“Really like them, but the "pin" system is kind of clumsy. I feel like it can be streamlined for easier insertion. Also it would be great if I could insert remove the 2.5 weights without having to remove the handle from the weights.”
“Perfect and looks like they can take a beating. I don't plan on dropping them but I can tell that I'm able to. Really enjoy the thicker handle and the strong knurling as well.”
“Excellent pair of adjustable dumbbells. I chose these due to their outstanding record of durability. When I received them however it looked like I received a previous version or different country model of what I ordered with chinese writing. The staff was very quick to respond to my questions about the ones I received and sent me a new set. I quickly received a new set with no gap in my home workouts. Hopefully in the coming years I can purchase the 80 and 100 expansion sets. I'm confident these will hold up the next 20 years!”
“This is my second dumbbell set from Powerblock. I originally bought my U33 set in 2009. That set held up perfectly and the only thing that is worn out in 16 years is the elastic on the selector.
The Pro100 is perfect. It takes my old set and raises it to 60 lbs making my back and chest exercises much more effective. The knurled grip, while thick has enough texture to stay put in my hands unlike the foam in the U33 which would twist in my hand if not holding tightly. I recommend the Pro100 for anyone serious about full body weight training in a compact area.”
“Fantastic product - the precision insert weights take a little getting used to for quick changes but it's an excellent system. The space saving is unbeatable.”
“Love these things, can't wait to upgrade them to 100 lbs
I wish they came standard with the 32mm handles. I'll probably buy those eventually, the 38mm challenge the grip strength more which has its benefits but oo lord sometimes I wish they were easier to hold.”
“Really happy with my Powerblock Pro 100 EXP set. Moving on and up after maxing out on a different set of adjustable dumbells, and looking forward to adding on more eventually! The knurled grips are essential for handling the higher weights. Weight changes are easy and straightforward. Not a huge fan of how to use the adder weights; as an engineer I feel there could be a sleeker solution for including 5lb increments that wouldnt offset the weight or result in loose components rolling around the floor when swapped out. But overall, I researched all the options and picked this set of adjustable dumbells specifically for their compactness, durability, ability to expand, and the company's long reputation - and those are all 5 star.”
