I can't say enough good things about this product and company.
When my order was first placed there was a small billing error that I was unaware of. The company was right on it. They notified me right away and the error was corrected promptly without delay or drama.Customer service continued to be excellent and quickly responsive to any queries and concerns I had when setting up my stack. One of my problems was the weight required for me (a fairly petite woman with no previous kettleball/stack experience) was the amount of weight required to get the nice round shape exceeded my novice ability to lift with good form. The kettlestack crew was kind enough to let me beta the foam plates and wow what a difference they made in the shape and stability of the stack. The foam plates seem like a small thing, but they made a big difference in my use and enjoyment of the stack. So if you need them, don't feel like a wuss. Get them and you'll be glad you did.
The delivery ((Kettlestack adjustable kettlebells)) was quick and the assembly was even easier than I had expected. Also, despite my worries about how well it will work with Olympic plates, it has been very OK. Thanks once again and best regards, OU, Finland
Hi kettleguys,
Just got my kettlestack handles - they're great.
At first i'm wondering how strong they'd be, but once the weights are clamped in it's together!
and I savd a bunch on shipping- I'd be wiped out if I had to pay for shipping a pile of kettlebells to PR.
That tip about swings with a single heavy kettlebell worked great also.
You guys have a great product and great service.

Within minutes of working with my newly assembled 35 lb. Base kettlestack I ordered another one. The solid quality was instantly felt. The one concern I read on the internet from kettlebell enthusiasts was about the possibility of weights getting lose while using an adjustable model. My trepidation about this was swashed after examining the kettlestack. I could throw it against a wall and confidently know it wouldn’t come apart.
I shopped around diligently and compared prices with all the other brand kettlebells on the market. I had been contemplating getting some bells from Amazon.com and figured they were the best deal; however the price in shipping was still expensive.
I had never worked out with a kettlebell so I knew I wanted an adjustable model to figure out what weight would be best for me. The other adjustable-style Kettlebell on the market cost $149.99 (plus $72.87 shipping). That’s $222.86 for one bell! No thanks. For ¼ that price I found kettlestack. Understandably, there are no weights included. No problem. I found an inexpensive solution to that.
Here’s a tip for everyone trying to find decent plates without paying extra in freight. I found my local sporting good store, Big 5, had a $149.99 100 lb. weight set with barbell & 2 dumbbells on sale for $99.99. (It seems like every month they have all their fitness gear on sale, so it’s just a matter of keeping your eyes peeled for their weight set sales.) Best of all, I went to Big 5’s website and signed up to receive a 10% discount coupon that they emailed to me. I applied that savings to the purchase of all the plates I needed for my kettlestack, plus I had extra plates left over for my 2nd kettlestack.
I have now two complete kettlebells from Kettlestack at a fraction of the price I would have paid Amazon.com, and the money saved I put it toward a kettlebell instructional DVD. Kettlestack is stacked in savings!
I have been using the kettlestacks since January and have found them to be very easy to assemble, use and it does almost everything a regular kettlebell does.
Since the plates are adjustable you can also set them lower than the cast KBs without hurting the forearms of beginner Kettlestackers.
I highly recommend them for their functionality. It's a great product.
I'm going to look into making base plates that can be attached to the main bolt so that renegade rows can also be done with them.
They came on Friday..and work great!Thanks,superproduct.

I just wanted to say thanks to Kettlestack for a couple of things.
First, I don't remember how long ago I purchased my first KS, but I got my second one for Christmas and I am loving every minute of it. KS training has given me a whole new avenue for establishing and achieving new training goals. In just a few short weeks I've gone from hating TGUs to wanting to add them to every workout.
Second, they have great customer service. With my first KB they gave me more than I asked for in terms of equipment and when I contacted them to ask about the configuration of the second package, they immediately made sure that I had what I wanted.
If you are remotely considering a kettlebell of any kind, I think the only solution for the modern athlete is Kettlestacks.
Thank you for you follow up.... I've set it up for 54 - 55lb. I'm very happy with the kettle stack for my swings and one arm military press. The product really works! I look forward to progressing to the 70 - 80lb swings without emptying my wallet for the solid KB's. (AC, New Jersey)
These things are great. I have 3 here is my payment for 2 more!
It is really a genius idea that solves a lot of problems. I have more than one set as as luxury to allow me to move quicker between sets. When these arrive I'll have 2 as 35 lbs, 2 at 55 and 1 at 70. As I get stronger I'll go to 2 55s, 2 70s and 1 80 or 85. I priced out some fixed weight KBs and price-wise it made no sense. I have been working w/ your product for a few mos and I am very pleased.

Pretty decent prices and shipping is reasonable as well, just thought I'd share with your guys here. I plan on getting the 7.5 plates from here if I can't find them local.
with a 70 pound base, does that mean i can load it with 70 pounds of plates, or 70 pounds including the weight of the handle ( 67.5 pounds of plates plus the handle)?
thank you
Hi folks,
Just wondering what the best option is to get a pair of kettlestacks in Canada. Shipping them from the states? Or is there an official supplier in Canada that would be better?
i, thanks very much for the quick reply back to me. thats great news that you gave me. Sorry to continue with the questions but i have a couple more.
i only have Olympic plates (like the 10kg, 5kg, 2.5kg and 1.25kg) does your product fit olympic plates or is it just for weider plates with the smaller holes? More kettlebell stuff . . .
Hi Everyone !
Our updated product line still has a base, mid, and high option but things have changed!!! More kettlebell stuff . . .
Hello everyone - - I've never used kettlebells before but would like to try them out. After reading over this website the Kettlestack seems like a good way to go since it is very versatile and expandable (and I have lots of weight plates). My question is - - what handle would be best for me to get ? More kettlebell stuff . . .
