This seems like a really great deal, anyone want to share their experience with it?
Those from a gym/weight lifting background tend to have mixed/low opinion on them.
Those from a work out at home/limited space background like them for their convenience.
I've had mine for a number of years and am happy with them. There are a few things that are difficult to do with them, but they suffice for 80-90% of typical dumbbell use.

If this is your first dumbbell it's not bad. If you have the option between this and powerblocks, powerblocks are the way to go. Bowflex can have issues getting stuck, lots of moving plastic parts which can break. Top tier adjustable dumbbells are ironmasters but those are as convenient as powerblocks.
I've owned ironmasters since 2013 and they have held up, use them ~3-5 times a week, at that time they were $500 and such a great steal. The price now is almost double ($869 + shipping).

Here is the Powerblock EXP Stage 1 Pair, so ~$200 per https://www.dickssporti
Powerblocks you can add on the expansion sets, so Stage 2 will bring you to 70 lbs per dumbbell and stage 3 90lbs.
Powerblocks are my recommendation if you're looking for convenience of an adjustable dumbbell similar to bowflex without the moving parts
