POWERBLOCK Sport 5.0, 2.5kg – 22.5kg Pair

Bought these based on the five star reviews and I can say that they live up to expectations. What amounts to tens sets of dumbbells that take up a little more space than two shoe boxes is perfect when space is limited. Quick to change weights when swapping between muscle groups and needing to vary load. The shaped handle is comfortable and provides a good surface to grip, no chance of the dumbbell slipping or twisting even when hands are sweaty. Non abrasive too so no need for gloves. As others have commented they are a little noisy but not excessively so, just a gently clanking as the plates touch. The weight increments are gradual i.e 5 lbs per hand. The underside of the dumbbells have two 'handles' which are comfortable when using both arm exercises e.g. goblin squats. They appear well made and built to last. The selection mechanism is straight forward but a little care is needed to check that the pins are aligned on the same setting. No internal components to wear out or break. Very pleased with them.

Pleased with these, a simple but effective mechanism for adjusting the weight. The weight feels well held once the pin is fully inserted and I've not had any worries about part of it falling on me even with overhead exercises. I considered the other version of adjustable dumbbells for which the weight is adjusted by turning a dial at either end - but opted for these as it appears there is less to go wrong with this mechanism in the future. They're not cheap so I'm hoping they will be durable. A few minor negatives - the pin can be fiddly to insert unless the plates are lined up properly. Also the label on the dumbbells states that the handle weighs 5 lbs. It felt a bit light for that - and at least on my kitchen scales it weighs exactly 4 lbs... All the other stated weights appear correct however, within about 500 grams.

I ordered these weights on the basis of ease of use, their compact design and great reviews. I have not been disappointed. They do exactly what's on the tin. They fit nicely into a corner, can be changed quickly and in the hand they feel great. I went for these with some concern they wouldn't be enough weight but at the grand old age of 44 the weight is fine. I don't want to look like Arnie and if I want to work harder, I work smarter with the same weight and I saw the difference in a matter of two weeks. Some mention of the noise when working with them. Unless you live in a monastery it really isn't an issue, no more noise in fact less than a set of collared weights. If you need a set of weights for general fitness and a bit of muscle but don't want to look like a bag of walnuts, get these they won't disappoint.

Love these! Does exactly what it says on the tin. Great way to have a full set of DBs in a small, small space. Very quick and easy to change weights. For my home I might have bought the Sports 9.0 so I could go up in weight further - but these are perfect to leave at my dad's as a mini-gym for when I am visiting. Very happy customer.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! These are simply fantastic! Up to 50lb each dumbbell and only takes the space of one pair BRILLIANT! Great to use. I watched the reviews on You Tube before getting these. They do make heavier ones but for pumping out the reps these are great. SO glad I got the stand too.

These are very smooth to use, and the ingenious locking mechanism means it's not going to break like other multi weight dumbbells I've had. Very easy to change and nicely colour coded.

Fantastic product arrived earlier than the stated date seller sent email updates to this effect. The weights don't take up much space, I hope to enjoy the versatility of these weights for years to come.

Thank you for the weights.. Awesome purchase - great comms and delivery. 5 stars :)

My PowerBlocks have been one of the best investments I have ever made. Although they seem expensive at first, they are actually equal to so many pairs of dumbbells. A huge space saver. With the ability to adjust the dumbbells in 2.5 pound increments, you can't go wrong. They're sturdy and easy to use and store. A great value!

Great expansion for the Powerblock Elite EXP kit. Super happy with my purchase. Powerblock really is tops!

Amazing. Been using for over a year now and still hold up great.

Ware ist gut verarbeitet. Man kann viele Übungen mit machen. Spart viel Platz allerdings sollte man sich den Ständer dazu kaufen.

These work great to up the weight capacity of the power block elites. I maxed out on the 50 pounds and needed another challenge.
