The directions sucked. The rack is what you are looking for.
By AG on Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2024
The instructions could have been way better. You do figure it out once you start building it. Tools to build came with it. Don't tighten it all the way until it's all completely put together. I kept thinking I was good, and kept having to loosen it. The rack is sturdy. The weights have to sit over the top lip, but it does hold them from sliding off. I haven't had any fall. See photo. It's a good size and will hold 600lbs total. It holds the 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 plus more space. It only came with the 25lbs weights. I ordered the other ones separately. They all came with a oil on them I had to wash off. Probably to keep the plastic from drying out, but it was gross. The frame was not too bad by itself. The rack and the weights were in the box too. If you move the box, I recommend taking the 25lb weights out first.

Cancer in bag, the single WORST experience in my entire life, I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND!
By Gabe J on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2024
DO NOT BUY FROM THESE PEOPLE! Just DONT DO IT IF YOU CARE AT ALL ABOUT TOUR HEALTH! I haven’t been the same since exposure to these wet chemicals this company delivered to me like a wrapped Christmas present of death! When I opened up the package with the A frame and 25s I was immediately immersed in the most horrific smell of my entire life. The amount of toxic chemicals I inhaled were probably more than I would in my entire life. The 25s were in plastic and then in a Saran Wrap type of bag that was “WET!” Yes, wet with chemicals that spewed out onto my brand new $2k flooring in my garage, that took me a LONG time to save up for and personally install! I honestly don’t know why I didn’t go for gloves at this point. I was suffering from an extreme headache that has yet to go away 24 hrs later. I feel nauseous, tired and exhausted since I inhaled even a whiff of this GARBAGE! One of the 25 dumbbells was OBVIOUSLY defective but these people slapped it in a bag and sent me a bag full of cancer like a freaking gift wrapped death certificate. I’m so furious with this manufacturer and supplier of this CRAP. I can’t believe what I’m actually going through a full day after exposure to toxic chemicals and substances! How anyone could wrap up WET chemicals on dumbbells and deliberately deliver them to actual people trying to be healthy, is BAFFLING! It goes to show just how far we’ve fallen as a society, nation and a people in general. How we as a nation who are more health conscience than any time in history, are making this stuff, is beyond me. I should have known not to try to save a little bit of money when it comes to my over all health care concerns. I’ve thought a lot about what to write about this experience. I knew that a small amount of smell always comes from any rubber/plastic product. But this was not a smell. It was a baggy, wet, slurping gob of death that was all over my skin and LITERALLY POURED out of one of the bags. Luckily I have faith that God will definitely hold people accountable for their deliberate actions. This is NOT A COMPANY THAT HAS HEALTH ANYWHERE IN THEIR CONSCIENCE! It’s all the bottom dollar on cheap, cancer causing chemicals to make a buck OFF OF PEOPLE TRYING TO BE HEALTHY! IMO the worst of the worst. The funny part is they tried to give it to me for cheaper? OMG you make this stuff up! They couldn’t have PAID ME TO KEEP THIS CRAP ANYWHERE NEAR MY HOUSE AND MY FAMILY! I hope nothing but the worst for this business and hope it meets bankruptcy asap and these people are held accountable for their despicable actions. Buy steel or buy plastics from companies who actually care about their customers!

Great quality product. Would've been helpful to have instructions for rack assembly, but I figured it out by looking at the image online.

Good Quality

Overall good experience with these weights.
Quality of rack is nice, dumbbell is greasy / smells/ peeling
By Thomas - Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2024

I purchased this set and rack on Black Friday for $56. The deal was unbeatable however the dumbbells are greasy and have a smell to them you can smell as soon as you open the box. I read online equipment is usually covered in a protective coating for shipment. The dumbbells also look larger than the average 25lb dumbbell. But that’s my opinion. I haven’t weighed them. The rubber covering on dumbbells started to peel while I was wiping off the grease. It left residue on my hands so be aware of that. The rack didn’t come with instructions but it’s pretty easy to assemble and sturdy. as long as you know you have to use both wrenches while tightening the lock screws! One wrench on the screw and one wrench on the nut.
Ignore all the negative reviews. They are not for the colorful weights, only the black ones.

I absolutely LOVE this weight set! The colors are so fun and motivating! These weights are high quality and have zero issues. All of the negative reviews are for black weights which seems to change sizing specs at some point causing two different weights to be received.
Just as descripted, good value for the money

The only thing to be aware of, the tools sent for assembly do not fit the hardware. Make sure you have an adjustable wrench or set of sockets 13mm x 2.
Be ready for a whirlwind of difficult

Let me start by saying I ordered this as a set. For $240 (not exactly cheap) I ordered a set that came with: the two tier rack, and weights: 10s, 15s, 20s, 25s, and 30's. When I ordered the set it was "in stock" and "prime delivery" for in a couple days. Well. A month passed and i received nothing. I contacted Amazon and they told me they had not shipped because the carrier is probably "out of stock" and will send once the items are available. FINALLY a package was delivered TWO MONTHS after I ordered the set. BUT IT WAS JUST THE SET OF 30 LB WEIGHTS! I looked it up and realized that they were sending THREE separate packages. One with the 30's, one with the rack and the 25's, and then one package with the rest of the weights. I understand they are probably too heavy to all ship all together- but at least send all the packages at once or let me know that is what is going to happen. SO, I waited more. And FINALLY the rack was delivered with the 25's. NEARLY ANOTHER MONTH LATER. (Now it has almost been 3 months since first ordering this set.) HOWEVER, IT WAS THE WRONG RACK. I had ordered the 2 tier rack and the carrier sent me the A framed rack. Which I wanted the 2 tier so i can eventually fit more weights AND it was more expensive. So, i had to return them. UPS wouldn't take them because Amazon only gave me one return slip- but the weights came in a separate box, so i needed 2 slips or was going to have to pay for a 50 pound package. I finally get amazon to send me another slip. Return the rack. They almost immediately sent me the new and RIGHT one. Which i appreciated. I don't understand why it took over 2 months to get the wrong one and then i received the right one right away? Keep in mind- i am almost 9 months pregnant and trying to return all this stuff twice. Carrying all this heavy equipment. Patience running thin. ALSO when the rack got here it had NO instructions. I had to just figure out how to assemble it. It took hours. There were metal "hang nails" in some of the holes where screws went, that kept screws from fitting through the holes. So. I had to get a LIGHTER AND HOLD IT TO THE METAL TO TRY AND MELT AND BEND BACK THE BLOCKAGE. And now. Here I am. Waiting to receive the rest of my weights (which are the lighter weights i will probably ACTUALLY be using.) And it has been 3 months since i initially bought this set. It sucks. I really wanted these. I wish the company would at least get in contact with me. I am about to pop out a baby and I do not just have 240 dollars to mess around with. Super frustrated by this whole process. Honestly not worth it or the price. I will keep what I have and what i am waiting for- it IS good quality and I have put SO much time into this now. But please spare yourself and buy from a different company.
Great value!

I’m very happy with this purchase! Will warn they do smell like chemicals when you first open and there was a yellowish, oily residue on the weight. I used a towel to clean them off initially and then did not place on anything without a towel for the first couple months. Other than that, these are fantastic value
Missing the 25 lb dumbells and also received an extra item I didn't order
By Marc - Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2024

I liked that I got the dumbell rack which was not too hard to assemble and it had all the parts BUT there was one very major error. The Rubber Encased Hex 25lb Dumbbells were completely missing. On the day that the whole package was supposed to be delivered, I received two boxes that were the same size and on that day I was thinking that in one box was the dumbell rack and in the other was the 25 lb dumbells...but when I opened the two packages later that day I found that yes, there was in fact a dumbell rack in one of the boxes but in the other box was NOT the 25 lb dumbells, instead there was a second rack for dumbells, and I am 100% certain that I didn't order an extra dumbell rack, what I ordered was the "Signature Fitness Rubber Encased Hex Dumbbell (25 lb dumbells) with Rack" (Quantity: 1) And the only thing that I was able to get resolved was with the extra item (the second dumbell rack). I was only able to return the extra item I didn't order but I was not able to resolve the issue of the missing 25lb Dumbbells and believe I really tried to get that resolved.
