I'm not even kidding. I will not bother pasting links here, but anyone who is not lazy enough to look it up will have his jaw drop over how amazing it is. Everything they make is modular and super-customizeable and their dumbbells make you wanna work out!
@emil3m1 The Soloflex dumbbells are far more comfortable than the Ironmaster product. The Compound barbell with rotating handles is unlike anything else made. Superior to the Gaspari and Supra bars. This item is nearly impossible to find, so is the rack, and sell for big bucks. Soloflex rubber plates can also be used on other barbells and dumbbells. Many people that have tried both prefer the Soloflex setup. On the Soloflex Forever site the pros and cons of the Ironmaster products are discussed.
@nthug37 the people that have them, love them. The Barbell with stand and 70 pounds of rubber freeweights retailed at 654 plus tax and shipping. An outstanding made in USA piece of equipment. At that price out of reach for most that wanted it. A lot of labour went into it, and it is very strong and well made. Far superior to the Gaspari Arm Bar. It also weighs 28 pounds.
@nthug37 They still make the dumbbells and the new version of the bench has different leg attachments, from the WBV board, the older one is from the Muscle Machine bench. Unfortunately the compound barbell and freeweight rack is no longer available. They used to sell a 170 pound dumbbell package for around $500. Now a 70 pound set is available for around $400 from soloflex. Great stuff, but the price has become a little steep.
@Mbhil The 170 pound set used to be available for $500, pricey, but worth it. Now the 70 pound set is priced at $400. I've tried many different adjustable dumbbells, these are by far the most comfortable. My second choice on adjustable dumbbells are the Ironmaster product. I do not like the Powerblock or Bowflex dumbbells at all. Most that have the Compound Barbell say that it is their favorite piece of equipment. Not available anymore and was expensive to make. Rolls Royce is overpriced too.
In online conversations with the Soloflex founder, he has stated that the demand for the compound barbell was too low. They sold poorly.
The other factor was that to build them took a lot of labour, hence the cost of bringing this barbell to it's limited market was very high.
I have recently acquired one. I also had a Gaspari barbell which also had rotating handles. The quality and feel of the 28 lb. Soloflex Barbell blows the Gaspari away. you can put more weight on it, do more things with it.
The retail price of just the barbell was $314 With the stand and 70 pounds of weights it was priced at $654 if my memory serves me correctly. Hopefully enough demand can be created for this wonderful piece that Soloflex will be able to produce them again. Many people have said that this barbell is their favorite piece of equipment.
one word -- Ironmaster
