“I did a lot of research about adjustable dumbbells and was leaning towards getting the dial version as they are quick and seemed to be well liked BUT the more I dug into things I realized how many recalls and injuries that have happened due to weights falling onto people!! That is when I found PowerBlock and I couldn't find anything but positive reviews.
I purchased the Sport24 adjustable dumbbells and straight bar and have been super pleased with them. They took me a few practices to get used to how to adjust them but I LOVE having so many options in a single weight. They are durable and sturdy with no wiggle between the plates. I have not had any problems with the plastic arm that locks in the weight but with it being plastic I am concerned that my man hands may break it. Time will tell though!
I 100% recommend these weights and look forward to using them on my weightlifting journey!”
“Love how compact they are. Also like how they don’t roll around because of their square shape. Takes a bit of practice to adjust the weight. But overall very pleased.”
“These are AMAZING! I hesitated for a while to spend the $ but they are definitely both cost saving and space saving compared to having all those separate dumbbells. Also way better than having to switch the plates for drop sets. I’m so glad I finally purchased these! I think because it’s so easy to “turn up” the weight I may need to level up and trade in for a larger set in a year! I can already feel the difference :)”
“These power blocks are TINY compared to the commercial 125 I have. They are mini versions of the Elite series which I honestly prefer than the rubber coated ones I have. These are a nice addition to the garage gym for the women I train.”
“I bought the Sport 24 for use at the office. I love the compact design for that reason. I have some older powerblocks at home and love the magnetic adjustment clip in them. I wish the Sport 24 had magnetic adjustment clips.
All in all a hard to beat light-weight adjustable dumbell and would recommend them to anyone.”
