I mistakenly assumed that each dumbbell only had one adjustment dial to turn for the amount of weight. It actually has 2. On bicep day I like to do rapid sets of curls with decreasing weight between each set. So with 2 dumbbells this means that I actually have to adjust 4 dials (instead of just 2) in order to set up the weight for my next set. This means more time between sets rather than a series of rapid sets. Not a big issue, but it's the one small issue I have with the weights so far after about a week of use now.

Just got this finally! Used them twice, love how convenient it is to change weights for different sets! Only complaint is the bulkiness, when I do shoulder raise I have to be careful not hit my ears :). But it's the best set of weights I have purchased. #sweepstakes

My wife and I use our Bowflex equipment including these dumbbells and love them. The dumbbells are great for adding incremental weight...might be helping me a little more because I lift more.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use

I'm a small, 5ft 115lb woman and I absolutely love my new Bowflex Dumbbells! I live in a small apartment and their compact size is perfect for easy stowaway. It's also really easy to switch between weights!
