Our Take
The Merax Adjustable Dumbbell Set offers two dumbbells adjustable up to 24kg each, targeting home gym users who want a space-saving alternative to a full dumbbell rack. It sits firmly in the budget-to-mid-range bracket, appealing to beginners and intermediate lifters who train at home but don't want to commit to premium selector-dial pricing.
Key Features
Each dumbbell adjusts across multiple weight increments up to 24kg
Uses a sliding pin or twist-lock selector mechanism to change weight plates
Plates and handle housed in a storage tray that keeps them organised between sets
Handle features a textured, knurled-style grip for security during lifts
Total combined weight of 48kg across both dumbbells
Compact footprint compared with storing individual fixed dumbbells
Our Verdict
A sensible buy for home gym beginners or intermediate lifters on a modest budget who want versatility without the clutter of fixed weights. If you're regularly pressing or rowing beyond 24kg, or want near-instant weight changes, you'll quickly outgrow it and should consider investing in a premium selectorised set.
