Use in my home gym, convenient and more cost effective to change the dials instead of keeping multiple sets of weights. Loving it so far. #sweepstakes

Hey KD - stoked to hear your 552s are easier to use than expected and it's a great addition to your home gym! Keep up the great work, we're rooting for you! -Bowflex Team
I use in my home gym and it is so convenient compared to the 4 days off dumbbells i had before. I got it for the convenience of not storing/paying for several different dumbbell weights and a simple rack, dial change, and I'm in business to step up the weight.
Pros: Comfortable, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens

Good product but not for small people

These are a good idea but, as a smaller woman, they're incredibly bulky to use like a normal dumbbell. I have a few sets of traditional dumbbells as well and find myself opting for those instead of the bowflex because they're just much easier to use. It's unfortunate because the bowflex are so versatile weight-wise. My husband, on the other hand, has no problem using these. So, if you're a smaller person, you may have difficulty with the bulkiness of this product.
I have several Bowflex products and love each of them. they are designed to look nice, be safe, and save a lot of space for a wonderful and efficient home gym. The products are designed to be easy to set up and last a long time. I get a wonderful workout at home during my lunchtimes without ever having to go to a gym. I highly recommend these dumbbells (and all Bowflex products).

Hello! We are SO happy to hear that you are enjoying not only your Bowflex SelectTech 552 Dumbbells but your additional Bowflex products as well. Your feedback is very much valued and appreciated. We wish you the best on your fitness goals! -Bowflex Team
It's really bulky. It's really difficult to use both dumbbells at the same time when you need to keep them in front of you. They keep bumping to each other. Plus the shipping took over 4 months!
