Rank #5 in Best Hex Dumbbells 2026: 10 Ranked, Pair or Single
HOMCOM 2 x 17.5kg Rubber Hex Dumbbell
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The HOMCOM 2 x 17.5KG Rubber Hex Dumbbell is a pair of fixed-weight dumbbells, number 5 in this guide, at £62.99 with 4.8 out of 5 from 37 ratings. The telling part of this listing is the item weight. The spec table puts it at 35.2 kg, which is roughly the two dumbbells together (2 x 17.5 kg = 35 kg), not the 17.5 kg of a single one. That makes HOMCOM the counter-example to a pattern that runs through the rest of this guide, where the same field carries the per-dumbbell figure or something else again. The set name "2x17.5kg", Unit Count "2.0 count" and Number of Items "2" all point the same way, so on this listing the weight figures agree with each other.
Two smaller things are worth flagging before you buy. The star breakdown shown on the page puts 91 in the five-star row, 4 in the four-star row and 5 in the three-star row, and those three numbers add up to 100 against a review count of 37 — so they read as percentages rather than head counts, and the five-star share is not 91 separate buyers. The spec table also files the dumbbell under "Target Use Body Part: Back", which is a narrower claim than the bullet points, which present it as general weight training equipment. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing as it is published, not from any testing we have carried out.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Got to be careful typing this out - I've got so strong using these, that I've crushed everything I've touched since. Like a steroid fuelled Midas.Came well packaged and the delivery driver was delighted to have to carry them to my door...The weights themselves are decent quality, good burnished handles, the rubber coating even and not with scrappy bitsThey actually weight 17.5kg too - which isn't always the case.Get them now - be absolutely jacked in 6 days time - probably.”

Questions people ask
How much does one HOMCOM dumbbell weigh?
The listing names the set 2x17.5kg and describes a "17.5kg weight", so each dumbbell is 17.5kg. A reviewer also states that they weighed them and got 17.5kg per dumbbell.
Does £62.99 buy one dumbbell or two?
Two. The title reads "2 x 17.5KG", the spec table lists Number of Items as 2, Unit Count as 2.0 count and Number of Pieces as 2.
What is the combined weight of the pair?
The item weight field says 35.2 kg, which is close to double the 17.5kg per dumbbell the rest of the listing states.
Are these suitable for beginners?
HOMCOM's own bullet says the 17.5kg weight is "Not for beginners" and is made for people who have been training and building up to that level.
Will the weights roll across the floor?
The listing says the hexagon shaped ends prevent the weight rolling away, and lists "No-Roll Head" among the special features.
How many ratings does it have?
37 ratings at 4.8 out of 5. The breakdown on the page shows 91 in the five-star row, 4 in the four-star row and 5 in the three-star row, which sum to 100, so they appear to be percentages rather than counts of buyers.
