This set has two 3 kg dumbbells, 6 kg in total, with a solid cast iron core. The hexagonal shape prevents rolling, the soft coating helps protect the floor, and each weight measures 20 × 9 × 8.5 cm.
What we like
- Solid iron core
- Anti-roll shape
- Floor-friendly coating
Worth noting
- A fixed weight, so progress means buying a heavier pair
Buying tips
Start with a weight you can lift 10 to 12 times with good form, and buy a heavier pair once that feels easy. Hex shapes stay put on the floor, while neoprene or rubber coatings are kinder to hands and flooring. Adjustable dumbbells cost more up front but replace several pairs if space is tight.
General advice for this type of product, not a test of a specific item.
