These are decent weights - carry case arrived damaged, it was replaced for us - the weights themselves are solid and easy to handle.
Caveat: a 40 pound set is not much weight - I figured it would be plenty for me as I'm just getting into this, but actually my wife's outgrown them as well.
Thing is, the bar weighs 5 pounds, you get 15 pounds of assorted weight for each of the two bars, total 40 pounds, this allows you to set up from 5 to 20 pound dual dumbbells or a single up to 35 pounds - not quite enough to get there from here.
Plan on adding a few more 5 pounder or 10 pounders to it, is all - they are available separately so no big deal. I've set these bars up with 65 pounds of weights with no problem using 10 pounders.
The bars are good quality and have rubber washers to lock the weights in place.
For some exercises the 14 inch bars get in the way compared to simple hex dumbbells, and it does take a while to change weights between moves, but it's tolerable, especially compared to blowing $500 on adjustable weights with plastic adjustment tabs, no less.
For the price, keep a couple sets around - you get more versatility in weight, and you get the ability to set up 2 sets for yourself at a time - allowing quicker workouts at the weight of your choosing without investing in a zillion separate dumbbells.
Would definitely do again.

It's your basic Chinese-made slide-on dumbbell set. The vendor shipped quickly, and the case arrived undamaged. One of the two bars is about 1/8" longer than the other, making it a little more difficult to insert back into the case. That bar also didn't have the two rubber washers on each end of the handle that the other bar did, making the weight plates harder to snug up and more 'clangy' (is that a word?). Easily fixed with a trip to the hardware store and the purchase of a few 1" ID O-rings. Knocked off one star for my gas costs.
As another reviewer states, having a few more weight plates around is convenient. I bought an extra four 10# plates on sale at the local sports store. Any standard 1" ID plate will work. The total cost of this set plus the extra plates was still less than 1/4 the cost of an adjustable set, and suits my needs just fine.

The quality is what you expect. They are your basic set of dumbbells. The carrying case will likely get damaged in shipment. Mine had a dented corner and broken latch.
But the case would be the least of my worries. Like the other reviewer, mine came with an incredibly strong gasoline scent and the bars are covered in this oily slightly sticky... substance. It leaves your hands smelling of gas even after a couple washes.

Cap Barbell 40-Pound Dumbbell Set
Cap Barbell 40-Pound Dumbbell Set. They smell weird out of the box. Had to wash them down with soap to get rid of it... Otherwise, exactly as it expected. No more, no less.

Spinning the starts for drop sets is difficult so I had to go out and get more free weights, but these are good for slower paced work outs.

Excellent set for the price.
Great holding case.
My boyfriend and I can both use these because of the variance in weights.
I am truly satisfied with this purchase.

good purchase for the price
Its good. But if you want more lbs to work with, such as 40lbs individual dumbell, while working simultaneously, this will not fulfill your appetite. It's only 20lbs each. Read more

Love the Weights.
This is a terrific value especially for the price and the amount of weight you get. The case is nice and the weights are easy to switch out.

I love them.
I don't think they smell funny either. I feel results off of them already. I'm a bit weak though so I kinda wish that the case had two handles
