Great for a garage gym. "#sweepstakes" Husband just needed to mount the bases on wheels to make repositioning and storage even easier. "#sweepstakes" He used heavyweight, wheeled, potted plant caddies for that. "#sweepstakes" Saves so much time--with so much less frustration--compared to wrangling with old-fashioned dumbbells and their clamps/collars.
Pros: Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet

Overall a good system for what their intended for: good range of weights, relatively easy to use, they don't take up too much space. My only con that may not be a problem for someone with wider shoulders is that i find the dumbbells hit each other during some exercises because the system itself is relatively wide to be able to accommodate all the discs. For example, at the top of a shoulder press. #sweepstakes

Not happy so far

I love ellipticals and during the pandemic, I bought M6. Worked fine for a while. About 6 months with light usage, the resistance stop working. I called customer service, they seemed like they cared. Sent me some info on how to tear apart the unit to help diagnose the issue. After receiving the info, I decided I didn't feel comfortable tearing into the unit. I emailed Erick A. and said as much. I would rather have a tech come and repair. Warranty only covers labor for the first 90 day, so service call was on me. Whatever, I need this less than a year, lightly used machine fixed. 2 weeks past, I had repeatedly emailed Erick, no response from Erick and no tech called either? I call Bowflex again, today, got a hold of someone else, explained what happen. It apprears Erick never put in an order for the tech. So as of today, I am starting over. We'll see what happens!!!!! NOT happy so far!!!!
Pros: Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use

This product is great but the stand that was recommended was not so great. It should have bolts and not just straps.

I would not necessarily recommend this product for women

I use for at home strength training during zoom sessions with my personal trainer. With other than full weights on the handle, it feels out of balance in my hand because it feels like the "bar" of the dumb bell is longer than normal. I am a fairly strong female, I do not have large hands. I am wishing that I had bought individual sets of dumb bells and not a single adjustable one. It seemed like a terrific idea but I am regretting the purchase. I will continue to try and get used to these before I give up and give them to my nephew and order myself a set of dumb bells that are not adjustable.
Pros: Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up
Cons: Hard To Use, Heavy / Bulky, Uncomfortable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I workout with my dad several times a week on his Bowflex Xtreme 2 SE home gym. I needed something to help me change up my full body workouts for basketball so my dad got these for my birthday. I love how easy they were to set up and they are great for both upper and lower body workouts. I especially enjoy how low impact it can be depending on the workouts you are doing. Awesome product!

These are the best and coolest looking dumbbells ive ever seen. I saved up money to get them and woah it was worth it. The feel really good to handle, not to mention they look very cool. Changing how much each dumbbell weighs is fun and easy to do. I sat down nitpicking everything i could think of and came to the conclusion that these quite possibly could be the best dumbbells money can possibly buy. They are comfortable, cool looking, grip feels just right, i feel like its targeting the areas i want to improve, it has its own bed to lay it in so putting it away is so easy and effortless, changing how much it weighs is very cool because you can see the mechanism lock when you choose a size with the weight knob, they came in the mail so fast, and the manual shows you so much info on what workouts you can do and what muscle it is for. I dont think i need another set ever again or a gym membership. This was worth the savings and now it helps motivate me to workout more often at my own apartment. I recommend these for everyone looking for the most comfortable perfect feeling dumbbells. This is my first Bowflex thing i ever bought and now im curious about what else they have. Im just a regular average guy getting by like everyone else and this set is what i needed to look how i want to look and have great arms people can stare at. This is my honest review of the bowflex dumbbells.
