I haven't tried one of these myself so I can't comment on the quality of construction but judging from the pictures it look's like a well designed product and at that price I'd say it's a good alternative to buying a whole set of different weight kb's. I don't know whether or not they're available in the U.S. but I thought I'd post the link here in case anyone's interested.
