Any opinions on this? (if money is not a concern)

These are great for saving space and still having a decent set of dumbbells. They are a little long though, so some movements are a bit awkward, good construction, really easy to change weights. Costco has had coupons for these before, save $100 I think.

I purchased Power Blocks over these because the nautilus seems too flimsy. Actually, I'm looking to upgrade. PM me if you want to buy my Power Blocks. :D

I used to sell these at fitness depot. Great weights, but they only go up to 52.5 lbs each.

I have used these a lot. They can be awkward for some exercises because you have to hold them farther from your body than is ideal but they are good otherwise.

Kinda cool, but again only up to 52.5lbs

I found them convenient for a range of exercises that use less than 53 lbs of resistance per arm, and so I bought these (with staff discount, of course) and then bought 60s, 75s, and 90s. The setup is pretty well rounded and I'm glad the selectech's make it easy for me to select the weight I want.

Really stupid-proof, and a great space saver :)

I OWN THEM.


I DIDNT THINK THEY WERE FLIMSY AT ALL - COMPARED TO OTHER ONES I TRIED, BUT I BOUGHT THEM ABOUT 2--3 YEARS AGO WHEN THEY FIRST CAME OUT ME THINKS

THEY LIVE IN MY TRUCK AND THEY COME OUT TO THE OILFIELD WITH ME. I LOVE THEM
