Do some research, these are the best adjustable db's out there
I went to my local Sears and tried out the Bowflex SelectTechs; then I tried out the PowerBlocks that a friend owns. I Came across the Ironmaster Quick Lock system after researching adjustable dumbells online; I heard the Ironmaster name mentioned in a bodybuilding chat forum wherein the original poster had mentioned SelectTechs versus PowerBlocks, and one of the replies mentioned that the Ironmaster was best.

I looked at the Ironmasters online, and they are aware that people rarely have a chance to "try before you buy", so they created a very favorable 30-day return policy as a trial period. Impressed by their confidence in their product along with my own research, I decided to give the Ironmasters a try.

To make this brief: This is one of the best fitness products I have ever used. I bought the Quick-Lock Dumbell system along with the Super Bench, and the 120lb add-on kit (each DB goes up to 120lbs), the total with shipping and everything was just under 00. If you buy direct from the IronMaster website, there are usually combo deals available that lower the price of buying items individually.

Having these dumbells is as good as having a complete rack of dumbells that go from 10lbs to 120lbs in 5lb increments; but they only take up a few square feet of space! They are not as quick to change as SelectTech or PowerBlock, but they are reasonably quick & easy to change. These dumbells are tough, and like a fixed dumbell at a gym, they don't rattle or have plates sliding around and are FAR and AWAY more strongly built than the competitors. You could actually drop these on the floor at the end of a set and they are more than tough enough to handle the punishment.
Unlike the others, Ironmaster INCLUDES the stand with the dumbells. The others sell their stands separately for an extra 0-0... keep that in mind when comparing dumbells. Also remember that the Ironmasters have a lifetime warranty and are 100% metal, no plastic or rubber parts, strictly iron!

Please do your research, and I think you will agree that the Ironmasters are the best bang for the buck. I have been using them for 3 months now and it is one of the best things I have ever purchased. They have exceeded my expectations (and that is quite rare).

Excellent Weight Set
These are hands-down the best adjustable weights I've come across. Construction is solid. No plastic. They feel great. No loose screws or weights making noise. They're superbly designed.

poor quality
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.

The very best way to go, in my opinion
I did a lot of research before purchasing. I looked at buying a used set of individual dumbbells, but the racks take up a lot of room, not to mention the total weight. And most of the adjustable dumbbells were unwieldy or shoddy (or both). The Ironmasters are built to last a lifetime.

A big difference between these and other adjustables is that the bar is only as wide as the weights you're using. This makes an e huge difference in maintaining good form, not to mention the ease of resting on your thighs when working with heavier weights.

Cosmetically, they are very attractive. They look even better than in the photos. The square shape is a big plus in my opinion, especially great for setting down on the floor.

There is absolutely no rattle, shifting or movement of the weights once tightened. And once tightened, it ain't coming off until you take it off. It's a remarkably simple but ingenious design. I find them somehow even better balanced and easier to handle than pro weight room dumbbells.

The stand is compact and not too tall. It's the perfect size.

The only drawback, of course, is that you have to manually add and remove weights. I am not the fastest in the world at this, but I had my son time me so that I could write this review:

Adding 20 pounds to one dumbbell (10 on each end) take me 30 seconds. So two dumbbells take 60 seconds. But if I rushed, I could do it faster.

Removing the same 20 pounds from one dumbbell take me 20 seconds, so two take 40 seconds. Again, I could probably do it faster if I wanted. I'm not in that big of a rush. Anything within 60 seconds is fine with me.

If you're looking for dumbbell sets, your choices are:

1. Individual dumbbells (most convenient of all, but more space required, and it's a lot of total weight)
2. Adjustable dumbbells with a switch or pin (faster than Ironmasters, but not nearly as easy to use in the motions, and not as safe/solid)
3. Ironmasters (more professional but slower than the other adjustables)

In my opinion, the Ironmasters are the best value, certainly one of the best value purchases I've made in a long time. And my order arrived nearly a week earlier than I expected. Highly recommended, as you can tell!

Simply the Best and closest to your local gym dumbell
These 75lb dumbells surpassed my expectations. At0 I was expecting allot and I got it.

They are extremely well made, solid, heavy, clean and ready to be used by men and women.

They start out being 5lbs each just the handles and they come with 5lb plates and a couple of 2.5lb plates. For the most part you go from 5lbs unplated up to 75lbs plated for each dumbell. It is a simple locking screw in each end making it very safe. It has a little "v" groove to show you how to place/hold the dumbells as well as making sure the groove in the end screws match the same location which is "locked" in postion so you have no worries of plates falling off.

They are tight fits so the wgts are very tight together and provide little plate clanks when using them similar to what is in many gym plated type dumbells.

These are NOT the type that have a "switch" which changes the wgt. You phyically have to unscrew and add or remove wgt, however, that is very simple and quick. I have read where one complained of such, but it is actually your rest btwn sets and you are ready to roll. However, if that is a concern, do not get these as it will require wgt changes as you go.

I had road tested some of the switch type and was NOT as impressed as I was with these. Several of the switch type at 75lbs were oversized and limited your range of motion. These do NOT limit your range as they are about the same size as round plated dumbells as some gyms. These dumbells are square in shape but work flawlessly. The only thing better might be to have pre-set hex dumbells on a rack by each 5lb increment. If you have the space and the B000GE5QRM,000 plus you'll need for many dumbells and rack then look into it. If space is an issue, these should be considered.

Lastly they come with a very sturdy steel stand that is rubber coated on all flat surfaces. The top shelf is where the dumbells are stored and a good starting point when doing standing exercises and the shelves below can hold the extra wgt plated and other fitness items giving you a rack and storage all in one and able to fit it all in a small out of the way space.

They offer an additional set of plates for separate purchase that brings each dumbell up to 120lbs each. The company offering these gives free ground shipping and no sales tax so it's a good deal and provides me with the ability to workout on my schedule completely and all with miminal apartment space and no need for a gym membership. However, I do belong to one but these will allow for the many days of a tight schedule that wouldn't allow for a trip to the gym.
