No wobbling after multiple sets and No “oily” smell that I kept reading about.
What reviewers didn't like
The paint is prone to chipping --scrubbing the dumbbells before use often resolves this problem.
The main problem I have with the dumbbells is that they’re a little bulky. The dumbbell is already somewhat larger than your standard dumbbell, and balancing the larger size takes a bit of getting used to. .
Requires regular maintenance, such as tightening the loose nuts.
The knurling, or texture of the handle, on these dumbbells is very rough and can result in callouses and irritation on your hands.
16” long to accommodate a lot of weight, longer than most sets.
May not offer enough weight in order to keep some athletes content.
No cushioning or protective storage.
Changing the weight can be tricky.
Does require extra maintenance (chrome flakes, rust protection.
