Should I buy the Lifecore Corebell 5-55-Pound Adjustable Dumbbell System?
Good product. Great service
When I received this dumbbell, the box had been dropped and the selector damaged. Amazon would have exchanged it, but I contacted Lifecore instead. They were very helpful. They sent a part out to me right away and it was easy to change out (3 min). I have enjoyed the set. I really like being able to increase the weight at 2.5lb increments. I'm 51 years old and not able to progress at 5 or 10 lb increments like the young guys. Hey, I least I'm exercising. The only downside of the product it that many of the parts are plastic. However, as long as you drop the weight back into the holder straight, it should last long. Perhaps a lifetime. It appears the young guys like to drop their weights. It likely won't take much of that abuse. However, I pay for all the flooring replacement in my house, so I set things down gently. :)
One other issue is that the selector moves rather quickly and often over-shoot your desires weight selection. This results in having to move the selector back and forth until you stop at the right number. A tip on resolving this is to put you thumb by the desired stop, then move the selector to your thumb. You stop at the desired weight number every time. This method also dramatically reduced the wear on the mechanism.
Every type of adjustable weights has their issue. It comes down to the cost quality tradeoff. If I paid $1500, I'd expect a lifetime warranty. But that would mean I purchase 25 separate dumbbells with a big stand.
Other adjustables have issues too. ---flex reviews say that the plastic mechanism keeps breaking. ---block has 5 or 10 lb increment and you have to put your hand inside the unit. Etc, etc.
Now I'm very happy with the set.
Great product
This product arrived in good time, and in good condition. It is also a great product to have around for your workout routine. I have no regrets, and would recommend it to anyone.
Cheaply made, yes but serve the purpose at a good price
It's true the adjustment mechinism is cheaply made and could brake if not carefull. On the other hand if you are carefull and push on both sides of the adjustment switch, I don't foresee it braking. I have used for about 4 months now and glad I bought them. I am sure the bowflex are better but I don't think $200 better. I got these on Deal of the Day and for the price I would definately buy these over bowflex again.
highly recommended
This is a great product if you like lifting but have a limited space for it.
I recommend it.
This will replace all your dumbbells!
This set is awesome!! It has replaced my 25lb, 35lb, and 50lb dumbbell sets seamlessly. I live in a small apartment and am always looking for ways to save space, and this set fit the bill. I am not sure about the negative reviewers, perhaps they received defective sets, but mine is my favorite piece of strength training equipment!
