Recently ordered these hex dumbbells with the chrome handles, and they are an excellent bargain at this price range. Perfect weight training range for the needs of a 55-year-old guy who is just looking to stay healthy.They arrived in four very well fortified boxes - two 25lbs; two 20lbs with two 5lbs; two 15lbs with two 10lbs; and the rack. Yes, they had a light oil sheen and smell, but after washing them in the sink with Dawn, there's no smell, no sheen, and no residue. No burrs in the chrome, or peeling of the rubber coating at all.The rack holds them perfectly, has a small footprint, and takes about 15-20 minutes to put together. You'll need a traditional wrench to hold the nuts steady, as they only include an L-shape hex wrench to screw in the bolts. Great dumbbell set for people looking to stay fit by incorporating some strength training.

Great and organized set up! I had random mismatched weights hanging out in my living room and I wanted it to look neater and all match. The rack is sturdy and has a smaller footprint than some that I have seen. It was easy to put together. I like these with the rubber ends so they won’t scratch up my floors. Like other reviewers said, they had a slight odor so we just left them outside for a bit. It really wasn’t that bad. Then took them in and washed with dawn spray powerwash. A lot came off of them, but they are great now! Totally worth it for the price. I haven’t used them much yet, but they seem great!

Good set for the price. The rack isn't the best but it's functional. When everything arrived it was packaged well in multiple boxes. The rack is easy to put together. Everything is covered in an oil and it smells very strong but cleans up easy with a little dawn dish soap and some elbow grease.

I replaced my CAP cast iron set with these and am very pleased. They look nice. More comfortable than my cast irons (which were hard, had less ergonomic grips, and got a little slippy), plus this set included 25 lb weights. Also, I purchased them on sale for $160.Arrived fast and in 4 boxes. My 25 lb weights were initially missing but then were delivered the next day. They did need wiped off and were a bit oily/dirty as others mentioned. Had some minor imperfections but overall were in great shape. Rack was easy to set up. Easier to use a socket wrench if you have one. Highly recommend.

There is a slight odor when it arrives, and look good quality n feel like good quality , rack makes easy storage n easy to use but the only downside is probably black stains the weights leave behind ,they are really hard to remove n smells go away after a while

Found this set while looking for home gym equipment. They look like commercial gym quality. They came 4 days early and packaged in 4 heavy cardboard boxes. They are coated in a thin type of oil and have a slight rubber smell but that goes away fast. The rack is sufficient and is really a great set for the money. Very satisfied with this purchase.

As others have mentioned, these are shipped in three boxes of weights at 50# each, and one narrow box that holds the stand. In my case, while extremely heavy duty boxes were used, and well taped, one of the boxes was sliced open and minor damage to rubber ends of DBs in that box occurred. Looks like it was slid over something which cut it through.In any event, 2x5, 2x10, 2x15, 2x20, 2x25# DBs are included, making this an excellent "base" set. Handles are knurled and as expected in diameter and abrasiveness. No gloves required, but your mileage may vary.Is there a smell? seems to be the burning question. Of course they have a smell. They were just born of chemicals. They smell like what they are: rubber. So if you have ever had a new bike tire in your house, that is the smell, multiplied by a few pairs. It doesn't bother me in the slightest, and I was able to start using right away. I cannot relate at all to folks who seemed like they were going to swoon after opening the boxes.NOTE: I "washed" these with dish soap and water before using because they are covered in manufacturing residual dust etc. and will make your hands filthy otherwise. Mine did *not* have any kind of oily residues, as others have mentioned; again, just new tire smell, which for me is not obnoxious. But hey- some people think cilantro tastes terrible, so there is no accounting for taste.NOTE #2: Unlike the way Amazon's own brand and some other DBs I have purchased are wrapped, these were just loose in the box. No Styrofoam, no placement in a baggie, nada. Just in the box. So they are not going to be 100% brand new and flawless looking when you take them out. Get over it. They're dumbbells. They'll look like that in a couple months of workouts anyway. Also, because there is no protection, be judicious in opening the boxes. Just slice around the tape so you are not gouging a chunk out of your new best friends.I got these for basically a buck a pound, which is what weights were before Covid, and what they should be anyway, and held off on buying them until I hit the sale amount. Having said that, they would still be worth it for the $200 amount too, of course, just slightly less of a bargain.As has been mentioned by other reviewers, the A-frame is easy to put together, but will take your fingers off if you are not watching what you are doing when replacing the weights onto the rack, something which was also true at many gyms I have used and is a bug and not a feature of this style of rack.Definitely recommend, and would purchase again. Plan on augmenting with additional weights and eventually using a horizontal rack for all of them, but this was a steal-- and delivered on top of it.I am keeping the boxes. These are some of the heaviest duty boxes I have had sent to me. You should keep them until your return date is over anyway, in the event something untoward happens and they need to go back.

But a couple things to be aware of....1. They have a very strong chemical smell. The whole room smells like strong rubber smell, hopefully this fades in time.2. There is some sort of black residue rubbing off from the dumbbells. I learned this the hard way and ruined my shirt. Make sure you wipe them off with soap water and a cloth before use, or it will get all over your hands and clothes.3. The rubber is shedding off little bits, I assume this is just because they are brand new?4. My only other complaint is the rack seems to be too tight for the dumbbells, and when taking them on and off the rack they hit each other. The rubber protectors on each rack also come off really easily - I will likely try to glue these on so they aren't constantly falling off when I go to pick up a dumbbell.Overall, the weights seem good quality and feel comfortable to grip. I love the color, style and they look really nice in my home gym. For the price I think this is a great set and am happy with my purchase.

el producto despues de comprarlo nuvamente me llego pero incompleto y no hay forma de saber el motivo porque llega asi o porque no llega y despues lo compras de nuevo y aun mayor precio y no se vale la demora el tiempo y todo que con lleva

Only received stand, no weights.

Definitely smelly and dusty when delivered. Washed with dish soap and smell mostly went away. Rubber coated will always have a bit of a smell. Otherwise good quality and exactly as described. Fast delivery. Would recommend 100%.

Me llegó mi pedido incompleto, de las 10 mancuernas solo me llegaron 4 (2 de 15 libras y 2 de 10 libras) y falta el rack. Si me interesa el artículo pero completo, me podrían enviar las piezas faltantes por favor antes de proceder a la devolución por pedido incompleto?

Arrived a week earlier than estimated. Very happy with the set, and the price was very good. The stand was easy to assemble and after quick clean of each weight, they were ready to use. Have used them several times since receiving them and am very happy.
