BalanceFrom Dumbbell Set, Pairs of 5 lb, 10 lb, 15 lb, and 20 lb

I purchased this set with the 550lb large set of dumbbells. These are pretty decent for the price. The weights are not to a calibrated weight so if you was looking for dumbbells with the exact weight less /- 1lb these are not the DBs for you. When I received mine I ended up receiving 3 individual 35lb dbs and 1 40 lb db. I had to call in a return because unlike these review the items were not individual. So put in the return, All items were individually packed, so I returned the extra 35 lb dumbbell after talking with the customer service rep. I sent the item back and I was told I would receive a replacement with a couple days. Well a couple days passed I didn't receive anything. Call Monday the next week, I was given the run around and was told he would look into it. No change again, I think a one point I chatted with someone through their help chats system, not sure how i might have done that. By this time is was the holidays so I wait until that was over called again, was told they were going to elevate the ticket. Its been nearly 4 full weeks since my original return was processed by this time. So I go over everything again, and I see the working on the return "Pair". Got to thinking how am i supposed to return a pair when that is what I was missing. So I decided to, with my own money $40, send the 40lb db back to the same place the first dumbbell. Well there it goes I get an email saying the return has now been received. So now its been a week since they have received both dumbbells and 35lb dumbbell and a 40 lb dumbbell and its new item has not shipped yet. By this time and the money I spend to ship the 40 lb dumbbell I could have just ordered 40lb dumbbell set and been dome with it. The 5lb - 20lb DB sets are fine. Smells like oil but I can live with that.

There's 2 point of views for this purchase. Poor quality for what you're paying and if you're just an average Joe trying to get your workouts in without the worry of quality. Hear me out. What I mean is this weights WILL come with the oils from the factory. YOU have to clean it with a dish soap and a rag and some have little dents and sometimes material sticking out. I'll attach pictures. The second POV is IF you don't mind all the things mentioned in the first then this for the price is a steal. If you had CAP dumbbells before then this doesn't compare to those. I attached a comparison between CAP and these. In my opinion the material sticking out is not acceptable as it can lead to cuts. This is also machined finished not chrome plated (if stated by company)
