My stand arrived all dented up, was not very sturdy. Had to return product of which they charged me over 150.00 for supposed dents and scratches (i have the product 3 days and used it 0 times).
I’m a Master Trainer and do not recommend this product.

Thank you Ironmaster – you must be a gift from God. Not only did you give me super awesome biceps, but I can also gaze at my reflection on your perfectly contoured sides. I am so addicted to your Quick-Lock system that I vomit at the site of another dumbell. May God have mercy on your soul if you don’t buy Ironmaster right now.

The Quicklock system is very clever, on paper. You add plates, or take them off, and then lock in place by rotating the pins until they stick. For someone who would otherwise need a lot of dumbbells, this is really convenient.
Unfortunately, the poor quality of the plates make it extremely time consuming to use. I like to do circuit training and to move fast between exercises with no rest. Let me tell you, if you try to use this system in a hurry you may get injured. I did. This is because the plates don’t really match, and as they switch position when you lift, the lock may come undone, unless you are super super careful. Not a very safe proposition. I bought this system because of the raving review. I guess I am the unlucky one who got poorly made plate, or maybe other reviewers don’t mind spending 3 minutes switching plates every-single-time. I do. I still use this system, but I ended up buying a gym membership because I find it less time consuming and frustrating than using this system. If you don’t mind a forced ‘rest’ between exercises, this is for you. Too bad: it’s a great idea, and I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the poor quality of the plates.

I purchased the Ironmaster 75lb dumbells a few weeks ago, and I gotta say they are great. Not as quick to adjust the weights as the bowflex, but they seem to be as sturdy as the gym quality fixed weight dumbells that I used to use at the gym. I would recommend these to anyone over the bowflex or any other adjustable system. Even though it takes a little longer to change the weights, it’s still not long enough for it to be an issue, maybe 30-40 seconds for both dumbells. I never write reviews on items that I purchase… my wife does, but I don’t
… but I thought that the quality was amazing on this item. I went back and forth between purchasing the bowflex and this, and i’m glad I chose this. Anyone looking for a great quality adjustable dumbell should look at the ironmaster, you won’t be disappointed!

I just wanted to reiterate what some others mentioned before. Put on the plates, screw them in place and they WILL NOT JINGLE OR CLANK AT ALL. They seriously feel like gym quality free weights when assembled. This allows you to comfortably do some free weight exercises that I would most definitely be skeptical of trying with other adjustable weight sets.
That being said, it takes a bit longer to change the weights than with other sets that I’ve looked at (my friend has the power blocks and I’ve used the bowflex selectech ones at a local sporting goods store). In my opinion, the speed issue is a non-factor. Unless you are doing super speedy circuit workouts with a lot of weight change and no down time, these weights will be perfect for you (just work in the weight change into your 20-40 second rest period between sets).
This is by far the best home gym purchase that I’ve made.
BUY THESE.
