I was hesitant buying these because of the price, but now that I have them I am very happy with them. It's not recommended, but you can adjust these in 5lb increments (with all of the weighs just as secure as always) you just have to compensate for the weight being off balance (which is easily done by gripping closer to the heavy side). They adjust quickly and easily and are well made. All of the important pieces are metal unlike many of the more expensive brands. They work well with P90X. These can be easily stored away and are much cheaper than a full weigh set.
The only drawback I can think of is that they are a little large for some exercises (not that you can't do the exercise, just that you have to be more mindful of their position) This is not a problem when using the full 50lbs because they are not much larger than a 50lb dumbbell, but when you are only using 10-20 lbs they are much larger than what I was used to. I am not a body builder, but I know my way around a gym, so I can't guarantee that these will work for all of the standard dumbbell uses, but I have yet to have them not work for any of my exercises.
The bottom line is that if you have the money I recommend these, they work well for P90X, and are well built. These will last longer than I do.
