Get in shape with the Nautilus® PowerPak® dumbbells. These weights adjust from 4 to 45 lbs at the twist of a dial, so you can get a complete resistance workout without tons of space-hogging equipment.Offering an ideal combination of performance and space-saving ingenuity, the Universal Power Pak dumbbell and stand set is a great choice for athletes and beginning weight trainers alike. The Power Pak dumbbells--which adjust from 4 to 45 pounds in 5-pound increments--work just like a weight stack at the gym. When you want to change weights, simply move the weight selector dial to the appropriate setting. As you lift the handle, the weights lift with you, turning your 10-pound dumbbell into a 20-pound, 30-pound, or 40-pound dumbbell. The dumbbell set lets you perform everything from light tricep extensions to bicep curls to incline bench press, all with a single dumbbell set. No more cluttering up your workout space with dozens of weights, or trudging across the room to grab new dumbbells each time you switch exercises.
The set also includes a Universal stand that lets you store your dumbbells in a single location. The stand includes two cradles that are custom sized for the Power Pak dumbbells, holding them at an ideal height for quick access. Plus, the stand makes it easy to reach the weight selector dial, so you can adjust the Power Pak dumbbells in just a few quick seconds. The dumbbells and stand carry a one-year warranty.

Nice inexpensive alternative to the Bowflex SelectTechs and other adjustable models
The Power-Pak 445 (PP445) by Universal (a division of Nautilus) is an adjustable dumbbell set that allows you to adjust the weight of the dumbbells from 4 to 45 pounds in 5lb increments. Traditional dumbbells are expensive. They typically sell for around $1 per pound, and take up a lot of room. If you're at a gym this isn't a problem. If you're working out from home, it is a real pain to store 7 or 8 sets of dumbbells, and bring them out and put them away after a workout. I am a big fan of adjustable dumbbell sets. Not only do you usually save money, but you get a lot more variety which makes your workouts faster and more efficient, and prevent clutter in your house. The only disadvantage to them, is that they're bigger than standard dumbbells, which can limit your range of motion in some exercises, and you can't drop them or be as rough with them as regular weights.
Below are the major brands of adjustable dumbbells that Amazon sells in the 50 pound range. I've...

Great weight set at a great price
I was a little worried purchasing these with no reviews, but I took a chance and boy am I happy I did. I was very pleased with the ease of setting up the stand and weights. The weights are very easy to use and switch between the different weight levels. I would highly recommend these for both the price of the stand/weights and for the quality of the product. You won't be disappointed.
For the money, it could be better. But it works OK.
My main concern upon getting this was: Would the weights stay in place on the dumbell as you move? Do you know what I mean? I like a SOLID dumbell. I like the thing to be a solid unit as I move my arm around.
Unfortunately, the weights on these dumbell units do shift back and forth as you use them. A minor annoyance, I suppose, but it irks me. It feels like the weights want to slip off, or something. I don't feel comfortable with that.
Aside from that, I do enjoy them. The dial is a great way to switch weights - a nice big easy to turn dial.
The stand is all right - I like the silver color to it. It looks futuristic. The dumbell weights look cool too - that goofy shape they have is good because if you set them on the ground, they can't roll away.
The stand is all right, but it does feel like it wants to lean/fall forward, just a little. But - it hasn't tipped over (yet).
Assembly is pretty straightforward, and they give you all the tools you need...
Product Features :
- Each dumbbell adjusts from 4 to 45 pounds, in 5 pound increments, allowing you to rapidly switch from one exercise to the next
- Great space and money saver; the Universal Power Pak replaces 9 sets or 18 individual dumbbells
- Includes an ergonomically designed dumbbell stand to neatly store your dumbbells
- Durable thermoplastic rubber handle for a comfortable non-slip grip
- Workout guide
