Accident waiting to happen!
If I could give negative stars, I would. Like many other reviewers, one of my dumbbells was falling apart right out of the box. One head of the dumbbell is not securely fastened to the handle and slips around while working out. When the head slides away from the handle, the 2.5 LB plate increments fall out. While the dumbbell head hasn't fallen off the handle completely, I don't feel like risking even a 2.5 LB plate dropping on my head while I'm doing shoulder presses. This is extremely disappointing and POTENTIALLY MORBIDLY DANGEROUS if the entire dumbbell head were to land on someone's skull. THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE RECALLED.
I would advise not wasting your cash on these hunks of garbage and spend your money on a different product that won't cause you a trip to the hospital. After reading other reviews, it sounds like the company doesn't do much in the way of customer service either, so I'm guessing I will be hauling these to the dumpster and cutting my losses. Incredibly upsetting from a NordicTrack product.
