FlexWave Rubber Encased Hex Dumbbell Set – 70LB/80LB/90LB/110LB/120LB/130LB/140LB/160LB Total Weight, Black, Solid Cast Iron with Non-Slip Grip for Strength Training and Home Gym

visually, everything checks out very well. I bought a pair of 70lbs where the chrome handle and rubber coat shows no signs of defects. The only slight problem I have is the difference in weight which is always a gamble that doesn't make a difference in your workout anyway. One dumbbell is 68lb while the other is 66.9lb. BE AWARE dumbbells all around the world are never the correct weight due to the processing it takes to make them! The heavier the weight, the higher the chances of getting a higher difference in weight because of the little manual tweaks that add up to form a difference in each dumbbell. So a 1lb, 2lb difference is perfectly fine (your body will not feel a difference in strain if the dumbbell is higher than 30lbs alone), but this usually only happens with heavier weights. I did some 'squats' and 'chest presses' with them and I never did feel a weight difference on one side of my body, so I'm gonna give it a perfect!

It's hard to see, but my scale shows 89.6 lbs which I'd say is scale error as opposed the the actual weight of 90 lbs. Ergonomic handles and hex rubber is in perfect shape. I'd put the odor at 3 out of 10; it's obvious but not terrible, as was expected. Smells like solvent as others said. I will be buying more. Fedex was perfect, packages were double boxed with thin wood board.

I ordered the 15lb pair of dumbbells. And these are PERFECT for my home gym. They match my other 10lb dumbbells perfectly as well. The handle on the dumbbells are just like my other ones, so not sure why folks are saying they're too thin. They're perfectly fine for what I need these to do. build muscle. Its not something that needs to be pretty. They just need to do what they are intended to do. I will for sure be buying more.

I purchased this set with the 550lb large set of dumbbells. These are pretty decent for the price. The weights are not to a calibrated weight so if you was looking for dumbbells with the exact weight less /- 1lb these are not the DBs for you. When I received mine I ended up receiving 3 individual 35lb dbs and 1 40 lb db. I had to call in a return because unlike these review the items were not individual. So put in the return, All items were individually packed, so I returned the extra 35 lb dumbbell after talking with the customer service rep. I sent the item back and I was told I would receive a replacement with a couple days. Well a couple days passed I didn't receive anything. Call Monday the next week, I was given the run around and was told he would look into it. No change again, I think a one point I chatted with someone through their help chats system, not sure how i might have done that. By this time is was the holidays so I wait until that was over called again, was told they were going to elevate the ticket. Its been nearly 4 full weeks since my original return was processed by this time. So I go over everything again, and I see the working on the return "Pair". Got to thinking how am i supposed to return a pair when that is what I was missing. So I decided to, with my own money $40, send the 40lb db back to the same place the first dumbbell. Well there it goes I get an email saying the return has now been received. So now its been a week since they have received both dumbbells and 35lb dumbbell and a 40 lb dumbbell and its new item has not shipped yet. By this time and the money I spend to ship the 40 lb dumbbell I could have just ordered 40lb dumbbell set and been dome with it. This 45lb DB set it fine. Smells like oil but I can live with that.

I recently purchased these dumbbells from Walmart, and unfortunately, I encountered some issues. The handle on one of the dumbbells seems uneven, which makes them feel unbalanced during workouts. This imbalance affects the overall experience and safety, making them less comfortable to use. I hope this information is helpful for future improvements.

This dumbbell "pair" is significantly mismatched. After months of use, it kept feeling like one weight was heavier than the other. And sure enough, when weighed on a scale, one is 19.6lbs and the other is 22.4lbs. Almost a 3 lb difference! Unfortunately I didn't notice in time so my right arm is significantly larger than my left. Ugh. I would strongly NOT recommend this product unless you want to feel lopsided.

I ordered a bulk 5-50 lb set on 6/18 and received everything on the 20th but never received my 45s and 40s. I called customer service and they processed a replacement 45 lb set. I received only one 45 lb dumbbell days later NOT in a box but loose and damaged. A couple of days later I received the second one and this one was also loose and damaged. I called customer service again and they said I had to ship the dumbbells back to them in a Box in order for them to process another replacement… what nerve!!! So I did. I shipped it the same day and they received my boxed shipment on the 24th. I’ve called twice and continue to get the “scripted” run around. Today is the 30th and they have yet to ship my dumbbells. I decided to cancel the replacement request and receive a “partial” refund. Oh yeah, the 40s came and you can see from my pictures how they shipped them. Now, my 5-50 set is officially incomplete! Thanks Walmart!!!

I was very disappointed with this; recently purchased Aug 2021 and what was delivered is not what's pictured. The metal bar / handle that you hold is extra thin. In fact, it seems to be the same thin version that is used on my 10lb and 15lb weights. Even my other 20lb weights (as well as the 30s, 35s, and 45s) all have the wider angle (larger diameter). The thin handle with a heavier weight makes it much harder to grip.
