REPFitness Quickdraw Adjustable Dumbbells, Multiple weight ranges available including: 5-30, 5-40,5-50 and 5-60 lbs

I previously owned Snode, so this is my comparison as well as pros and consPros:- Lifetime warranty, significantly better than Snode's 3 or 5-year warranty- Over $300 cheaper compared to Snode- Base is lighter and easier to move around than Snode's- Can remove weights without putting back in the base- Width is manageable for shoulder press workouts- Easy to tell if something broke or lose because of the design- You can have different weights, good for certain workouts- Easy 5 pound increment compared to Snode's magnet BS which makes it harder to put back to the base- Base is reversible unlike Snode. Meaning you can interchange or put the other way around which Snode does not really likeCons:- Slightly wider than Snode dumbbells- Maximum weight capacity of 60 lbs, which is limiting for certain back work outs, however for every other work outs, this is way more than enough to get really strong- Knurl is not as premium feeling compared to Snode, but still great, no issues and does not hurt your hand- Weight numbers on the base is hard to read since it is black on black but it is etched. Since the numbers are on both sides, I fixed it by painting one side with white paint marker. Now it looks really good- 60 pound max, I wish it can go up to 80 even if it was very wide, but Peppin is too pricey and not lifetime warranty

I did a bunch of research, bought the Bowflex, and then regretted it bitterly. The Bowflex looks cool on paper but it has an incredibly delicate, complex, hard-to-understand, easy-to-break gear mechanism. And of course my Brokeflex broke the instant I took it out of the box and set it on the cradle. It bound permanently to the cradle, irrepairably. Fortunately even though Bowflex doesn't want you returning it (they have a big flier inside begging you not to), Amazon took it back without question.I'm dead serious, go do a search for "Bowflex stuck" and you will see HUNDREDS of resources on how people's Bowflex dumbbells broke permanently. Oh, and their customer service is actually terrible just like all the reviews say. I couldn't reach them.So I returned the Bowflex, did more research, and found that this brand, Rep, is literally the only brand of adjustable dumbbell on Amazon that doesn't have a bunch of reviews saying, "A weight fell off and broke my foot!" All of the other brands have reviews that say "For God's sake buy something safer!"But this Rep set had suspiciously positive reviews. It didn't seem to have a lot of purchases, presumably because it's more expensive than the others. But I took the plunge and bought the set with the full 60-lb expansion, you can see it in the photo I took. Each dumbbell goes to 60lbs. And even though this is just a pair of adjustable dumbbells, there is a LOT to say about them, especially in comparison with the Bowflex.First, the packaging: The Rep came in 4 manageable boxes of up to 30 pounds each. The Bowflex came in a single 102-pound box. This complicates everything from shipping to unpacking to returns. I like the Rep box design a lot better.Second, the instructions: The Bowflex requires a PhD in their idiotic gearing mechanism. It requires lots of study -- there are tons of warnings and things to learn. Do this, don't do that, or it will break. Blah blah. Not what I wanted to before working out. Whereas the Rep came with so few instructions that I was concerned at first, but it turns out to be so simple and easy that you don't NEED a bunch of instructions. I watched their company video one time, the one where they throw it off the roof of their corporate HQ, and their video taught me everything I needed to know. Frankly you can learn everything about using these weights in under a minute.Next, the cradle: The Rep cradle design is *much* better than the Bowflex cradle. For one, the Bowflex dumbbells cannot work without their cradle. You could throw the Rep cradles away if you wanted; it's not required at all and it wouldn't matter. Compare to the Bowflex, which needs its plastic cradle for actually changing the weights. The Rep cradle is also lower profile, prettier, and significantly more durable (the Bowflex one felt cheap).OK, and last, the actual dumbbells. They look and feel badass. Changing the weights is so fast that I was doing it as fast as the guy in the video within a few tries. You really can do it just as fast as the Bowflex, especially if you count the time needed to insert and remove them from the cradles. You're just flipping red switches; you can see them in the picture.You can technically get it down to 2.5-lb increments on the weight, but you have to be OK with a very slight imbalance. You just take off one 2.5-lb adder weight (which takes 2 seconds, including setting it down). Because the 2.5lb weights are positioned near your hand, closer to the center of gravity, the imbalance is minimal.The design of these Rep dumbbells is clean and simple. You can see just by looking at them how they work. Even an idiot like me can figure them out. The weights drop cleanly into their slots, which are V-shaped and forgiving. Everything fits together smoothly. The dumbbells don't rattle as you use them. The grip is comfortable. There are two extra smaller handles on each dumbbell for doing 2-hand exercises. And overall they look incredibly professional. They would be completely in place in an actual gym -- these things can take a real pounding.So glad I switched to the Reps. I'm already motivated to work out more. Good stuff.

I did a ton of research before I went with these. Among the top: Nuobells, Rep x Pepins and these. Bottomline: Nuobells would take a lot of babysitting to prevent them from breaking. I’m not gonna pay a ton of money to then need to baby them all the time. Rep x Pepins, these are definitely at the top, but out of my price range and honestly even though those can go up to 125lbs, if I need to go that heavy, I’ll be using a barbell with plates and perform the closest movement. For my needs, these Quickdraws are PERFECT. A right balance of weight range (I have the 65lbs), speed between adjustments and absolutely rock solid. I don’t need to be extremely careful, even though I’m not tossing dumbbells or dropping them, but it sure is nice to know that if they fall from a reasonable height while using or failing, they are not going to blow up on me. Game changers for sure!!

So far impressed with these. The 2.5 pound weights have a little play and make a little noise but the tolerances are pretty tight for the 5 pound plates. Easy and quick to adjust and nice that you can adjust the weights outside of the cradle for quick changes for drop sets or super sets. They feel solid and being proven to withstand any accidental drops is good peace of mind.

I really like the dumbbells, I prefer the switches to the twist handles because they seem easier to manage and less likely to slip off mid exercise. Everything works great out of the box, setup was really straight forward. I have a friend who spent twice as much on an all metal set, but I like these twice as much at half the price.I was missing some parts and they resolved the issue quickly and responded in a very timely manner. I was impressed by their customer service.I would definitely do business with them again.

Easily adjustable. Feels good in my hands. Have held up well to being dropped hard several times. Would recommend for any home gym. I had bowflex, power blocs and Nuobell however you spell that, and this set was by far my favorite. Something about the levers to switch weights on this has a good asmr effect to my ears
