These are a great set of adjustable dumbbells for a good price. I purchased these when they were on sale for $45 but would be willing to pay the full price now of $55.
Some background for my comparison, one of my friends purchased some adjustable dumbbells from Walmart for $60 dollars and they were significantly worse than these. The threading on these is significantly cleaner and the stop has a small rubber o ring to fit tightly against the plates. These plates are also metal which was not the case for the Walmart ones. The grip texture is aggressive enough without being too much for extended use. The case is ok, and I don't expect it to stand up to much abuse but works well for storage.
Pros:
-Great threading and collar
-Grips are comfortable
-Metal plates
-Long threaded mount for expansion of weights
-Has a storage case
-Cost
Cons:
-Case is kind of flimsy
Overall: I would recommend these if you are looking for cheaper barbells that have a good finish with the ability to expand your options if you have already have weights or if you are looking to get started with your own dumbbell set.
