Rubber Encased Hex Dumbbell, Multiple Sizes

I've had these for 4 days.The smell other reviews report was there when these arrived. I put both dumbells in shadow out on my deck for a day.They still smell a bit but only when you get very close to them, and the smell is definitely dissipating.They work and feel and balance like the ones in a regular gym. Good grip and both dumbells are evenly balanced.Weight is 19.6 pounds each. (I've never weighed the ones in the gym but I'd be surprised if those are spot-on at 20 pounds.These have the same heft as gym ones).They also seem robust and unlikely to fall apart.Overall I am very pleased with these and would buy them again.July 17. Ten days since I received these. The smell is nit noticeable unless you put your nose about an inch from the black rubber.These were a good deal and seem the same as what use in a local gym.I'd definitely buy these again!

I normally do not write reviews on Amazon since there are usually plenty already. However, the reviews for these weights really do not address the colorful ones. Also, they all tend to be negative and focused solely on the different sizing between the two weights sent. I ordered the colorful weights with the two tier rack. The base weights in 5-20 pounds arrived in two days in typical Amazon fashion. Each set was well packaged in their own box and all four boxes were inside of a master box. Each set of weights is PERFECT. No flaws, blemishes, or rough edges. I'm not one of those people that weigh them to be absurd, but hubs was curious so I did. They are all within .06 of the stamped weight which is certainly within ANSI standards. I mean honestly people, you aren't going to get perfection with this price point and convenience. I am still waiting for the tier rack and 25 pound set to arrive as they are on back order. I'm getting nervous, but I'm trusting on Besos' Boys to come through. My only complaint will sound silly to most men, but I am sure they ladies will agree, who the hell approved the 30 pound set to be RED?!?!? That red does not flow AT ALL with this color theme. There were so many other color options to go with here. Talk about a missed opportunity. Sadly, I will not be buying them as a result.

Very sturdy

After reading a lot of reviews, I was expecting a stronger rubbery smell to these, and was fine with it due to the price---But these had a very minor smell that was not bothersome at all...Like the smell I expect anything made of that material to have, but it wasn't strong like I thought it would be. I love these weights and have been implementing them into my program! I think they're a great deal for the price, and feel just like the weights I've used in the gym. Great quality for a steal.

Seems like most are around 1lb per dollar so a great value. We use them all the time. The reason why its a 4 and not a 3 is the smell. Over a month later the still have a heavy order. I just started working out so this was unfortunately an unexpected surprise

Comfortable and sturdy!

The black on the weights comes off a bit at first but I think that’s normal. Other than that the weights are great!

I know some folks say they smell. They do, but only if you smell them (not something I'm in the habit of doing). It may have been stronger the first couple days. I have them in my living room where I stretch and work out after running and myself and my kids have never noticed a smell. Other than that they're rubberized weights. What's more to say, they work like all the others.
