Our Take
The PowerBlock Pro 50 is a selector-style adjustable dumbbell set replacing multiple fixed weights in a single compact unit. Each dumbbell adjusts up to 50 lb (approximately 22.7 kg), with expansion kits available to increase capacity. Aimed at serious home gym users who want genuine training versatility without the footprint of a full rack.
Key Features
Weight range of 2.5 lb to 50 lb per dumbbell, adjustable in 2.5 lb increments at the lighter end
Magnetic selector pin system allows rapid weight changes between sets
Expandable design: compatible with PowerBlock add-on kits to reach higher weight ceilings
Steel plates housed within a urethane-padded rectangular frame, reducing floor damage risk
Compact storage footprint — both dumbbells fit on the included stand (sold separately)
Open-centre handle design accommodates a range of grip widths
Our Verdict
A sensible investment for dedicated home gym users who train across a broad rep range and need space efficiency above all else. Those who lift heavy regularly may quickly outgrow the base weight limit, and anyone bothered by unconventional handle geometry should try before buying.
