The PowerFlow X is the cheapest way onto this list, but read the unit carefully: the $179.99 sale price buys one dumbbell, not a pair. That single dumbbell slides between six weight levels from 5 to 55 lbs using a slide-and-lock selector, and the plates dock back into a rack. One dumbbell works for goblet squats, single-arm rows, swings and step-ups, so it can make sense as a first purchase for a renter who mainly trains legs and back. For presses and curls you will want two, which brings the cost to about $360 on sale and removes most of the price advantage. With only six levels, the jumps are large, and buyers on Lifepro's page say they would like 2.5 lb steps. Lifepro offers a lifetime warranty, 30-day returns and free shipping.
