Been wanting to buy these for years! Finally got them and I’m not disappointed! They’re a bit clunky and large but that’s expected!! Makes my workouts so much more efficient being able to switch weights for different muscle groups! Recommend!
Bought these 2 years ago now initially I was thinking they wouldn’t last this long for the price but I was wrong. I’ve used these dumbbells 3-5 times a week for the last 2 years with no problems 10/10 would recommend only problem now is I need the heavier version.
Great Product and very convenient. I am confident they will last me years to come. Only issue is if you are doing press ups and ands are on weights, which kept digging into my wrists. I would say 4.5 stars and avoid that exercise

I have been using these dumbbells for a couple of weeks now and I am really happy with them. The only reason I haven’t given them 5 stars (Should be 4.5 stars) is that the first time I used them a couple of weights fell off. I am convinced this was my (user) error by not selecting the weight properly and making sure the pin was in place correctly before I started the exercise.
They arrived promptly and they were packaged really well which was the one thing I was worried about because of their overall weight.
There are issues to these dumbbells that are subject to individual preference: the first is the stand that they come in. The recess for the discs to slide into is too shallow in my opinion. It means that the discs can move around and can make it difficult to slide the dumbbell back in after use.
The other issue is that the discs, although secure when selected, they rattle during set movements. I personally don’t like this and it’s why I love hex dummies, but for space saving you can’t beat the selectors.
Update:
A couple months later the plastic selector that holds the weight in place has snapped off resulting in the plates falling out and landing on my foot. I contacted ATIVAFIT support and they were not interested. Avoid at all costs.
The weights a great – although bare in mind they’re not actually adjustable in 2.5kg increments, it’s actually 3kg increments (2kg > 5 > 8 > 11 > 14 > 17 > 20kg).
I bought these for 240 but before they were delivered they were put on offer to 204. I emailed the seller saying I would send them for a refund and order again but they happily refunded the difference to save me the hassle and always responded within 24 hours so I would thoroughly recommend.
Great value for money as you get 25kg on an adjustable dumbbell. The downside is because they are adjustable and have to carry 25kg of weight, the dumbbells are very wide. This means it makes it more difficult to do certain exercises together, for example dumbbell curls. Because they are so wide they clash if you use them both at the same time, so you have to be careful
It’s a small gripe, otherwise they are very good quality dumbbells and very easy to swap between weights.
I was drawn to this as it seemed much more reasonably priced compared to the competition as well as looking very smart.
The way it works is the stand is designed to hold the extra weight that you aren’t using.
Simply slide the dial along to the weight that you want and lift the dumbbell out.
I’ve added a video and some photos as it may be hard for people to grasp how it works.
What is great about this is that it doesn’t take up too much room compared to perhaps the traditional triangular set up with different weights.
As it is so innovative you have 7 different weights all on one compact size. This means it is beneficial for people with different weight preferences or to progressively move up the weight range.
It is nicely balanced when in use too and doesn’t jiggle about or anything like that.
I’m really impressed with it as it provides a great weight set that doesn’t take up too much room in my small flat.
It takes a little getting used to changing the weight but once you know what to do it is easy and quick to change. The tray in which this dumbbell sit on it well fitted and useful.
I think wife and I will be be cancelling the gym long-term and just aim to get the odd gym equipment for home with the savings. Our longer term plan it to build a small exercise frame outside with a small sheltered area.
