I was a little worried after reading a few of the negative comments but pleasantly surprised that, in my case anyway, none of those were true. I use the dumbbell weights in my home gym and they work fine. Switching weight on them is very simple and makes changing up the workouts very simple. I have had no issues with them and enjoy using them.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy Storage, Easy To Set Up, Easy To Use, Quiet, Strengthens
These have been an integral part of my home gym creation since COVID shut down gyms. I have now cancelled my memberships and have a fitness bike the selecttech dumbbells, selecttech kettlebell and the media stand. These have made workouts more convenient, and have been able to fit a few sets in throughout the day instead of one long workout at the gym.

Bowflex SelectTech: Hands-down the BEST adjustable dumbbell!

I've been looking to buy these dumbbells since March when I was fully recovered from a hernia repair but they became unavailable once Covid restrictions went into place. They finally became available through Bowflex in August and I jumped on them and they are terrific. PRICE: At just over $300, these are the best bargain in town. They effectively take the place of a typical dumbbell rack with more than 10 pairs of dumbbells. Aside from the price savings, the space savings is the biggest deal because you have every weight available in one small spot. ADJUSTMENTS: The adjustment mechanism is really good. You can dial in all the usual weights by simply matching the numbers on both sides. It literally takes less than 5 seconds to change the weight. There is a nice clicking mechanism so you know exactly when everything is in place. BULK: The weights are definitely a little on the bulky side, especially when you are using less weight (i.e. the size of 10 pounds is still the same as 50 in length but with less weight). So they are probably not ideal if you are doing aerobic activity and need to incorporate weights into the routine. But for work on a bench or standing, they are very nice. COMFORT: The handles are really grippy and the weights feel nice in the hand at any weight. Overall, I highly recommend getting these - if you can find them!!!

These are so much easier to use than I originally thought. So great not having so many pairs of weights. Great value if you add up what you'd spend on individual weights.
