Excellent quality dumbbells
Very impressed with these weights. Since gyms are closed I was looking for some dumbbells to use at home and these are very high quality. Good grip and high quality rubber, I think these will last for long time. Will purchase more when they are in stock!

Handle has changed for heavy weights -- too thin
I was very disappointed with this; recently purchased Aug 2021 and what was delivered is not what's pictured. The metal bar / handle that you hold is extra thin. In fact, it seems to be the same thin version that is used on my 10lb and 15lb weights. Even my other 20lb weights (as well as the 30s, 35s, and 45s) all have the wider angle (larger diameter). The thin handle with a heavier weight makes it much harder to grip.

    Best Price for New Dumbbells
    I had been looking to buy a new set of dumbbells but right now it seems a lot are going for close to $2 per pound. My local Walmart had an identical set but they were $72 each, the cheapest ones Amazon sells are $54 each. I found these sold as a pair which was exactly what I was looking for. They are the lowest price for 2 40lb dumbbells and on top of that are free shipping (which isn't cheap for this much weight) so that sealed the deal for me. They came in 2 days from FedEx, were well packaged in 2 cardboard boxes with metal staples. The box was fairly sturdy and wasn't ripped or busted anywhere. The weights are encased in foam padding and arrived in perfect shape. They do smell like a very strong rubber for about a week but then it significantly weakens but you can still smell them while you're using them. My main complaint was, as others mentioned, that they can leave behind black residue on your hands or clothes as they have a slight oily film on them. I first tried wiping them off with degreaser which slightly helped but I had to repeatedly rub them with a dry microfiber towel until it stopped turning black to get the weights to where they wouldn't keep leaving black marks on anything they brushed against. I found the knurling to be a bit aggressive at this weight, to where it was deeply digging into my skin, so I put a layer of duct tape over the knurling and they're very comfortable now. One dumbbell weighed around 39lbs 7oz and the other was 2 or 3 ounces heavier, so not perfect but I'm not going to complain about them being a half of a pound off. They've been holding up well and I think these are the best dumbbells to get as they're the cheapest, include free shipping, and are well packaged. Just keep in mind you'll likely want a space to let them air out for a while and will need to invest some time into wiping the oily film off the rubber if you don't want them marking your clothes or hands up.

    Get them! Worst case, return them, but u won't!
    I ordered the 15lb pair of dumbbells. And these are PERFECT for my home gym. They match my other 10lb dumbbells perfectly as well. The handle on the dumbbells are just like my other ones, so not sure why folks are saying they're too thin. They're perfectly fine for what I need these to do. build muscle. Its not something that needs to be pretty. They just need to do what they are intended to do. I will for sure be buying more.

    Great Price for a Pair
    Dumbbells received as expected and no delay in shipping. There was a strong odor at first but I left them out in the garage and the odor has dissipated. A great price for a pair of dumbbells these days and I would certainly buy again. I have several pieces of equipment from BalanceFrom and I have not been disappointed yet.

    They smell bad and one was defective.
    These have a very strong odor due to the oil that they use in the processing of the rubber. The inside of the packaging was stained with this oil as well. After 2 washes in the sink with dish soap and another in the tub with baking soda and vinegar, they still have a noticeable foul odor. If you plan to store these inside your home in an area where people regularly inhabit, then these are not the right choice. If you don't mind storing them outside or in an area with good ventilation, then these are probably fine. The machining on one of the handles wasn't smooth and has very sharp edges (pic included). Thankfully it's at the bottom of the handle so that it can be avoided, but sometimes I grip it a little too far over and it hurts. Given these issues, it's probably best to avoid these, unless you don't mind trying your luck and returning them if you don't like them. I've only owned them for two days so I'm not sure if I will be keeping them. The actual sturdiness of the build feels good and I verified that they actually weigh what they are supposed to weigh.

    Only received 1 dumbbell and not PAIR
    I only received 1 dumbbell, not the PAIR (2 dumbbells) that I ordered. The box even says "Sold as pair". Contacted the seller and waiting to hear back.
