UPDATE: PowerBlock USA did not reply my email after having waited for more than a month. I called them over the old-school telephone. The girl on the other side of the phone had to speak to her manager to provide a resolution. She said the lifetime warranty offered is NOT INTERNATIONAL, it is limited to US customers only. She then offered me a 20% discount on a new set of Pro Series (urethane) provided I paid for the freight from USA to Australia. Obviously I wasn't going to buy another set of crap and also pay the freight which would have costed as much as the PB themselves. Then they asked me to contact the local dealer who I bought it from. Unfortunately the local dealer who I bought it from have closed down their business. So I am now in limbo with these useless broken dumbbells. So before you buy these urethane series, do remember that they won't last forever.
I bought these PowerBlock U90 dumbbells back in 2011. In the last 9.5 years they have been very lightly used. I used one of the dumbbells today after 8-9 months. While doing shoulder press with 27kg, one of the plates almost detached from the supporting yellow rod and fell on my head. Upon Inspection I found it had cracked. I inspected the other plates of the blocks and blue one also cracked like it was soft rubber. It is not supposed to break like this.
I had always used this at home and I was the only one who used these dumbbells. The manufacturer provides a *lifetime warranty* on this product. It is a shame that the AU$998 I spent buying these ended up like this.
I have contacted PowerBlock USA and will see what they have to say.
(INB4 you jump into the comments section and start defending PowerBlock, note that your model of PowerBlock might be all metallic and won't be prone to this issue.)
