“The replacement PowerBlock pin for my PowerBlock pro dumbbells are great, but reordering replacement can be tricky unless know exactly where to look for on the PowerBlock webpage.”

“I very much like working out with these on the go. The only kind of cumbersome thing is taking out the 5 pound adjustment weights and reinserting them but it's not difficult. I would buy them again. The ordering process was straightforward. I wanted the USA made ones which are only offered on their website. There isn't a huge used market for these and most are priced at almost retail anyway.”

“For the home gym, these adjustable weight dumbbells are the way to go- Particularly if you're cramped for space or just don't want the excess clutter of a full dumbell set. Relatively simple to use and after about a month, I haven't had any issues w/them, other than having to be a little bit careful when using the weight selector insert to make sure that it slots into exactly where you mean to put it- If you aren't paying attention, it is sometimes easy to cross it up between two different weight slots but I guess I imagine that'll happen a little less once I've used them a while longer and get more familiar. A big plus for me was that the particular version that I bought (Elite USA 90) are made in the USA. I also went with the knurled grip version and I'm glad that I did. They feel more like commercial quality weights that you'd find at your local gym, which is a plus. Debated getting the expansion to go up to 70lbs. but for home gym use, 50 is likely going to be good enough for a while since I'm not going to be pushing my limits w/out anyone else around. Only deducted 1 star due to pricing, which seems a little high- Particulary for the expansion packs. Overall, thumbs up and I think these will last a good long while, based upon perceived initial quality.”

“Ordering from the site was simple. I was a bit confused with what parts worked with what or the differences in each dumbbell model. After reading around a bit it made more sense. I would’ve like a bit more instructional videos on how to operate but YouTube helped with that.”

“The new handles and pins work fine for the weight plates I previously had; but, the chrome adder weights no longer fit. My previous ones are slightly longer and so do not lock into the new handles. So long as I have one weight plate on, the adder weights stay in, they just clunk around as they move withint the handle.”

“I had a little uncertainty that the straight barbell I wanted to order would work with my USA Elite dumbbells, but a quick exchange with support assured me it would. The cause of my uncertainty is that at the time I ordered my dumbbells the product name was slightly different.”

“Love the dumbells so far. I always wanted something that let me progressively overload so conveniently. Few months in and they work great.”

“We have been using the power blocks for about a month now and are really enjoying them. For someone with limited space for gym equipment, the Powerblocks provide a legit solution with minimal footprint. The only complaint I have is that it can be a little cumbersome to change the weights. Sometimes it’s difficult to quickly align the selector fork with the slots on the weight carrier.”

“The flexibility and durability of the PowerBlock is great. I have owned my pair for about twenty-plus years. I ordered a new set of pins, which was the first replacement I've ever needed.”

“The quality and ease is unmatched. The naming conventions and the explicit explanation of the various stages is unclear and hard to navigate on their website.”

“I love the utility of PowerBlocks. Their space-saving design and cost-per-pound value are both fantastic. I am on my second set. Years ago I had a set of PowerBlock Sport 9.0 dumbbells with up to 90 lbs per hand. They were great, but a bit noisy. Sold those and got the PowerBlock Pro set with urethane-coated plates. I like these better. For pressing and pulling exercises (bench press, rows, etc), it's hard to notice a difference between these and traditional dumbbells. For rotational exercises (curls, lateral lifts, etc.) with the adder weights in, the feel is a little off, a little harder, as the additional weight is further from your elbow, changing the rotational mass distribution. Not a deal-breaker, but different, and may result in needing to step down your weight lifted by 5 lbs. Some exercises are downright difficult (goblet squats, tricep extensions) due to difficulty gripping a single block with two hands. For that reason, I bought the PowerBlock Curl Bar, which has worked great. The only other item to note is that the weight adjustment slider works great on flat, hard, surfaces. If you set the block on a padded bench, yoga mat, etc. the groves may not align properly and it takes some finesse to get the sidebar into place. Again, not a deal-breaker, but something to note.”

“The Powerblocks are great. My only disappointment was that Powerblock started offering free shipping 3 days after my purchase. Because this was such a short window, I reached out hoping for some effort to make that right, considering I was not informed or aware of this impending change. After multiple emails, I never received a response. Disappointing to not receive any response.”
