The product is excellent. I mean, it's just a hand weight. No surprises there.

The part that got me was the picture is of a PAIR of weights and it didn't really say how many you were buying. I assumed one because of the price but, ya never know.

I was right. It's only one hand weight.

I mean I can't give it a one star rating because I did get A dumbell. But the way the put the product online is completely misleading. You only get one dumbell. It doesnt even specify that your only going to get one. what the hell am I going to do with one bumbell? buy this if you only need one. If your expecting two dumbells don't hold your breath. I really wanted to returned it too but only my luck would have it that I'd loose the return reciept. However that being said I did recieve the product very promptly which is what saved it from being a two

So I checked out my local Target store and they don't sell 15 LBS dumbells. They had some chrome/hard plastic one's though but we wanted Neoprene. Checked out my local DicksSportingGoods store and they did not sell 15 LBS Neoprene dumbbells either although I did have an option for the full metal version.

So, I went "Amazoning". I read the "bad reviews" and for the price yeah, it would be for one dumbbell. I needed 2 15 LBS dumbbells so I purchased a quantity of 2. The quality is great. The Neoprene feels great and has a nice hexagon shape all around. I wished these people made a 20 LBS dumbbells as I would purchase in a hurry.

TIP:

If you have prime, I would order these separate, say one day apart, so that they don't ship in the same box. I did not and the amazon box was almost destroyed with 30 LBS. The weights though were in immaculate condition regardless.

I ordered this item which is advertised as a PAIR of dumbbells, meaning there are TWO in the order. I only received one dumbbell. I called customer service, who told me they could not send me just one dumbbell to replace the one that was missing, but that they would have to send me a whole new order. Fine. I get the new order (which is supposed to be a PAIR of dumbbells again), and again it was only one. So please just know if you order this that you will not be receiving a PAIR!

The product title is very misleading...it only comes with one dumbbell. I have no idea what you're supposed to do with only one. Also, since this product isn't fulfilled by Amazon, you have to pay for return shipping. Do yourself a favor and don't buy if you're expecting a set of dumbbells.
