Review on Get Fit With RitFit Rubber Encased Hex Dumbbell Sets - Upgrade Your Home Gym Today! by Jeremy Hong

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good dumbbells, terrible smell

It's a well made 35lb dumbbell, as advertised. What they didn't advertise was the ungodly stench these things put off. Listen, any vinyl rubber product you get is going to off-gas some at first when it's new, but this? It smells like someone took a dump truck full of wet cigarette butts and dumped it onto a raging tire fire. I can smell them from across the room and so have them relegated to the hall closet until I deem the smell is fit to put them into my bedroom. I'm still giving it 4 stars because I know the smell is going to go away over time, I just wish they had done something in the manufacturing to make the initial smell a bit less atrocious.

Pros
  • Good weights, great customer service
Cons
  • The dumbbells may not be suitable for individuals with limited storage space in their home gym
