I love this equipment! So much more affordable than a traditional dumbbell set, and the efficiency of switching weight is awesome. It also save more space than I could have imagined. I love to work out at home and this equipment is a must-have. I would leave this review even if it was for the #SweepStakes.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Efficient, Quiet, Strengthens
I love this adjustable dumbbell set - makes weight training very easy and takes up very little space. I plan to use them forever since it isn't too likely they will wear out.
Pros: Durable, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Strengthens
Brilliant dial system for changing weight. Increases in 2.5 lb increments up to 25 lbs, unfortunately then 5 lb increments after that. That's a big jump at the higher weights, but I knew that when I bought it. The optional stand has a very poor design to retain the storage trays on the 552 model; a strap that interferes with wrapping your fingers around the dumbbell handle. Huge disappointment, expected much better from Bowflex. Will have to create my own tray retention design. 5 stars for the dumbbell review, 2 stars for the optional stand review.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet
I purchased from another company at the same price point and was disappointed. Sent them back and purchased Bowflex. Couldn't be happier as they're great quality.
I no longer have time to go to the gym, so when I decided to make I own home gym, I looked at the Bowflex 552 set witht the stand to save space and time. These are easy to set up and switching between weights is simple enough. I personally would have preferred all metal construction, instead of plastic, but I haven't had any trouble with these so far.
