This product is wonderful, my husband bought this for himself and because its adjustable I was able to use it! It’s a multi-person product great for the whole family. You can even have it w/out weights so its light weight and you can easily tone!
I would recomend this to anyone!

This set is great, especially for the price!!! Its easy to change out, it has a great contoured grip with rubber lining and seems very well made. It also adjusts at 5lb increments rather than 10lbs. I fully recommend!!

One of the dumbbell’s weight plates arrived with a broken “tooth”, which prevented it from staying connected to the rest of the dumbbell. Not a huge problem since I don’t use the full 55 pounds. Overall, it seems like the product should work fine, but the “teeth” are rather small and I wonder how the product will stand-up to long-term use.

I have been working out since high school (20yrs). I am very familiar with the weights. I purchased these dumbbells to workout at home on days I can’t make it to the gym. I owned a pair of Bowflex dumbbells in the past and sold them, stupid me. Received the LifeCore dumbbells. Much to my surprise upon opening the package one of the bars did not function, the locking mech did not work. LifeCore claimed it was a shipping issue and the warranty will not cover it. So much for a warranty. So I paid $114 for a refurbished bar from LifeCore directly. Received this bar and oh yea again much to my surprise, another broken bar. Called them and spoke to them personally. They stated they would send me another one and a return shipping label to return this one. I requested since it was two weeks since I have had them and still not able to use them if I could get express shipping. Well of course if I am willing to pay the extra shipping. Then he threatened to not even send me a replacement bar. And made comments that really ticked me off. Then hung up on me. I called back to speak with the manager and he mysteriously was out to lunch. Called back seconds later after they transferred me to the wrong voice mail and mysteriously he answered, not knowing it was me of course. They lied to me and they made threats, idiots. The ball was in their court however because I had to have that bar so I held back. But now its my time. Here are my warnings:
Cheap, Cheap, Cheap (hence 3 bars). Why would a brand new set need the bar to be replaced this many times.
Warranty. Don’t think so. And you have to send the bar back at your expense. They have to take time to look at the bar to make sure they were at fault. You designed and built the stupid bar, of course your at fault. And believe me, its never their fault.
The design. Well you get what you pay for.
Again I have owned the Bowflex dumbbells and trust me, much better design and customer service, as well as a valid warranty.
If someone offered me a brand new set of the LifeCore dumbbells for free, no thanks, they are dangerous and the customer service are idiots. Stay away, stay far away. Anyone want to buy a set of paper weights?
