I replaced my original Nautilus SelectTech dumbells with the 552's. The 552's are not as comfortable as the original design due to the handle/bar is not as ergonomically correct as the older version. I'm now having to use padded workout gloves when using the 552 dumbells to avoid pain/bruising due to poor grip design. Also, since I purchased the dumbells, I'm now getting multiple emails per week from Bowflex to try and sell me other products. This is ridiculous!
Pros: Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Use
Cons: Uncomfortable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I use them daily at home and bring them with when on the road or traveling. They are easier to transport than a bunch of dumbbells. Just wish the straps to secure weights to stand were quicker and easier to do/undo.
Pros: Durable, Easy To Use
Cons: Uncomfortable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Why I won't ever buy a Bowflex product again

Verified Purchase:Yes
I never had a chance to use my dumbbell set since it arrived with a defective dial. Overall the product contained a lot of plastic and small moving parts. Even if they weren't damaged upon arrival, I'd be surprised if they held up very long.
Cons: Flimsy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
