Your reviews on these dumbbells are excellent. You bring out details that no one else does .

[juanvaldez]

I love the way you explain everything on all your videos. You keep it simple. I’m just a dad trying to maintain. Not a body builder. I have a busy career plus being a dad. Your instructional videos really do help in injury prevention.

Thanks a lot for this review man! I got rid of all my weights years ago because they took too much space, now I can start training again at home!

[LAWRENCExRACHAL]

Thank you for this review. Direct explanation and useful comparisons to other products. Been thinking about these for a few days and placed my order on Amazon last night after watching your review. Much appreciated.

Hey thanks for the detailed review. You covered all the essentials. Loved your term 'ultra annoying' for when the mechanism locks up. I can see that being a pain.

[peacefulgungfu]

I just got a used pair last week, and then your video review showed up. Awesome honest review and great video segments. Impressed you can do renegade rows with these.

[BottleRocketMediaChicago]

Great review. You have been telling me to get these for years. I now understand why. Thanks!

[metroidklr]

Thanks for the information. My new set arrived today and I appreciate your long term user perspective.

[staceybelmont]

Thanks for the review, man. Some stuff to think about.

[Skybusdriver]

Thanks for showing the durability aspect of the weights, awesome review!

[sdasherx]

Sold! Great review. Straight to the point.

[Lynchie]

Thank you so much for showing the actual dials and the weights they work out as

[neomatrix]

Thank you for sharing Costco in Canada is selling these for around $350 Canadian I'll be buying some

Thanks for the review. That locking up thing and smooth action in and out of the platform was what I was worried would annoy me, not to mention the width of the dumbbell.

Just bought the powerblock exp 1.. and im so happy... very funny video. that base come up thing was hilarious :DD

Hi Vern, at 8:53 you refer to your dials getting stuck. There are a few potential causes beyond anything Bowflex attempts to explain in the video to which you referred. Here are a few troubleshooting questions:

Is the handle fully seated in the base? Even as little a millimeter up off the base on one end will cause issues with the dials turning.

Are the dials set precisely to a weight setting on both sides? If they are rotated even as little as an 1/8th inch too much to one side or the other, the dumbbell (by design) may lock itself into the base. Always make sure your dials are dead-set on the numbers.

Is there any debris in the base under one of the plates? A tiny stone or other debris under a plate in the base will interfere with turning your dials.

[Grunfeld]

Thanks, great review. I was curious how these worked.

Great video! I asked my wife for these today as a birthday gift (12/31). I noticed in Dick’s that I couldn’t take them off base but I thought they were locked for safety..hmmm interesting... very informative and helped me solidify decision to get them! I loved the way you asked for “Fonzerellis” at the end! Best way I’ve heard the request! I like your shirt; Psalm 119. I am looking forward to these helping me to not miss a workout day because I can’t get to the gym. They will supplement a 20 lb slam ball, battle rope, Marcy gym 990, ez-barbell (not Olympic size) and a hodgepodge of other weights. My son is 17 and I look forward to how fast he will progress vs me at 43 and my daughter is 14 so these will help her start with lighter weights. Let’s get done!

[InspireMe]

awesome review. Thank you for posting this.

I bought one a few months ago on your recommendation and I put it to use everyday. Will buy a second but there’s something to be said about one at a time.
