takes 2 seconds to change from 3lb to __lb. Where as the Ironmasters it would take a lot longer.
I'd absolutely consider getting a set of Ironmasters--especially since they also sell a curl bar! Can't get that with Bowflex or Powerblocks. I see they also have a straight bar accessory which might also be useful for benching (the weight limit is only 210 though...).
These IMs are definitely a better buy, but changing the weight is not as simple & quick as with the Bowflex or Powerblock. And as you get into heavier weights,you will find yourself spending quite some time changing weights between exercises.
My recommendation would be to get the Powerblock U-70 or U-90 sets, depending how much max weight you aim to lift.

If you don't care for the Urethane coating & life-time warranty, then you can also look at the Sport EXP series

Edit: Also, why do I care about Urethane? Longevity?
For lady's most would recommend the powerblocks that go up to 24#, but I think the selecttech 552's would be better for you, if your husband also uses them. I really like how the 552 set goes in 2.5# increments (starting at 5) up to 25.

I've since modified the handle so it would be thinner. Better for my Trump-like hands lol
If you need a bench, people really like the ironmaster bench - you can create a custom package and get the bench, the dumbbells and the 120lb add on kit for pretty good price.
If you get the 120lb add on, I recommend calling in and ordering the extra set of handles (without screws) - makes for much easier
Also recommend some 2.5lb platemates (or a DIY set of magnetic plates) to save some time on 5lb increases.
I think these are good, not great - if you have the space, I'd vote for the fixed dumbbells.
These are the best adjustable dumbbells out there, they are more expensive than the rest at 75lbs, but with the add on kit, they are priced competitively compared to the other 120lb options.
I like these better than using a dumbbell handle + standard plates (like what Rogue recently came out with) because these are flat at the ends so much easier to go from your thighs into a bench press.

The Ironmaster straight bar I suppose you could bench with it if you find a bench with arms being narrow enough. But then it might be blocking where you put your grip.
Probably could get a way with using a normal spinlock bar instead of the one Ironmaster makes if you don't mind it spinning on your bar. That's the only difference I see with Ironmasters bar vs a normal spinlock one. I'm going to test it out later, cause now I'm wondering if that would be a nuisance to do ha.

I was looking at these even though they only go up to 55lb. Are the Ironmasters worth more than double the price of these?

My opinion:
Those looks similar to the Bowflex adjustable DB's. I would consider the weight. If you are just starting out, 55lbs might sound like plenty to work with, but there are some exercise's you will quickly max out and wish you had more. The Ironmasters can be expanded beyond the 75lbs when you are ready. I think Ironmasters are also a better investment. Take a look at craigslist and see what they sell for, you will be able to recoup a lot of your investment if you decided to sell them.

Thanks for the advice. I'm not a beginner so I'll already be maxed out on a couple exercises. I'm glad the ironmaster will be on sale until the 31st so that will give me a little more time to decide.

Anyone who's ever worked out with freeweights at the gym wouldn't be deterred by the effort involved. I've watched the videos, and the ironmaster looks like a fantastic set. 30 seconds between sets to swap weights would be a non-issue for me as I like to have at least a 1-2 minute cooldown between sets.
The Bowflex Selecttech sets are great for what they are--a little overpriced at this point, but I've noticed some improvements over the years (I've gone through 3 sets for various reasons).

It takes the guy almost a minute to change the weights. Even if you shave it off by half then it would still take longer than powerblocks. That was only 20 lbs. I can go from 10 to 70 lbs in the powerblocks in less than 10 seconds.
Like I said. I don't have these dumbbells but the system isnt convenient to me.

To answer my own question, the ironmasters have the lifetime warranty and I can also expand the weight past 75. I'm going to go ahead and get the ironmasters since they are sale. Time to get swole lol.
