PowerBlock Personal Plus 20 to 60-Pounds per Dumbbell Set Review

I own the Personal Block 5-45 pound set and I love them. I'm about to need a larger amount of weight so I went to the store to check out the 20 lb. handle that you can add on (same handle that comes with this set). I was very disappointed because the way they make the handle weigh 20 lbs. instead of 5 is by welding plates to the sides and bottom. The problem is that my knuckle bumps into the side plate preventing me from getting a solid grip on the handle. I was planning on adding the 20 lb. handle but I'm looking at individual dumbbells now for my higher weights.

UPDATE: I ended up purchasing a pro set (5-85 lbs. per dumbbell) from Power Blocks directly. This set comes with a set of 5 lb. handles and a set of 10 lb. handles so that you can vary the weights in 5 lb. increments. The set also came with a stand. I love them. Power Blocks are the nicest dumbbells I have seen (dollar for dollar).

Product Description
The only dumbbell system that can expand to meet your strength needs, PowerBlock dumbbells are the most versatile and effective exercise tool ever developed for strength training. PowerBlocks work intuitively. Rather than requiring you to buy a room full of dumbbells, PowerBlocks act just like a weight stack at the gym, with a weight handle that fits inside the first weight, which fits inside the second, which fits inside the third, etc. When you want to change weights, you simply move the weight selector pin into the appropriate slot and you're set. As you lift the core, all the weights above the selector pin are lifted at the same time, turning your 3-pound dumbbell into a 6-pound dumbbell, or your 6-pound dumbbell into a 12-pound dumbbell. Not only is the system remarkably easy to use, but it's also cost- and space-efficient, as a single pair of dumbbells can do the work of dozens.

This pair of Personal Plus 60x5 dumbbells, for instance, adjusts from 20 to 60 pounds in 5-pound increments (20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60 pounds), in effect doing the job of 18 individual weights. Even better, the weights are more compact and balanced than traditional dumbbells, with a padded handle that protects people with weak wrists. Best of all, the free weights are terrific whether you're trying to build muscle mass, firm and tone your physique, or get rid of unwanted body fat. The set--which is not expandable--offers a maximum weight of 60 pounds per hand and carries a limited 10-year warranty.
