Powerblock Personal Plus 60 Pound Adjustable Dumbbells

Advertisement

I'm almost done reviewing all of the available Powerblock Adjustable Dumbbells. This is an extremely sad moment. :( Currently, I have the Powerblock Personal Plus 60 Pound Adjustable Dumbbells listed under an non-categorized topic. I will definitely have these in a category towards the end of this month.

1) Introduction to Detailed Review: I want to go ahead and break this detailed review down into a few different categories. I want to go ahead and talk to you about the description and features, reviews and ratings, before finally giving you my personal recommendation.

1a) Description and Features:

These dumbbells have the ability to adjust weight amount between 20 and 60 pounds, in 5 pound increments. Weight amount is displayed on the front of these dumbbells in pounds, and seems to be displayed in kilograms as well.

Weight selection can be made with a selector pin, which you slide out and then slide back into the weight amount that you would like to use.

Although these are quite heavy; 60 pound per hand, they are extremely sleek and compact. Highly recommended for home gyms, and small rooms, where little space is available.

1b) Reviews and Ratings:

I am never surprised by the ratings that the Powerblocks receive. And yes, this is definitely a good thing. Based off of the 4 customer reviews that were available, an average 4.5 out of 5 star rating was shown. Here was the rating breakdown:

• 5 Star Rating: 2 Reviewers
• 4 Star Rating: 2 Reviewers
• 3 Star Rating: N/A
• 2 Star Rating: N/A
• 1 Star Rating: N/A

From what I saw, most people were extremely satisfied with these dumbbells. One person did a great job at listing some pros and cons. On the downside, this reviewer said that these dumbbells did clank while lifting. This individual also stated that inserting the selector pin while changing weight amount, could sometimes be difficult. Aside from these downsides, people said that the dumbbells worked extremely well. They were also happy to see that this product is made in the USA.

1c) Recommendation:

This is another great set of Powerblock dumbbells. There's really no doubt about that. To me though, these 60 pound weights are kind of an oddball. Personally, I would simply go small or go big. I purchased 50 pound weights and was just fine. If I ever upgrade, I will definitely be looking at some 90 pound adjustable dumbbells.

Regardless, I rate these a 4.5 out of 5 stars. If you think 60 pound weights are right for you, then you definitely can't go wrong with the Powerblock Personal Plus 60 Pound Adjustable Dumbbells.
