NUOBELL

I bought them during the pandemic. I use them every single workout anywhere from 10-80 lbs. They’d definitely bust if I tossed them on the ground because of the plastic, so I don’t and they’ve held up very well the last 5 years. I would 100% buy them again. It’s the nuobell brand.

If Nuobells doesn’t sue Gluck idk how anyone else could possibly lol Not saying Nuobells has a case, just that he has continually buried them the worst. The latest video where they immediately broke was almost comedic

Powerblock pro exp 100 MX evolution 100 Rep x Pepin Nuobell s5100 Ironmaster/eisenlink Rep Pepin probably the highest quality but there are downsides: cage design, high price, janky adder weight system, sometimes plates bind up. MX100 ranked slightly lower on fit & finish but good durability, no cag

It really demonstrates the limits of power Gluck has to damage a brand. Nuobell sells just fine despite years of Gluck making that kind of content.

Its funny that everyone goes on the same journey… the ecosystem is small and when you consider dropping anywhere from a couple hundred dollars to more than a thousand dollars then you get a little obsessed lol… I had the powerblock u90 model (discontinued) which is compatible with the pro xp model w

Sure it’s not that long. But I really really appreciate being to change in 2-3 seconds (nuobell s5100) as opposed to 30-40 seconds. It’s a big difference and makes my workouts that much more enjoyable.

I have Nuobells. They are great, but there is a risk of breaking the internal mechanism if you drop them. I used to worry about this a lot, but I've had them for two years and have never had any issues. I would also consider Rep x Pepins and Snode with the magnetic weights to allow for 5lb adjustmen

I don't think there is a "best". Everything has compromises. - Rep Peppins are the fan-favorite and durable but they're expensive, semi-caged, and the weight change system is subjective. Ability to go to 125. - Nuobells are my personal choice but they're admittedly fragile, even the new, more durabl
