This is built like a tank. Used it once in a competition. Worked just like my DIY circus dumbbell. It is expensive but otherwise as advertised.

This beefy boy is about 95 pounds empty and a very sturdy addition.

Hands down some of the best quality on the market in general. Mike does an excellent job at making things withstand taking a beating. If you can get your hands on one you’ll understand why people really enjoy Mike’s products

I own the 10" version which weighs about 75 pounds, Plate loadable and mine has the end caps, which I recommend to keep everything together (axle collars will slide). Built like a typical MBPC product, which means built to last. A premium price for a great product.

Mine is a 10” with different thickness material on the bell and not compatible with the end caps. It’s 75lbs empty, so it’s not the best option for starting out training dumbbell. The build quality is typical MBPC. Mine has been used in competition and is fine. My axle collars will come loose while doing reps. Definitely not a budget option, it’s more the buy once, cry once option.

I own both a 10" (~70lbs) and 12" (~80lbs) dumbbell without end caps. The weight pegs do not have threading to add end caps later, so because of this, my weight pegs are slightly undersized, similar to pretty much all other strongman equipment. These are incredibly beefy and have beat up plywood flooring before incurring any issues themselves. I also like the powder coat as it's grippy, so I don't need any chalk to use these. The handle on the 12" is larger than the 10", but the 12" will fit my 25lbs plates.

I own the 12” 97 lb empty version. Very beefy CDB, big con is the weight peg is oversized and won’t fit tight tolerance plates. You basically have to own junky bigger than spec hole plates to even load this. Biggest pro is its durability. Purchased used in 2025 for $400
