Quality


Excellent product just what i needed good construction


These are well made, very sturdy and easy to grip because of the textured center.


After 3 days still it emit rubber smell.


The rubber has an odor but it disappears after a week or so.

Price


Works great and was actually cheaper than a used pair from play it again sports.


Still drives me crazy that anyone charges more than $1/lb on weights, but hey, capitalism.


Good product for the value however lol it does not come in as a pair as i thought when i ordered.

Shipping


I always feel a little guilty whenever i order a heavier size cause i know the amazon delivery driver is gonna have to deal with it.


Overall good, just took a long time to arrive

Packaging/appearance


Very well package, early delivery, exceeds my expectations!


Looks clean and nice to have matching sets!


The only downside was that when i first opened the package, there was a pretty strong rubber smell and the dumbbell felt a bit greasy.

Competitiveness


They’re comparable to the much more expensive brands and work just as well.


Will continue to buy the brand as higher weights are needed.
