Bowflex Dumbbells

There isn't anyone out there that has a set of the Bowflex adjustable dumbbells that they want to get rid of is there?

I am probably going to go pick some up later this week but I thought if anyone had some that they weren't using I would offer to take them off your hands.

If I was buying a set of adjustable dumbells I would purchase PowerBlocks.

PowerBlock World's Best Dumbbell-Home

They are really nice. I tried the Bowflex but thought they were junk made for people who never would actually use them.

I agree on the PowerBlock. I don't know that the Bowflex dumbells are junk, but I like the expandability of the PowerBlock dumbells if the goal is to add strength. Bowflex is stuck at like 52.5 lbs max for each dumbell, while the PowerBlock is expandable up to (I think) 150 lbs per dumbell.

Thanks!!

Agree with the other two. The bowflex are more expensive and more likely to break
