I ordered a pair of these from Walmart twice and the number stamped (35lbs) was upside down. I returned them. My question is the stamping facing the correct way/ consistent with all other dumbbells.

i bought a bunch of them, different weight, and did not see any irregularity on them. They are really nice and sturdy. i Love them and I have about 15 pleope training on them and they still look like new and everybody "enjoys" working with these.

The ones (10, 15, 25 lbs) I ordered from Amazon were all facing the correct direction/orientation. They came as single, so I had to order two of each, but all six are consistent.

The padding are not that thick, but they do a good job of padding your palm and help with griping. I haven't notice any issues with dumbbells or barbells during my work out. Hope this help narrow you in the right direction.

It's normal. The rails don't always match perfectly. It happens on my machine all the time. You get used to itI should say that mine is a slight but noticeable bump though nothing that would interrupt my workouts. If yours is significant, check to make sure everything is locked down and if not, contact Bayou Fitness.

The plastic holder comes with the weights & indeed, is a very important component for these bells to work. You cannot change the resistance otherwise. The weights sit in the holder and the handle is inserted between the plates. A dial on the handle selects the desired weight. They are delicate and need to be handled with care. But well worth the investment. The same set of dumbells will cost you easily 3 times or more.

guys, Ironmaster dumbbells used to be made in the USA. that HAS NOT been the case for quite a few years.

Don't get them man, They're really very awkward. (try to imagine how long each bar is. They're both made to hold 100lbs in plates!) 18-20 inches long. If you're used to extending to where the weights almost touch you will dislike them. If you go straight up and down like a robot then I def recommend them. Start buying sold dumbbells one by one. It will be worth the money.

I have tested this to 8,000 pounds and it holds. For heavier dumbbells I puff up my lats and rest my arms against them for the perfect support. You should be fine, go for it.

I haven't had a problem with them. I always double check on each set just in case. I use these dumbells all the time, very happy with them.

I actually bought my first set in 2004 the classic set and I bought the bar just to take a chance I planned on buying a new set of dumbbells but the bar actually worked with my old set which surprised me I've been in the business for over 30 years and I've never been so happy with anything as I am with powerblocks products they really take a beating I ordered the ez curl bar used from amazon to save 12 bucks and it looks like it was never used I hope this helps you just remember they only make the bars for the classic and urethane sets

Hi Melvin, I see what you are saying. Totally wrong weight. I don't charge shipping to specifically avoid issues like this because other merchants sometimes put in wrong product information. I've tried to change the weight on the listing, and it looks like it is correct now. Thanks for bringing that up! -Channells

Just bought a pair at a local sporting goods store. They're supposed to have bigger ball bearings (thus smoother rotation) and appear bigger than the original Perfect Pushups. Also they're manufactured by a different company, although both endorsed by the same creator, Alden Mills. Also they're about double the price. I would say they're worth it if you don't mind the price tag.

You get 2 Dumbbells per order and I love it! I use it in my apartment, I had it for about 2 months now, they are strong and so far no problems at all.. Looks like I'll be having these for many years to come. Hope this help! :) PSI have the 8 pounds and the 8 pounds are black color.

shipping weight is a lie. I ordered a set of 50lbs dumbells and shipping weight said it was 88.4lbs. I have checked my weights and they are 100 together.

I basically only use dumbells when I do bench presess/ flat and decline I used 100lbs to 105 pounds for flat as well as decline presses without any noticeable strain on my powerhooks , very well constructed and worth every penny. I would going upwards to 120pounds without giving it much thought.

Hi, porchpotato. I don't own and haven't used this product, but I own a pair of similar RAWBuiltTech standard-size barbell collars. I don't have one of those interchangeable-plates dumbbell sets, but I can say this much: even a 25 LB (old) Weider weight plate and a pair of (much newer) 5 LB Weider plates (or "disks") press against the clamped-on barbell collar (when the barbell is tilted even moderately). The 35 LB weight-plate trio then causes the barbell collar to shift toward the end of the barbell sleeve, if only by a fraction of an inch. Oh, I know that virtually no-one is tough enough (or dexterous enough) to try handling and curling a 70 LB dumbbell set made with 25 LB weight plates, but I hope my reply is a bit useful ...

I think it is weight based. My husband is able to completely invert. He is 5'10" and 165#. I am unable to completely invert. I am 5'4" and 110#. I can get about 85% inverted.

No. They each max out at 100lbs per dumbbell. You have a total of 200lbs when both are assembled.
