Really pleased with these adjustable dumbbells and good customer service

Really pleased with these adjustable dumbbells. I looked at lots of different brands before I bought and this pair had the most suitable weight increments for my needs - 1.5/2.5/3.5/4.5/6/7/8/9/10.5/11.5/12.5.
They are a bit bigger that non-adjustable dumbbells, so can seem a bit unwieldy on first use, but once you've got use to this they are fine.
They seem sturdy and well-made (unlike some other brand reviews I read) and the weight-changing dial seems to work well.
Extremely happy and am using these every day.
The website was easy to use and my order arrived quickly.

Thank you so much for the detailed and thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear the adjustable dumbbells have been such a great fit for your training needs and that the weight increments worked perfectly for you.

We really appreciate you highlighting both the sturdy build quality and the smooth weight changing mechanism, as that’s exactly what we aim to deliver. Adjustable dumbbells can definitely feel a little different at first compared to fixed weights, so it’s great to hear you quickly got comfortable with them and are now using them every day 💪

We’re also pleased the ordering process and delivery experience met expectations. Thank you again for your support and recommendation!

Insane Prices, Sexy Equipment, Indestructible 💪

Stumbled across Northern on Instagram and was instantly hooked on the design of the equipment. This then led me to check them out and was then blown away by their prices, so ordered some equipment straight away. It then arrived in no time at all which was impressive and when I unboxed it I was buzzing! I got to work with it right away and I’m finding this stuff is indestructible. Would highly recommend this to anyone. Nice one Northern 💪.

We truly appreciate the recommendation and support. Enjoy the gains and welcome to the Northern family!

Just to follow up and confirm, the issue has now been fully resolved and was also explained to you over the phone. We were able to successfully process the refund on our side.

There was a temporary issue with PayPal during the initial processing, which caused the delay, however this has now been corrected.

We have also sent you a separate email confirmation for your records.

Brilliant Customer care and great prices

Ive ordered from here twice and received great products with fantastic customer service both times. The prices or weights can be astronomical across the Internet, but northern seem to be the most competitive and the quality isnt poor like you'll find from some others.
I recently had an issue with a discount code not working, but after reaching out to their team, Armie sorted it instantly and was very friendly and efficient. The customer service has been brilliant.

I purchased my weights from Northern Gym well over a year ago which no prior issues, then today my adjuster got stuck. I reached out to the team and John was really helpful and gave me some troubleshooting steps to take where he advised of the well hidden reset button! it was resolved in minutes.

Well done John for your prompt replies and also for the help I needed. Spot on fantastic customer service and I would definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
