ow long does it take to switch from weight to weight? Is it alot of hassle? With regular dbs its as simple as putting down the weights and picking up the others.

the price is not an issue. Im just wondering how good the performance value is

They come with a warranty that I wasn't aware of, so they actually mailed me exactly what I needed. They really aren't bad, especially for a home gym. Just be careful.
