Everything you can do with dumbbells you can do with kettlebells, also, kettlebell swing is fucking beast. Because the center of mass is different, I feel it works way more of my muscles than normal dumbbells.

Owning them is kind of shit because you're stuck with one weight forever so you can't progress.
Wow that's a pretty cool present
now swing them around
Kettle bells are great. The weight is in a different place to dumbbells and you can grip them in a few different ways to change your workout.

How is that any different from dumbbells unless you have an adjustable set?
They normally come as sets any way. You only need 3 at 12kg 18kg and 24kg and you cover most peoples weight ranges.

Heavy swings
Turkish get ups

No different than non-adjustable dumbbells. That's why neither are ideal for home use.
