The OGs in the adjustable dumbbell space, the SelectTech can revolutionize your home gym thanks to their innovative build. These weights are as durable as they come: Its alloy steel construction provides the ultimate stability and strength while the ABS plastic (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) helps to soften the dumbbells from damaging floors if dropped. A soft rubber grip provides the ideal non-slip touch to let you lift confidently. And, with the turn of a dial, you can change up each dumbbell's weight from 5 to 52.5 pounds in 2.5-pound increments, essentially giving you 15 dumbbells in one compact package.
“Worth its weight in gold—they’re fantastic,” one shopper raved. “Above all, what I like most about these is the amount of space they take up...or the lack thereof. They’re about as versatile as you can get without taking up more room than a standard chair in a corner.”

"With a name like Bowflex, you know you are getting a good set of dumbells, and they are indeed.” They also loved their overall quality. “They are a slight premium up from other brands but there's something about Bowflex's ease of use, quality, and durability that just can't be replicated. Love them.”
If you have an at-home gym or you're just looking to work on your upper body in your living room, the Bowflex SelectTech 552 Adjustable Dumbbells are the gold standard, and at a price like this, you’ll want to grab a pair before it, or the 'bells themselves, disappear.
