After using these dumbbells for two weeks, they adjust quickly and with ease.

I had a set of Bowflex adjustables and wanted to upgrade to the larger size, but I figured I'd check out some alternatives — I'm glad I did. After reading a lot of reviews (Garage Gym Reviews has some helpful stuff) I landed on these Ironmasters because of their quality and durability. Don't be concerned about the speed of changing weights. It's about 30 seconds to change both dumbbells. I love how solid these feel — and they look amazing.
I ended up ordering the heavy handles, which I'm keeping, and another accessory, which I decided to return. The return process isn't complete but has gone smoothly so far. Great customer service. I hope to get strong enough to need the next weight expansion so I can get more of their stuff.

I researched dumbbells for quite a while wanting to find the best adjustable ones out there. I watched numerous videos and read up on all of the offerings out there. When I came across the Ironmaster, I really liked the fact that they are made of metal and nothing else--that fact was the key point for me as well as price for the weight provided.
Having used them for a few weeks, I find they are easy to use, easy to adjust, and feel very close to the normal octagonal dumbbells you find at the gym. I like the knurling which is not too much and not too little.
It takes a few seconds longer than the dial-a-weight dumbbells but the trade off is plastic somewhere in the unit which can eventually break. These wont.
All in all, a great set of dumbbells I will use for years to come. Once I get there, i plan on adding the expansion set.

I have a newly set up home gym that is well supplied. This dumbbell set is an important part of it and is the highest quality item in the room. These are so much better than competitor plastic dumbbells and/or weird shapes that make them hard to lift.
These however are perfect. And extremely high attention to detail--even the minor installation is easy because everything fits as it should and is durable. They feel great and are easy to change weights plates.
Plus you can upgrade further AND get a kettlebell attachment? Cmon--perfect! Great work Ironmaster!

I don't typically write a review. But this is a big purchase. It is well worth it. These dumbells feel better than any standard dumbbells I've ever used, and the square shape prevent rolling around.
The knurling is very comfortable and does it's job.
Thinking of eventually purchasing the extra 45lb per dumbell.
I would highly recommend these for a home gym. All metal components, made to be abused, ha!

Simply put, these are excellent! I really enjoy the versatility of being able to dial in the weight to get a certain rep range (i.e. weight to complete 8-12 reps/set) without having to have oodles of individual dumbbells, and the space they require. They're solidly constructed. The only slight issue with mine were two small burrs on the inside of the handle plates. I just sanded them smooth and fixed it. The handles themselves feel exceptional due to the knurling used. These are now my go-to dumbbells, as they feel superb in my hands.
Freeman Linde (Wisconsin) | August 10th, 2023
These are an investment, but they are worth their weight. They are totally solid, and I believe they will last a lifetime. I'll get the upgrade kits soon.
Anthony Anderson (Georgia (United States)) | August 8th, 2023
These are my first weights that I've ever owned and to say I'm satisfied is an understatement. These are worth the price from the material being real iron; To the paint and design; and to the ease of use. The price of these weights is more than fair for what you get and I can already tell they will last for a long time. Not to mention all the add ons you can get insetad of having to search for other options. As I grow in my journey I will definitely be brand loyal to Ironmaster.
Kevin (New Hampshire) | July 30th, 2023
These dumbbells are my first my real piece of home gym equipment and I cannot recommend them enough. It's incredibly easy to adjust the weight, the knurling feels great, and they actually feel like dumbbells when used during various exercises.
Cory (Michigan) | July 28th, 2023
These dumbbells feel great and get the job done! So far the quality seems excellent. I wish I had bought a set sooner! Will be buying the 120lb extension set when the time comes. Worth every cent
Glen (Missouri) | July 17th, 2023
I'm glad I didn't spend the same amount on plastic junk. I'm really loving these dumbbells.
Brian (Phoenix, AZ) | June 30th, 2023
Just got my dumbbells the other day and I'm very pleased. I live in Phoenix, so I need equipment that can handle the heat. These should do very well, no plastic! easy to use and definitely worth the money!
James Weaver (NY) | June 26th, 2023
First off, these things are built tough. The knurled handles feel comfortable in your hands and honestly these feel just as good as real DB’s. I also got the 120lb extension kit to go along with them. Best purchase I’ve made in a long time.
Anna | June 12th, 2023
I wanted adjustable dumbbells so they didn’t take up a ton of space: did lots of research and I’m thrilled with them. They are made to last. No plastic parts that might break or overly complicated bells and whistles - just solid, well-designed engineering. Love that they are square so you can put them down and have them stay put. Worth the investment as I know we’ll have them for years and years.
Craig (CA) | June 12th, 2023
Like many others I spent a lot of time reviewing adjustable dumbbell sets. And in the end, I'm really happy with the purchase. My Ironmaster dumbbells are high quality, easy to use, requires minimal storage space, and the 75lb set is the enough weight for almost all of my endeavors. These are the perfect adjustable dumbbells for any garage gym.
Andrew (Mn) | May 13th, 2023
I was considering a lot of different adjustable dumbbells before getting these. Many of then used plastics, internal gears that could give out, docking stations that are required just to adjust weight, and many more complicated and silly designs. But these were simple and had the normal dumbbell feel.
I like that the construction is all metal material, and I don't have to worry about parts breaking because of a drop (haven't dropped them yet, I'm confident they'll be fine). Some videos I have seen talk about it being slower to change weights, but its not slow at all. I keep my plates organized so changing plates is quick and the pin design makes it even easier to remove or add plates. Also, the flat bottom is very comfortable when you got to rest it on your thighs.
Makes my garage gym complete.

The ironmaster adjustable dumbbells are fantastic. They are all metal which really makes them feel durable compared to others with lots of plastic components. All dumbbells pieces and weights were shipped with proper protection so everything arrived in good condition (surprising how many expensive companies don't protect their shipped product).
Only had the dumbbells for a month so far, but they have worked great. Really like the fact that they feel like regular dumbbells and it feels normal to do dumbbells exercises with them. Will update review if anything changes my opinion as I use them over the coming months to years.

On the one hand, I wish these weren't so expensive. On the other, the material and production quality is such that I expect these dumbbells to become a family heirloom fought over in wills for generations to come. No plastic to be found!
The knurled handles and the size increase with weight (rather than weird protrusions or other compromises) are the other things I considered after the quality. The idea that I can extend the set to add more weight or switch to using a kettlebell handle is a nice added bonus.

Jesse (MI) | April 6th, 2023
Excellent adjustable dumbbell. Very solid construction. Fit and finish of handles, weight plates and locks is top notch. Ability to add weight in the future is a huge advantage over other adjustable dumbbells.
David westerholm (Iowa) | April 6th, 2023
I really love these dumbells. Great product, very well made works great for me needs. What I love about them is they are mo bigger than they need to be so you don't have extra bar length hanging out on the ends, you can keep them close to your body
Dane Rader (Kansas) | March 28th, 2023
These are some of the best dumbbells' I have ever worked with. I love the size of these dumbbells', they feel similar to dumbbells' from a commercial gym and do not feel "blocky" or awkward like some other brands of adjustable dumbbells' have tried in my experience. There is no wobble while you are using them and after about 2-3 workouts of getting used to changing the weights, I could change the weight to whatever I needed in 30-60 seconds so perfect during rest periods and that has only gotten faster with more experience. Overall I would say if you want an adjustable set of dumbbells' that can be thrown around and will outlive you, then these are the perfect dumbbells' for you.
Nathan Corbett (South Carolina) | March 16th, 2023
This is an awesome set. Fast set to make changes (Not plastic fast, but no plastic to break either. Upgraded from P. Blocks and not looking back. I always felt restricted with the exercises and your hand in a cage with the Power Blocks. I also can never force myself to invest this much money into a plastic DB Set. Sooner or later you will drop the plastic ones and they will break. Not to mention that if you lift in the winter and in an unheated garage. the plastic will become even more brittle.
Great job, Ironmaster.
Great job, Ironmaster.
Scott H. (NC) | February 28th, 2023
I was looking for the right set of dumbbells for my garage gym. I'd been making due with bands and bare plates since I set up my gym during COVID but that situation wasn't the best for results. Based on the reviews here and on YT from the well known reviewers I decided to go with the Ironmasters plus the heavy handle kit, 120# Add-On set and a Kettlebell. I really couldn't be happier. The overall quality is really good but the details stand out. The knurl and grip diameter is just about perfect and changing plates is quick and easy enough. The square shape lets me use them as push-up handles and the fact I can drop them if needed is a huge plus. Also, the flat ends make resting them on my thighs comfortable. If you need a set of DBs that go heavier than 75-80# and can be dropped these are definitely the correct choice.
Johnson (Colorado) | February 27th, 2023
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! It doesn't take up much space, easy to assemble, easy to add and remove weight, you can do any movement just like with regular gym dumbells, and they feel like regular dumbells. I couldn't be more happy with my purchase!
KR (California) | February 27th, 2023
Have had them for only a few weeks but so far they're great. Quality seems good - they're super solid and there's no jiggle on the plates if you've properly tightened the screw. The time to change weights is, as expected, longer than other options where you twist a knob, but it's not prohibitively long and works well as a rest between sets. The only issue i could see is if you'd like to do circuit exercises - then the adjustment time would be an issue. Otherwise the adjustment mechanism is super easy. Overall a great product.
Marc (Quebec, Canada) | February 11th, 2023
I did my homework before buying adjustable dumbbells and I decided to go with IRONMASTER. Very sturdy and durable product! I strongly recommend.
Gregg Benson (Texas) | February 6th, 2023
Absolutely love these dumbbells. I went with Iron Master because I wanted adjustable dumbbells I could drop and would last forever. I’ve been using these for a solid month and I’m fairly certain they will last through the apocalypse. I’m not sure how rust-free they will be after a few summers in the Houston humidity, but I’m confident. I wouldn’t hesitate thr pull the trigger on these again. Oh, and the stand is top notch as well - be sure to get that for your setup.
ROnak Mukhopadhyay (GA) | January 18th, 2023
Perfect product for those who value quality & invest in their fitness / health. These have a great feel that mimics traditional DBs. The quick-lock is secure and I have no concerns about equipment failure during the middle of difficult sets. They also fit in my very small footprint home gym, and are invaluable for providing much needed exercise variety. Simply fantastic, and looking forward to getting strong enough to need the heavier expansion!
Ryan (Hercules, CA) | January 15th, 2023
I bought these after debating whether to buy the twist-adjust DBs that adjust instantly and I'm very happy with my decision. These DBs feel like you're lifting a solid piece of metal because there's no movement whatsoever between the plates. There's a lifetime guarantee but I'm not worried at all that these will break.
Changing the plates is fast but not instant. The only thing you can't do is a drop set. However, you can combine these with other equipment to do a super set. Rest assured though that you can easily change the weights in time between traditional sets.
The "plate math" is super simple and there's plenty of room on the PRO stand to keep all of the weights that come in this set (2 stacks of 5 lb plates and 1 stack of 2.5 lb plates). You can also increment the weight by 2.5 lbs by adding an extra 2.5 lb. plate to one side (twist-adjust DBs increment by 5 lbs).
I highly recommend the heavy plate handle kit to improve the balance. It makes the lightest weight 20 lbs but because it improves the feel, I think it's worth it to get it and buy 15 lb. DBs if you need them.
These are the best adjustable DBs you can buy. They can expand to more weight than you can ever lift and you'll feel like you're pumping iron instead of a toy or gadget.

These dumbbells are beasts. The quicklock system is much more stable than camlock style dumbbells and the plate design makes for a very compact package. While they tend to get long as they get heavier, that length isn't a hindrance as it allows the weights to be slim, giving a better range of motion than variable dumbbells using larger plates.
