Bowflex SelectTech 552 Dumbbells Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been keeping my eyes on this product for the last few years thinking it would be the perfect solution for me in my cramped workout area in my home.Finally this Christmas I bought them.Here's what I found:

Pluses:
- Eliminates the need to have many dumbbells.
- The stand was free on a promotion.
- The handle is fairly comfortable.
- Nice variety of weights to choose from.

Minuses:
- Bulky for a dumbbell.
- The weights shift as you are lifting them, making balance an issue.
- Have to adjust not one, but two dials to dial in the correct weight for each dumbbell and you dial them in opposite directions.
- The weights feel like they are about to come off.They didn't for me, but they just didn't feel solid.

Conclusion:
Bottom line on this one is try them before you buy them.They may be great for you, but for me they are awkward and that's why I returned them.I tried out a pair of PowerBlocks the other day and am going to go that route.They are more solid, easier to change weights, and smaller.Plus, the 5-45lb set is way cheaper than the SelectTech's at around $267 with free shipping.
