Hello,
FYI: I have been using the Dragondoor versions for over a year and
consider then to be a legitimate tool for an excellent workout. Two
handed exercises, even with the 36 pounders, will put a good zap on you,
quickly. The only downer with the DD KBs is that you can't gradually
increase the weight as mentioned below.
