So far, I am loving the Bowflex SelectTech552 Dumbbells! Easy to use, not as bulky as I thought, good storage solution, and very sturdy. Allow for great versatility for our at-home virtual workouts during COVID. I might need to get a set for my wife too! She loves using them! Well worth the 3-month wait time to have them shipped. #sweepstakes The only downside so far is It took a long time to ship, which is understandable yet unfortunate. Highly recommend signing up for the product notification email to get your spot in line when the next batch is released from production.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use
So far, these dumbbells have been amazing! Very easy to switch weights and they are easy to store away when they're not in use! Would absolutely recommend to anyone that needs to stay active but can't due to closures of gyms #sweepstakes
Pros: Comfortable, Easy Storage, Easy To Use, Strengthens
I had used a similar weight set from a different company but ordered this one because I have always received great service with stellar products. I bought this for my husband since he is not working out from home. We have put in a nice gym in our garage with weight racks, etc. I am in the fitness business and highly recommend this weight set. Adaptable to many different weight settings providing many options for the user. Very easy to change settings. Highly recommend. Definitely worth the "wait" to get them in our set up.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Loads of options, Quiet, Strengthens
I've used the product for strength training and a performance training program so far. They are great for standard routines such as full bicep curls, chest press, etc. However, due to length other routines such as shoulder press, lateral raises, etc, are still taking some time to adjust to.
Pros: Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet
During the shelter in place I started working out and needed weights. Unfortunately there were none immediately available...I guess everyone had the same plan. I used resistance bands and they served their purpose. But now since I've had the 552's, I've seen an increase in strength and mass. Super convenient and worth the wait.

I used to go to the gym every day and no longer feel comfortable doing so due to COVID. I have a small 1 bedroom apartment in Santa Monica and so these dumbbells are ideal for me and my girlfriend to work out at home and build strength.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens
I just open this today and give it a try . WOW . I was amazed . Very convenient easy to use . I love these dumbbells very much . I am thinking that I will cancel my membership and stay home exercise. Everything in one dumbbells with just the spin of the selection save space and so convenient. The best work out equipment. GREAT JOB GREAT INVENTION.
Pros: Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use
These are sturdy, high quality, and scale to fitness/strength level. They feel solid while using them and easily rest on the ground in between sets. The 2.5-5lb increments are perfect for various workouts and they also adjust very smooth and quick. The only con is I had to wait 8 months for them to become available during Covid months. I wish I would have bought these years ago. I will be purchasing the stands for them next. They fit well in my home gym with my PR3000 and C6 bike. I've never regretted a single Bowflex purchase.
