Decent weight set These are decent weights – carry case arrived damaged, it was replaced for us – the weights themselves are solid and easy to handle.Caveat: a 40 pound set is not much weight – I figured it would be plenty for me as I’m just getting into this, but actually my wife’s outgrown them as well.Thing is, the bar weighs 5 pounds, you get 15 pounds of assorted weight for each of the two bars, total 40 pounds, this allows you to set up from 5 to 20 pound dual dumbbells or a single up to 35 pounds – not quite enough to get there from here.Plan on adding a few more 5 pounder or 10 pounders to it, is all – they are available separately so no big deal. I’ve set these bars up with 65 pounds of weights with no problem using 10 pounders.The bars are good quality and have rubber washers to lock the weights in place.For some exercises the 14 inch bars get in the way compared to simple hex dumbbells, and it does take a while to change weights…

I would highly recommend leaving these weights outside (and/or washing them) to let them air out and control the smell, but it is not immediately overpowering. When the package arrived I slowly opened the box waiting for a toxic stench to explode out, but it never came. It was not until I lifted a plate out of the box that I noticed the smell people mentioned (the…
