About this product
The Athletic Works 40lb adjustable dumbbell set offers a 5-in-1 design, allowing you to select different weights from a single pair. Made of steel with a black finish, these dumbbells are built for weight lifting. Each set includes two units, providing a total of 40 lbs adjustable weight. A budget-friendly option for home gyms.
Our take
At $53, this Athletic Works set is about as cheap as adjustable dumbbells get. The 5-in-1 system lets you change weights by moving a pin, which is straightforward. Steel construction feels okay for the price, but the plastic components (like the weight plates and handle) don't inspire confidence. The item diameter is listed as 'Plastic,' which is concerning for longevity. For light to moderate use, it's fine, but I wouldn't drop these or go too heavy. The adjustment mechanism can be stiff at first. If you're on a tight budget and need versatility, it works, but expect trade-offs in build quality. The 40 lb total is enough for basic exercises.
