a nightmare to put the handle back together and try and switch to another weight . in fact , I would like to see someone try = -rrb- the pb be self-contained , so they work fine without the stand . the weight that you do not pick up stay in a compact stack that will not move . \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* conclusion and summary \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* aside from those gripe , I really enjoy these Powerblocks . in fact , I grow out of they and trade up to the Sport 9.0 model -lrb- which I will review separately -rrb- . if 24 pound per arm be enough for you routine , it be a absolute no-brainer to pick these guy up . note that Amazon have build in the shipping cost to the price of these dumbbell . -lrb- edit 5\/25\/2012 : I notice today that Amazon be no longer include the shipping price in the cost . for 150 ship free , these be a great deal ! -rrb- pro + much more compact than the competition + quick weight change to ANY weight + well built\/durable + great price on the lower weight set -lrb- if 24 be all you need -rrb- con - magnet in pin could be stronger - do not work quite as well on carpet - possible to put the pin in crooked if you be not pay attention 225 Dumbbell POS 4 safety be the key when purchase gym equipment . never consider price over safety . 1 . the quality be great . paint steel look amazing , and with the cool decal , look professional . 2 . it have a smaller footprint to take less romm in a personal gym . 3 . it hold we 5-50 pound dumbbell set , minus the 5 and 10 pound set very well . 4 . build time be 40 minute . the cross bar get bolt down to the main frame . nice corrosion treat hardware with locknut . 5 . price be stunning consider the other unit available . I recommend this for the beginner . 470 Dumbbell NEG 2 well ... I mess up on order this , it be now sit in a basket that I probably will not touch again . it be not easy ... and of course all of the ad make it look like it be . I would just rather use hand weight . I would not buy it again ! 763 Dumbbell POS 4 this be item be awesome will highly recommend purchase the bowflex selecttech 552 dumbbell with the stand . the stand be the key component you do not have to bend to pick up the weight its located at the proper height , make it very convenient to do you rep and ease to change the weight . the downside be that the weight do slip sometime would recommend jingle the dumbbell before remove from cradle to insure the proper weight be lock to the dumbbell and not fall on you foot or toe -lrb- that would hurt pretty bad -rrb- . one other thing the stand be miss label so double check with diagram before tighten nut and bolt of the initial stand . 137 Dumbbell POS 5 the dumbell rack arrive in a timely fashion . it be easy to assemble . it be compact enough to fit into a area of the basement workout area without take over excess workout space . the design allow you to get the weight off the lower rack with ease . it fit a wide range of weight type which we have acquire over the year . all but my teeny 1,2,3 lb weight fit on . 670 Dumbbell POS 5 I buy the Shake Weight a week ago and already I be notice result ! I have more definition in my biceps . the 6 minute work out be really quick but I feel like I be get a way better arm workout than I would at the gym . I will continue to use this product ! 299 Dumbbell NEU 3 let 's get something clear right away -- the Shake Weight do NOT come close to replace weight-lifting or other more intense resistance exercise . those that do light calisthenics or nothing at all will be please with the Shake Weight . it give a quick `` pump '' to you arm and provide some `` toning '' to the muscle in a very short period of time . the benefit be short-lived and very limited . even do the Shake Weight routine several time a day will not produce much muscle gain . you would be much better off do a weight resistance program that break down muscle tissue and repair it larger and stronger over time . if you be sedentary and want to do a very basic , easy exercise that take little time , the Shake Weight might be right for you . just be aware of its limitation and be realistic about the result you 'll get . 925 Dumbbell NEG 2 I normally read review first before purchase a item but figure I be pretty safe with some light-weight dumbbell . I wish I would have read the review because now I have only 1 dumbbell in 3 different weight - thanks Amazon ! maybe just a note to buyer that the purchase be NOT for a set - which be normally how light weighted dumbbell be offer . now I be stick with purchase the mate which now make the item not such a good buy after all , it would cost too much for return shipping - ugghh ! 467 Dumbbell POS 5 Whenever I be use this beauty -lrb- and it be often -rrb- , my wife usually give I a exasperated look , roll she eye , and mumble something I can never understand , but I suspect that it have more to do with the fact that I be work in my home office , whilst ` shake-weight-ser-siz-ing ' , than anything else . I say , `` its multitasking - get over it '' ! as a video editor in the man 's adult film industry , I do not get a lot of free time to hit the gym -lrb- not that they even have these beauty there anyway -rrb- - so , it be important for I to make the most of my waking hour , and fit some sort of physical activity in at some point -lrb- bmus 43 - yike , I know -rrb- . since I start my daily , high-rep , high-intensity , bootcamp style , 60 minute , shake weight workout regimen -lrb- just over 6 month ago -rrb- , I have see obvious and wonderful result . I have never churn butter or plunge a toilet so well ! exceed my expectation ! recommend ! 922 Dumbbell POS 5 if you be look for adjustable dumbbell then you know the price vary but hover around $ 300 for a set . the powerblock be the best . I just start p90x 2 week ago and i have to change weight so quickly these thing be awesome ... in\/n\/out , 5 seconds later i be ready to go with a new weight and talk about space-saver ; OMG these thing take up no room at all . they be pricey but you will not regret you purchase unless you leave they sit around to get dusty : -rrb- 153 Dumbbell NEU 3 I guess they serve the purpose , but do not be a fool get something of better quality . the bar come in two piece . . so retard , 479 Dumbbell NEG 2 I get it , use it , do not really work . it make sense when I see the infomercial , but when I get it , I realize that no one can ever get `` buff '' use it . 56 Dumbbell POS 5 Ok , I use to bike , run a little and dream about swimming . that be before get married and the kid . well , I have hit the age where they tell you you will lose 1 pound of muscle per year . thanks for all that . for I to work my upper body , I have push up bar , a assortment of 40 pound weight , some stretch cable - all of which I have not use for more than 3 year . I need a quick workout to maintain tone . I just open the package 10 minute ago and do the 3 exercise for about five minute . holy Batman ! it work . maybe , it be because I use to work out a little when I be younger -lrb- muscle memory -rrb- . but the blood be back in those muscle , my pec , delt , lat , biceps and forearm . it be true that balanced workout work both side of the muscle . I could never do that with conventional weight or by do pushup . for a busy person - this be a quick way to maintain tone . highly recommend ! -lrb- note : not that I think only my opinion matter , but a lot of review seem to be sabotage review or fake complaint . this product would not have make it to market if it do not work , no matter how `` as see on tv . '' -rrb- thanks Amazon , you make it so easy to buy . I want to work for Amazon . 59 Dumbbell POS 5 highly recommend buy this rack to safely store you weight . pick they up from this base , save the chance of pull out you back each time you restack , plus help to take care of the system , which can break if mishandle . very solid frame , and tasteful design . 284 Dumbbell POS 4 I like these dumbbell a lot , in fact , I believe they be the best and safest adjustable dumbbell on the market . however , they be not without some drawback and risk . for example , it be very important that the pin assembly in place through the hole straight and not upside down . if you do not check this , it be possible a plate can break loose . there be a backup elastic strap that will protect you in most exercise , but not all . overall , these dumbbell be comfortable and more compact than the round type for a give weight range across the same number of increment . they be not awkward to lift , but as you go to larger set , it become difficult to get a full range of motion for some exercise such as upright row because of they length . the smallest set of this type be in my opinion the best and most convenient . if you go beyond this range , you can add additional dummbell as you need they or get a upgrade kit . however , I like these less as they get bigger . in general , I wholeheartedly recommend this product and the stand that come with it . if you make pin adjustment on the floor , especially on carpet , it be more likely you will make a error in pin placement that could cause a injury . if you circuit train with very little rest between set , these be a must have and I also find they be great for use on a stability ball to simultaneously hit the core muscle . 889 Dumbbell POS 5 I be a woman so I buy the shake weight for woman but as I use it more and more , I realize eventually I will want the heavier man 's model . do not get the man 's 5 lb shake weight unless you know you can handle it ! the 2 lb woman 's model be great ! I can see the difference already ! 736 Dumbbell POS 5 the assembly be easy - take around 20 min . to tighten 12 bolt . the frame be very solid and the paint job be good . 697 Dumbbell NEG 1 I guess I be the idiot . none of the ad say it be power so why do I assume it be ? it be a dumb bell you shake . and a little awkward to hold on top of that . it weigh a little less than 6 lb . a pair of 3 lb dumbell would be better for a lot less . 904 Dumbbell POS 5 this be now week six for I . I can not believe my eye . I use it everyday . I can only do one minute behind my head for my triceps because it burn so much . I have increase from one minute to three minute in front for my biceps . I try this because $ 15 be nothing after ready that many people love it . I think if you be a gym rat , this be not for you , however , many woman have really poor arm strength and this be a wonderful start . my arm be tone and the fat be disappear . I have lose one inch on each arm because I measure it before I start use it . once this become too easy , I plan on buy the man 's Shake Weight . 549 Dumbbell POS 4 the stand do what it be make for . I like it because I can move the dumbbell easily to my designate workout area and then back to the corner of the room when I be finish . it be really more of a convenience and not a necessity to have . the only thing I do not like be that the stand I get be somewhat uneven on the bottom . that be probably why they give you adjustable wheel and peg because the company must have be aware that the quality vary and they can not make the piece perfectly even . 814 Dumbbell POS 4 it take alittle practice to feel like you be do it right , but it work , and that be the main thing . 835 Dumbbell POS 5 I buy these dumbbell as a secondary set to the 5-50 lb . powerblock I buy only a few week before . I like the first product so much that I buy the lighter set so my husband and I can lift together . these be extremely easy to use and surprisingly compact . I go to the fitness store and look at these and the Selecttechs side by side and be astonish by the length of the Selecttechs . in my opinion , that product would not work for woman due to how long the bar be to accommodate all the weight . though this system be a little oddly shaped -lrb- blocky -rrb- it be much more compact and thus easier to manipulate . true , it take a little time to find a comfortable grip for a few exercise -lrb- such as thing behind the head -rrb- but once you know what work for you the system make lift easy . 513 Dumbbell POS 5 I love have a full set of freeweight in the size of one pair ! just gotta be careful when you be switch weight because if you have the clip on a diagonal it get dangerous and awkard . overall it be great !! 401 Dumbbell NEG 2 so far many of the review have be from people who have own the system for personal use . I do not dispute that the system be well suit for that . however for the past year I have see they appear more frequently in hotel gym . the benefit to the hotel of course be that it take up very little space . the problem however be that it just do not hold up well under heavy use . at every hotel where I have find this in use , all of they be damage and therefore unusable beyond a certain weight level . the problem seem to be that the lock key bend . I suspect this be a result of someone incorrectly insert the key and force it through , cause it to warp . once the damage be do , there be no way to correct it short of take it to the machine shop and bend it back into shape or buy a new set of key . so if you be someone who be put in the position of choose something to put in you hotel 's gym , for you customer 's sake , DO NOT choose this device . either get traditional free weight -lrb- no move part therefore nothing to break -rrb- . or get something like a iron master . 436 Dumbbell POS 5 I do not know how we move we Bowflex SelectTech weight without this stand . the wheel lock so it be solid when you do not want it to move . 330 Dumbbell POS 5 the weight come quickly and we be better than I could have expect . I use they everyday and have see no wear or issue with they what so ever . the stand look really flimsy when I first take it out but it be small and lightweight but defiantly do the trick . altogether it be the perfect set for my home workout . 113 Dumbbell POS 5 the barbell be perfectly fine , the gray be a nice color , and shipping be prompt -lrb- with Amazon -rrb- . my only issue be that I have search for a hand weight SET , and this be only one weight . for $ 16 , I feel that it be a little pricey and I obviously have to buy another to complete the set . 313 Dumbbell NEG 1 I purchase the above Shake Weight after finally find it for a really good price . I be excite to take it home and use it to firm my arm . I do the exercise and follow the program from the include dvd for the appropriate amount of time . eventually , I notice nothing be happen !! my arm be tire , but no increase muscle tone or definition . complete Waste of money and time ! do not buy it ... you better off use normal 3-10 pound weight and do simple arm exercise . -lrb- the reviewer be compensate for post this review . however , the opinion state in the review be that of the reviewer and the reviewer alone . further , the reviewer independently select this product to review and have no affiliation with the product maker\/distributor , Amazon or the review requester . -rrb- 140 Dumbbell NEG 2 I do not have space for a lot of exercise equipment but I be interested in strength training and lifting weight . my brother have a shake weight and love it so I decide to get one too . after give it a chance , I have come to the conclusion it be just not for I . I can not seem to get it to work as seemlessly as they do on the dvd workout . plus it be only two and a half pound so it do not do much when I be use to use five pound weight . I suppose it be responsible for somewhat tone my arm but I prefer regular weight . it be a nice idea in theory , but hard to use in real life . 419 Dumbbell POS 5 this product be well make , easy to assemble -lrb- even for a chick -rrb- and be very sturdy . 248 Dumbbell NEG 1 this product be too light to really be of much use as far as result be concern . guess if you do no physical activity it might make a difference . 920 Dumbbell POS 5 these weight be as good as all the review . Easy to adjust and seem to be very sturdy . you just have to make sure they be sit on a hard surface or the pin will not want to slide back in properly . 102 Dumbbell NEU 3 I just buy the Shake Weight at Wal-Mart for -lrb- ... -rrb- in they as see on tv section to try it out . so far 9 out of 10 as see on tv item that I have buy have a be a joke . -lrb- Shoes under be the only one I keep and even then I almost do not because it be so flimsy . -rrb- I like to try out the product to see if it work and because it be Wal-Mart I have no problem return it . I do not know how I be go to do that with the Shake Weight because as far as I can see there be no way to test to see if it actually work . how long do it take to make my arm look better ? -lrb- I think this be why there be virtually no review as yet , people can not tell if it be work and they get tire of it before it be obvious that it be or be not work . -rrb- but here 's what I have get so far : `` Feel the burn '' : it be true that you biceps do start to `` burn '' while you be use this product but I think that be from have they unnaturally clench for 6 minute straight while you shake yourself to death . -lrb- yes , this be how the product work , you bicep muscle clench up and stay that way while you be do this exercise . -rrb- I be always teach to do `` rep '' during strength training which allow the muscle to tense and rest every few seconds while you work it use resistance -lrb- i.e weight -rrb- . `` it be a weight '' : no , not really . it have a little bit of weight to it but there do not seem to be any resistance to this tool and it seem that 6 minute of continuously have you tensed muscle shake would just hurt you -lrb- hence the `` burn . '' -rrb- not to mention that even if the product do work there be no way to add more weight to it and you muscle would quickly outgrow it . then it be obsolete . `` shake '' : when do shake fat to shrink it come back in style ? remember those old contraption fat man in sweat shirt would be strap into and it would shake they belly in the hope that it would make they smaller ? there be a reason you do not see those anymore . they do not work and they be dangerous . `` Dynamic Inertia '' : go ahead , Google it . you will not find it anywhere on the web unless it be in connection to the shake weight . when do a product get to coin new physics terminology ? and exactly what do it mean ? `` it look silly and kinda pervert '' : the product do not claim this but almost everyone else do . the product do look like a elegant massage toy and face it , you do look and feel silly shake you arm fat everywhere . -lrb- hey , if you do not have arm fat then you would not be use it . -rrb- and pervert , well , there be even a spoof video on YouTube that be so r-rated that I refuse to discuss it further here . other review on the web : there be like 4 and I think they be all write by the people who make -lrb- or sell -rrb- the product . they have almost nothing negative to say about the Shake weight and one woman even claim it make she boob bigger . yeah right . and finally , the price : -lrb- this be maybe the only good thing about this item . -rrb- it seem as if the manufacturer can not agree on how much this thing should cost . they infomercial list it at a bargain at 19.99 plus shipping and handling -lrb- which I think be like another 7 or 8 buck -rrb- and Wal-Mart have it simply for the -lrb- ... -rrb- . so what be up with they sell it on Amazon for almost double the price ? well , it turn out that the the manufacturer be not the one sell the item . jwwbooks4 be the company sell it through Amazon and I guess they be hope to make a big profit . it be a little shady in my opinion . final Verdict : I guess I be go to see if actually work . hey , I have get 90 day through Wal-Mart , but I be not go to hold my breath for result . if you do decide to try it , go to Wal-Mart and save yourself the shipping and the handle through the infomercial , or the extra 17 dollar they be charge through Amazon . hey , you do have the option to save yourself the headache altogether and do not bother to buy it at all . you can get a decent set of weight for about the same price . 778 Dumbbell NEU 3 it be okay . it be what I order , although I be not sure it produce the remarkable result as advertise . arrive timely . 886 Dumbbell POS 5 I work out at home use dumbell and a number of bodyweight exercise . my dumbbell collection have grow cumbersome and messy , so I look around for a way to organize these dumbell in my room , and this rack be perfect . I do look at a number of rack both online and in rl , but the majority be way over my budget , have crippling shipping charge or be too limit in term of they capacity to space ratio . I be just about ready to fabricate my own when I find this on Amazon . after read the review and crunch the number , I decide to give this a shot . I be happy to report this have completely solve my dumbbell storage problem . \*\*\* this rack arrive a couple of day before anticipate ; with the use of a single crescent wrench , I put it together without assistance in the space of a hour or so . well within 2 hour of open the box , it be in place and hold weight . it be solidly make of heavy gauge steel and quality weld cover in a tough tactile coating material . the construction method be of simple carriage bolt and nylon insert locknut assembly . it ship with rubber covering for the foot and all orifice . \*\*\* the actual dimension of this rack be 36.75 '' x 24 '' x 32 '' -lrb- W x d x h -rrb- . add at least a foot to the height for the minimum workable usage space -lrb- for lift the weight in and out -rrb- . I have fill it be available space with set of 10-50 # dumbbell in 5 # increment . for the past month , it have hold 540 # and remain absolutely rock solid . from the feel of the thing , it could hold easily twice this weight without issue . \*\*\* Highly recommend for personal use or even tight boutique space . 979 Dumbbell POS 5 I use these in my indoor gym and the rubber coating protect my hardwood floor from scratch . I have the cap barbell weight on my barbell 46 lb . bar and they resist scratch on my floor as well . 945 Dumbbell POS 5 this item be just what I be look for . its simply make and easy to use . Great for quick one handed workout . 115 Dumbbell POS 5 I be so sorry to hear that some people be hurt themselves with this item . I have have no problem at all with it and I be very happy with it . I be so bad about do thing consistently and almost do not get this just because I figure it would end up sit around gather dust remind I of what I should be do to get in better shape before it be all down to my ankle . but I have no problem find the time to work out with this . who do not have 6 minute ? it be definitely a work out and I can feel it afterward but not in a bad way . I do not do the behind the head thing for the first several day - perhaps a week or more of use it daily - until I feel more confident with the item itself and comfortable with how it work and shift and all that . then I do not push it because you can feel that you be work on area that usually do not get much attention . if you do it right and as someone else mention `` listen to you body '' you can actually work out stress kink in you neck . I stretch with it in my hand first and I do long slower movement with it at first too to sort of loosen up . just like before any exercise - you should get you muscle warm up first . you should never just jump right in and do vigorous exercise or any exercise you have never do before without test the water first anyway . only you know you body and what it be strength and weakness be . I tend to have problem in my right arm and hand so I try and build up the strength in that arm by do shorter work out with it but more often . since I be horribly right handed - my right hand take all the abuse and all the activity so my left arm be worthless too but in a different way - I work that one out for longer stretch though not as many time during a workout as the right . I end up do they both about the same I just spread out the right one more so I do not aggravate exist problem there and hopefully strengthen it so that the muscle will be stronger and less susceptible to minor tweak and twinge . my arm be get icky flabby even though I be relatively active just because I be not a spring chicken anymore -lrb- though I 'll deny it if you say it out loud to my face -rrb- and they be look - oh i do not know - weird ... lol - but they look so much better now . I swear by this product . just do not go crazy with it right away and do not try and do what the fitness freak do unless you be already one . do what you know you can do and then just push the envelope at you pace a little more everyday . I increase my rep by at least 5 or 10 every work out . now I extend the length of the whole work out itself . I have even start use it to work different area that make my back feel great . oh and this be probably obvious yet it never hurt to mention this - you should really make sure you always drink plenty of water and especially after a work out . that help you muscle too - a lot !!! it really can not be overstate . -lrb- no - I do not work for any organization affiliate or associate with this product -rrb- . 968 Dumbbell POS 5 this have to be one of the best investment I have make . I use to buy a specific weight dumbbell think that I would use it for a while before increase the weight . when I start p90x , I realize that I need multiple weight and I need to be able to change the weight fast to keep up with the video . this be where the PowerBlock weight shine . the transition between the weight be flawless -lrb- with PowerBlock Sport Tray -rrb- . I be hesitant to spend so much money on dumbbell , but I can not imagine have multiple set of weight all over my house that would probably cost much more . I have to mention that the magnet design in my opinion be superior to the Bowflex SelecTech dumbbell for a couple of reason . as mention before by other review , the SelecTech be a little on the bulky side and create awkward movement in you workout because you 'll constantly be try to avoid contact with the dumbbell . it be kind of hard to explain , but the Bowflex dumbbell extend wider with add weight . my friend have the SelectTech and he always have to wear tight clothing so the gated part of the dumbbell be not catch in he shirt . another problem be that the weight selection dial break when all my friend do be drop the dumbbell inch from the ground . I think the quality would be a little better than that . it take he forever to get a replacement . this be the main reason why I look for a alternative . I never have any such problem with my PowerBlocks and it only take I a couple of try to memorize the color\/weight indicator . the weight always seem secure and I can do multiple workout in less time with a each switch of my select weight . I recommend this product for anyone who utility multiple weight do workout -lrb- which be pretty much everyone -rrb- . you will not regret the investment . 229 Dumbbell POS 5 I do not know why other don ; t like it may be they be seriously body builder . . but for young adult who only want to be physically fit this be good start . also you can use this for warm up before you start dumbbell . if you be busy at work and have no time you can use this even 3 minute only . 777 Dumbbell NEU 3 this dumbbell rack be not bad for a `` make in China '' product . it go together in minute and be pretty sturdy , even with all my dumbbell -lrb- 5 pair , 10-30lb -rrb- on it . the hard plastic ` foot ' take some wiggle to get on , I have to tap they on with a soft mallet . the paint finish be pretty good -lrb- a textured dark gray -rrb- , but as with most thing make in China , I wonder if the paint contain lead or some other noxious ingredient . the item be packed pretty well , everything be wrap in a thin padding material and the bolt , nut and washer -lrb- shocker , washer be include ! -rrb- be shrunk-wrapped to a piece of cardboard . the include instruction be clear and straightforward , but honestly , if you need instruction to assemble this product , you need to go back to school ; -rrb- I would recommend this product . 151 Dumbbell POS 5 my yorkie be very picky about she treat but she love these . they keep she busy chew which be a nice break from the whining ! anybody who have ever own a yorkie know how much attention they will demand from you ... these treat give she something to do when I need to get thing do . love they ! 286 Dumbbell NEG 1 when I receive the apex rack , it have obviously be use . everything be out of the packaging , and be rewrapped lazily and quickly . all of the bolt and washer be loose in the box , and some be suprisingly miss . the rack be scratch and dent , probably since it be use previously . I buy this as a new item , but it be not even close . very disappointing . 712 Dumbbell NEU 3 from what I can tell this stand be a solid piece of equipment . my only problem be I can not put it together . nautilus send you these screw which they apparently expect you to be able to tighten with a hex screw . one a piece of equipment like this that you really want to make sure the screw be tight - it be impossible to get these thing on . I have hurt my hand several time try to tighten these thing . as it be now - the stand wobble back and forth . you would think they would know this be a BIG problem and would use REGULAR bolt or screw !! until I receive some new screw from Bowflex - I can not and would not recommend anyone buy this product . oh yes - like everyone else have say - the instruction manuel be AWFUL !!! 371 Dumbbell POS 4 just as advertise ... do the job . Great for hex dumbbell 20 lb . & up . the end on smaller dumbbell be not tall enough to rest in the cradle , so they just rest on the handle instead . this make it easy to smash a finger-if you be not careful-when put they on the stand . 226 Dumbbell POS 5 great tasting , all 3 dog love em , and easy for the older dog to eat too . 10 Dumbbell POS 5 it say what it say and do work i only get this the 5th and and only be work with for a short time and already can feel the burn from work out and work with these few day the only down fall to this be that it only work you arm so far from what i have see on the cd that come with it i be more want to work on my belly and ab but if you want a good working and sweat alot from the work and burn then this be the thing for you . . although i give it a 5 it be not a bad workout weight . 200 Dumbbell POS 5 this be a great price for this dumbbell set and no shipping charge . I go to a couple of sport store and they price be outrageous . they be all ask about $ 2.00 + a pound per dumbbell , ouch . the shipment come quickly in 4 or 5 business day . well worth the wait . the stand be not the greatest but it work just fine if you be not go to be move it about . at the store the stand be a extra $ 20.00 or more . the dumbbell fit nicely in you hand and do not slip if you hand sweat . I would highly recommend buy this set . 869 Dumbbell POS 5 three word describe what I think about this product . love , love , love . I love how easy it be to put together , I love how sturdy it be and I love the price . I be able to put it together in very little time . my one complaint be the plastic and cardboard the nut and bolt come in open up before it arrive to my home . I be miss one washer , so the manufacturer could improve there , although I really like the picture on the cardboard , do not even need instruction . I have 8 set of weight on it now , start at 5 pound and increase in 5 pound increment . I be a little nervous on how much it would hold , due to how inexpensive it be . I have no need to worry , it work great and look wonderful in my home gym . I highly recommend . 891 Dumbbell POS 5 these PowerBlock dumbbell be great . they be compact and switch the amount of weight be really quick and easy . we also have the Bowflex adjustable dumbbell , but compare to the PowerBlocks they be large and cumbersome . I wish I have get the PowerBlocks to begin with ! the only thing that could have make this product better be if it come with the holder and\/or stand . I do not knock of any star for that , though , since it be clear from the product description . 767 Dumbbell NEG 2 this shake weight be power by ... you . I must have conveniently block it out of my brain while watch the infomercial . seriously think you turn it on and it shake ... and you use you muscle to hold it in place , thereby burn the fat . NOT SO . you shake this thing and geesus , I can barely make it to the 2 min mark . hit my face a couple of time . and then shake it from side to side - uh , that be IMPOSSIBLE . it be not that it take up so much energy I cant do it , but i cant even START to shake it from side to side -lrb- hold it like a steer wheel and shake leave to right -rrb- . I be 34b in chest , 5 ' 3 , 118lb and workout my arm 3-4x a week . I seroiusly can not see how a woman w \/ a bigger chest can manage this little shakeweight . I keep it for 3 day , it go back . do not waste you money ... weight be so much better ... this thing be so tiring by the time i even complete the 1st minute , im do . those woman on tv use the shake weight , must have have major practice doin it , causeit not even as close to be as ez as it look . 380 Dumbbell POS 4 this be a nice , sturdy rack . it hold most weight just fine . the only reason I do not give 5 star be some of my weight -lrb- the color one with foam type handle -rrb- will not fit . they be too small so I need to find a separate storage rack for those . 491 Dumbbell POS 5 I look for hour in all the wrong place . I think I need to go to the standard weight-lifting site to find a good dumbbell rack , but I be wrong . prior to this , the best price I find be $ 120 . I decide to look at Amazon for grin , and find what I be really look for . the product be solid , it ship fast , and it be simple to assemble . ignore the ciritial opinion ; they fix all the problem . the nut and bolt be all on a piece of cardboard with shrink-wrap plastic around it . do not waste you time look for a better deal -- this be it ! 585 Dumbbell POS 5 my fiance buy I this set for Xmas and I absolutely love they . I live in a 1 bedroom condo and I be run out of room in my living room for all my dumbbell . I can already see I save to get the next size up ... which I be sure I 'll be need before next year . I have very small hand and the grip on these be just perfect to grasp they . another thing I be worry about be place they on my shoulder ... they do not fit up there perfectly , but they do not fit up there uncomfortably either . another thing be they be not incredibly cumbersome . when you get out of 20 pounder , the dumbbell end become thick and big and hard for my little hand to grasp ... not a problem with my powerblock ... then end be always easy to grasp and seem to stay the same size through the increment ... which be perfect for my extra small hand . I work out to Videos and have to pause the video in order to change the pin to a different weight , but it do not take I long to get use to change the pin into the correct increment and I be get faster with it all the time . I have be slowly give away my dumbbell because they just be not need anymore and I can not say enough about the powerblock ... can not wait to buy my next set . I be think though that a stand would make change increment easier ... but for now ... I 'll make do . 849 Dumbbell NEG 1 I be surprise to see this item have positive review . I be happy that it apparently do work for some people . however , in my opinion , it be just another gimmick . shake you way to more muscular arm use something so light ? yes , you might feel something -lrb- and be careful that it be not pain due to injury that you be feel ! -rrb- but you can do this type of exercise use just about anything of the same weight -lrb- whether it be a water bottle or a can of soup , etc -rrb- . I do try this product and , personally , I recommend good old fashion push-up instead . specifically tricep push-up if you be aim to work on toning\/defining that `` under the arm '' area -lrb- below you biceps -rrb- . you have three different muscle in you tricep area -lrb- thus , the name , as `` tri '' mean `` three '' -rrb- . it be not logical to use a light weight dumbbell and `` shake '' you way to definition\/strength of all these muscle . nose crusher and dip be a few other exercise that be great for the triceps . this area can be a problem area for both man and woman but from my experience , more woman seem to be bother by it . dip would be perfect for woman who do not want to develop a more `` bulky '' appearance as you use you own body weight against you while nose crusher would be best for man as you can use the weight of you choice and keep increase it as you progress . -lrb- please note : dip be a common exercise , as be Nose Crushers , but Nose Crushers MIGHT be know by a different name by you personal trainer -rrb- . of course , tricep push-up be very effective for both sex . one of my main reason for be unhappy with this product be the very high risk of injury that can be cause from do these exercise . not just the chance of pull a muscle , but it also increase you chance of head , neck and shoulder injury -lrb- which take forever to recover from -rrb- . tricep push-up , dip & nose crusher be excellent exercise for the tricep muscle that do not have a high risk of injury to any of these area -lrb- with the exception of nose crusher - if you do not have a spotter and do drop the barbell on you nose , well , like the name of the exercise state , you nose will be crush ! -rrb- 132 Dumbbell POS 4 these barbell work just fine , they be very effective for tone the arm . forget the weird smell of the rubber , if you can get pass that it be all good . 949 Dumbbell POS 5 I have see great improvement in my arm from this shake weight . arm be no longer flabby . it be easy to use , I always exercise to the include dvd , only 6 minute . this work much better than equipment at the gym and traditional weight . 2 Dumbbell POS 4 it seem to work some muscle that be not work before . limited amount of way a person can use it . I find a few more way I could use it that be not on the dvd . I think the price be to high , price of $ 29.95 . it be price the same locally but by buy it from Amazon I save on the shipping and tax and it be deliver to my door . price for it will probably go down after a while . over all I like it . down side be it ` s limit use . 416 Dumbbell NEG 1 I will not argue that use this product will give you muscle fatigue\/burning when use . do that mean you be go to get rip result ? absolutely not . my friend stupidly go out and buy one of these . he use it religiously every day because it tire he out when he use it . I use it once and could not help but laugh at the product . the fact that people believe this product will give you rip muscle , as this product be market , be laughable . every review on here harp about the burn they feel after use this . guess what ? hold you arm straight out and move they in small circle for 60 seconds will give you more a burn than this ever will . go do that for 10 minute a day and tell I how `` rip '' you get do it . 739 Dumbbell NEG 2 I feel tire after use this for 6 minute and definitely feel pain in my arm but I never notice any difference . overall it seem pretty isolate in the muscle group that it work and it be extremely boring and be quickly put away and forget . 537 Dumbbell NEU 3 this a no frill product , the weight be pretty much as advertise . the problem with it be that a -rrb- there be no assembly instruction for the rack b -rrb- the component of the rack be not label -- I find out that the dowel be not interchangeable , mean each dowel , and its end , fit into a specific location . this be not mention anywhere since there be no assembly instruction . I read review prior to order the product and see highly conflicting view . some thought -lrb- more actually -rrb- that the rack be useless while other , a few , think that the rack be nice and convenient . keep these in mind , I decide to play around with the dowel when they do not seem to fit well and sure enough I figure thing out and be able to assemble the rack quite well . a lot of people will not bother to figure out how to assemble it properly . of course it be nothing special , in fact one can call it cheap , but it can be use . my suggestion be to enclose assembly instruction complete with dowel label . 645 Dumbbell NEU 3 I do not buy this from amazon . I have purchase it from bowflex 's web site on a father day special for $ 50.00 . just a warning , these be as heavy as one of the set of barbell i have buy . as I see many people post `` workout , before workout . '' it be nice , but not necessary and it be heavy . just my two cent . 908 Dumbbell POS 5 I have be go to my local masseuse for a while now and I always try to tip she well , but lately she have be a bit lazy and just have not be give I the best massage at all . I be give she this for she birthday -lrb- she say she be a leo -rrb- , in the hope that my next tuus na body rub session be more satisfying and she muscle more in shape when it count . 235 Dumbbell POS 4 I purchase these on sale at a local sport store . I be in love with the design and basic concept and i be in a hurry . but I buy the one that be only expandable to 50 pound assume I could get a expander kit to 90 pound . apparently the classic be not expandable . so I will return these and purchase the 90 pound version . 452 Dumbbell POS 5 okay , when you first look at these you get that feeling and ask question like , be they for real ? what be the deal with the squareness ? I ask those same question until I personally see and use these . all I have to say be these be the best adjustable dumbbell out there . yes , the Bowflex one be cool and everything , but personally they be not worth it . they be extremely long , almost double the length of the Powerblocks . for just 10 pound , its the same length even for 50 with the Selectechs . the powerblock be small and be very easy to use . I love how the pin be magnetic and the square shape show how sturdy they be and they be definetly sturdy . they may rattle a bit on some weight but do not be turn off . the weight will never fall off if you make sure you put the pin in the right weight . the main reason I buy these be for p90x and they go together perfectly . do not just go off the negative review until you actually see and use these weight personally . I even get to try out the Bowflex one but the length be a huge turn off for I and I hear they break easily and be a bitch to fix . so , if you be a first time adjustable dumbbell buyer like myself , I stronly recommend the Powerblocks so go down to you local sport goods store and take a look at these . 771 Dumbbell NEG 1 I buy this dumbbell under the immpression that it be sell as a pair . not the case , I only receive one dumbbell . also , the condition be heavily use . the neoprene be rip in several place . the website list the condition as used-like new . I have never review any of the product I have boughten on amazon before . but this be such a rip-off I feel I need to warn other who may be consider this dumbbell . 344 Dumbbell POS 5 I also buy these for the Chalene Extreme work out which require many weight change , and they work fantastically . change the weight take some get use to , but I be get use to it and be able to make the change quickly enough to keep up with the workout video . I do a lot of research on adjustable weight , read many customer review , and visit several sport goods store to `` touch '' the adjustable weight in stock , and decide the powerblock be the way to go . I be a little hesitant as they be not returnable , and they look funny , but I be very pleased with the product . as soon as I take they out of the box , it be obvious to I that they be a quality product , and a great value in comparison to the price of all the other adjustable dumbbell set out there . I highly recommend powerblock to anyone in the market for a ajustable dumbbell weight set . 422 Dumbbell POS 4 I get this from a groupon deal . at first I do some research online and like many other , I think it look ... well ... dirty . but I get it anyways . the first time use it , it as my only workout of the day . get a little burn here and there , not too tiring . but a couple of day later , I use it after a 2 mile run , I could really feel the difference . I really feel the burn in my arm and shoulder . however , it be only a good tool . if you want to look buff like the guy in the infomercial from use shake weight , unlikely . to gain muscle mass , you need wide range of body movement with heaier weight . Shake weight be good for burn off the energy that be leave in you arm . but if use with weight training , cardio , and good diet , you will feel the difference . 415 Dumbbell POS 5 I have be look for a rack to organize we small workout area but could never find something that I think be build well for less than $ 100 until I find the apex rack . this rack exceed my expectation for quality , construction and ease of assembly . and Amazon continue to amaze I with they great service ... I receive the rack in two day and shipping be free . what a deal ! 363 Dumbbell NEU 3 Dumbell bar arrive bent on the edge , this make it impossible for the clip to secure the weight . the large bar be great , weight be well balanced . if I have to pick between the the weight set with dumbell and the set without dumbell . I would definitely buy the one without dumbell . 810 Dumbbell POS 5 wonderful weight ! exactly what I be look for ! Perfect for P90X and can be change in seconds !! love em ! also love the padding and grip . 144 Dumbbell POS 5 very sturdy rack . hold up my dumbbell set with ease . Grey gloss finish bring out the professional gym look . it be a bonus that it be 3-tier . Higly recommend it . 207 Dumbbell POS 5 I order my powerblock weight because I need more option and fewer weight lie around . I love these weight . very easy to use . I have be use they in my workout several time a week and no problem encounter . my boyfriend even start use they ! I highly recommend this item . 365 Dumbbell NEU 3 these weight be heavy , and I can repeatedly pick they up and put they down . that be about what I be look for . they cost less than a month 's due for the YMCA for my wife and myself . since we have a new baby , I want somethign to keep I go inbetween visit to the Y. so I be totally stoke that I could get something heavy to pick up deliver to my house for a totally reasonable price . I get exactly what I pay for and do not regret it . these be not ... oh ... qulity weight . the plastic smell funny and remind I of a toy that you would buy at the drugstore . the bar have a feel like the metal in the tool that you can buy at Harbor Freight ... yeah , it be metal , but some kind of weird , cheap ore that must only be avialable in China . the weight spin on the bar no matter what I do . but yeah , I be totally happy with my cheap , junky weight set , if that make any sense . Perfect for what I want , and I be glad it be offer . Mine get here in great shape , so I guess my UPS man be just a beefcake . 255 Dumbbell POS 5 very well design and make . weld side support . simple assembly . well organize fastener . support whatever you can put on it . i have 5-50 # and it be solid as a rock . you need a dumbbell support system , you will not find better ! 149 Dumbbell POS 4 this be perfect for what I need it for . so far I love they . they be just the right weight and not too much for I to handle . I look forward to use they often . 578 Dumbbell POS 5 I be skeptical at first , like everyone else . if you use it for 10 minute a day or even less than that , it definitely tone you arm . after read the review , I still be not sure about purchase it because I have be athletic all my life . its great for tone and it sit right next to my ab ball and medicine ball wait to be use each day . Easy to use . the dvd include be simple and lack the corniness of typical workout video . definitely surprise . try it . what be the worst that could happen ?! 820 Dumbbell NEU 3 if you be look at get rip , then this be not the product for you . however , if you be look to tone-up , the shake weight be perfect . 173 Dumbbell NEG 1 what a nightmare when I open the box ! the bolt , washer and nut be scatter all over the box . as expect , most of the piece be miss . I be also not able to find any square end Cap . the left and right beam be also scratch and the base of the beam be dent . I be not even sure if I be able to fit in the base end cap . these be just some of the few thing I have notice upon quick inspection . not sure what else be miss or wrong with the rack . I be return the item . what a waste of my time . 529 Dumbbell POS 5 it be a little tricky learning to use the set - -lrb- adjust the weight choice -rrb- , but once I learn the trick to it , it be perfect for my curcuit training which require quick change in weight . the set look neat , and be very compact . would recommend it to anyone who need a dumbell set that max out at 25 lb .
