About this product
This set includes an 8lb pair of coated rubber hex dumbbells. The product is unbranded and comes in a pair configuration. Minimal specs are provided, but the title suggests a rubber coating and hex shape for stability and floor protection. Priced at $37.94, these dumbbells offer a basic option for light home fitness training.
Our take
These 8lb dumbbells are exactly what you'd expect from a basic unbranded pair. The rubber coating seems thin but does the job of reducing clanking when I set them down. The hex shape is a plus—they stay put on the floor. However, the lack of detailed specs makes me wonder about the handle quality. The knurling is almost nonexistent, so my grip can slip during sweaty sessions. For $37.94, they're okay for very light use, but I wouldn't recommend them for anything beyond beginner routines. The rubber has a chemical smell that took a few days to fade. If you need a cheap pair for occasional use, these might work, but there are better options for a few dollars more.
