Epic Fitness 150-Pound Hex Dumbbell Set

This product arrived in four separate boxes, all together, and on time. I chose Epic Fitness because their dumbbell coating was PVC and did not have any tire rubber smell or oil. I was not disappointed. The Epic stand is 6 inches taller and a few inches wider than the competition making is extremely stable. I personally found the stand easy to assemble. Holes all lined up correctly. No filing holes required. Epic provided exactly the right number of bolts, washers, and nuts. No extras. They included a hex wrench, but you have to provide your own adjustable crescent wrench or a 17 mm open/box end wrench to fully tighten all the nuts. I had a small coating defect on one of the 5 pound weights and contacted the seller through Amazon. Within 24 hours they contacted me with a USPS tracking number and said the replacement dumbbell was on its way. This dumbbell set may have been $40 more than a similar set from a competitor, but for me the PVC coating, the larger/more sturdy stand, and the excellent customer service was worth it.
