I've been trying to set up a home gym (finally after 3 years putting it off) and I want a full dumbbell set from 5 to 100 pounds. Is there? I see RepFitness and it looks good but I think it's only 75 lbs max or is that the common thing? Rogue and Vulcan Strength are on my list too. Has anyone used them and tried dropping them or something from an overhead height? What's you guys' reviews?
 
REP Fitness offers full dumbbell sets from 5-100lbs, and I think they can also go up higher!
Their hex dumbbells are generally known for their durability and they're built to take regular use and occasional drops, but it's not recommended to drop them from overhead height for long-term longevity.
I've been using REP for a few years now, almost for daily use, and they're holding up very well.
 
Been checking out PowerBlocks and honestly I think theyre pretty good. Definitely worth considering. Also, if you're okay with mixing brands, CAP dumbbells pop up on sale at Walmart every now and then.

I think you need to consider a set of adjustable dumbbells. Brands like PowerBlocks or Ironmaster can give you the functionality of a full rack from 5-120lbs in a tiny footprint. It's a huge space and a money saver for a home gym
