Hey, I've decided I'm in the market for a good adjustable Dumbbell and good Kettlebell set. I just don't have the space for more solid dumbbell/kettlebells.

I'm just looking for what people here have and what brands people like/don't like?

Right now I'm eyeing Powerblocks or Snode. I'm looking for adjustables up to 70 lbs minimum.
 
We have some power block dumbbells that are pretty good. I have no idea about the kettlebells, seems like that could really hurt when doing snatches, TGUs and cleans.
 
I got a good deal on a used 90lb powerblock pair, just needed to buy new pins. Deals are out there on used equipment if you are patient. Not all sets are expandable, so pay attention to that. I completely agree being able to get them to 70 lbs or more.

I hadn't really used powerblocks until these, and they really do everything I need of them. People have complaints about the form factor and the support bars, but i just don't find it to be much of an issue. These are super simple and durable. The extra cost savings of finding some used was worth the tradeoff.
 
They are very expensive, but the SMRTFT nuobells are extremely nice. Can regularly find them on sale for $200 off. So fast an easy to adjust. I do circuit workouts so that was huge for me.

I have a set of Iron Master dumbbells and like them. They also have a KB that is adjustable. I went with a set of adjustable KBs from Titan Fitness. I wish I had gone with the Iron Master KBs.
 
I have the old-school Powerblock Urethane with the expansion up to 70lbs. I have been looking for the next expansion up for years, (not very serious looking but every once in a while I search) and they are not easy to find. If you are buying an older set, they work great still, but do not count on being able to get an expansion after the fact.
 
I have power blocks. EXP I think. Mines are only up to 70.. haven’t got into the need for the 90 expansion set. I did full body workouts with only dumbbells. Though I haven’t touched them in a few years lol. Job changes and switching to graveyard shift has messed up my schedule and sleep. I also got a set of 10, 15, & 30 as I use those often for the various workouts I do.

A guy I work with uses the Bowflex ones and says they're great. It looks like they make a set up to 52lbs and one to 90lbs.
I plan to get a set eventually. I haven't looked into any others yet.
