A pair of dumbbells with a ‘super’ neoprene grip, in sizes from 1kg to 5kg, have been hailed by users as ‘ideal for training’ at home. Amazon Basics neoprene dumbbell pairs come in five sizes – 1kg (£10.79), 1.5kg (£12.14), 2kg (£14.39), 3kg (£17.99), 4kg (21 £.59) and 5kg (£25.19).
The Amazon Basics Neoprene Dumbbell Pair comes as a set of two dumbbells for weight training and they are covered with a grippy neoprene coating for a secure grip. The weights are printed with their weight number on each end and are color coded for quick identification.
Amazon Basics neoprene dumbbell pairs are made with a hexagonal shape that prevents dumbbells from rolling away. They are described as ideal for training sessions or home exercise routines. The dumbbells are made exclusively for Amazon and are not available in other high street stores.
One satisfied customer wrote: “These are just the right weight for me and are ideal for training. They are comfortable to hold and are very attractive. The price is also very reasonable.”
Another added: “I’ve just started trying weight training… I originally bought 5kg to work out at home and I could only do a few exercises because I couldn’t do a range of motion because I’m really so weak. I bought 2kg for to give myself a fighting chance.
But not everyone was a fan. One person wrote: “Not worth buying. The dumbbells were 100-125 grams less than 2kg and the two dumbbells weighed 100 grams different from each other.”
