Amazon.com Product Review

Do away with your space-consuming workout equipment and consolidate with the innovative Bowflex SelectTech 1090 adjustable dumbbell. Offering adjustable resistance from 10 pounds all the way up to 90 pounds (in 5-pound increments), the SelectTech 1090 does the work of multiple dumbbells in one. No longer will you need to dedicate more than a few feet of space to your workout area. The 1090 dumbbell is outfitted with a single handle connected to a dial mechanism. As you turn the dial upward, the handle latches on to additional weight plates, with an easy-to-read display telling you how much weight you've chosen. At lighter weights, you can perform basic toning and strength exercises, such as curls and raises, while at heavier weights, you can do more demanding lifts like shrugs and lunges. Best of all, you won't have to buy new dumbbells as you get stronger, as the SelectTech 1090s provide all the weight you need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tips for the DBs, June 19, 2009
Javier (The Bay) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bowflex SelectTech 1090 Adjustable Dumbbell (Single) (Sports)
First off, this is a great product, but I will not spend the time reviewing the great things about this product because I feel there are many other reviews that have already done that. Here are some things I found I thought should be helpful to others:

1) In the "most helpful critical review" it is listed that the rectangular chrome handles are a pain to deal with. This almost compelled me not to buy this product. However, after trying out the DBs, I did not find it much of a bother. The "rectangular" handles are pretty much round with a hint of "rectangulariness" if you will. Not much of a bother to me, but some thick tape cloth should remedy the problem if you have sensitive hands.

2) To those that do not want to buy the $150 stand, I found that instead of picking the DBs off the floor, you can simply make use of the shipping boxes as a custom made stand. Just turn over the Styrofoam and cut off the top lid of the box and place the DB within the box and you...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Great quality product, October 16, 2008

This review is from: Bowflex SelectTech 1090 Adjustable Dumbbell (Single) (Sports)
I've been using the 1090's for a few weeks now. I have a very limited amount of workout space in my apartment so I don't have the room for a full dumbbell set. This set provides 90 lbs for each arm which is more than enough for every exercise that I do. 50 lbs was not enough so I'm glad I bought the 1090's vs. the 1050's.

The 1050's have a nice rubberized handle grip but the 1090's have an all metal grip with a rough texture. I find them less comfortable than the rubberized grip but a little tape takes care of the issue.

The dial selector is very good and is super easy to use. It just takes a couple seconds to dial in the weight you want and off you go. This is a very high quality product and it works very well.

The only drawback I've seen is that the bar is pretty long so you are using a large and long dumbbell even when you only need 10 lbs of weight. I've had some trouble doing double arm curls because the weights hit when I get my arms close...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Strength Training Purchase I've Ever Made!!, November 15, 2009
Barry Rabkin (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Bowflex SelectTech 1090 Adjustable Dumbbell (Single) (Sports)
I'm a certified personal trainer, I've been lifting regularly for nearly a decade and after 3 months with my Selectech 1090 dumbbells I can tell you with absolute certainty they are the best purchase I've ever made to get a stronger, more muscular body.

First off let me tell you why I decided to get them since my motivations will help explain their benefits:

Already knowledgeable on lifting - Like I said, I'm a certified personal trainer and I already know how to do tons of exercises with proper form. If I had no idea how to do strength training, these dumbbells would be pretty intimidating, and I'd probably want to get a home gym machine to guide me through the proper motions.

180 is Just Right - For someone light the 1050's that are 50 pounds would probably be adequate resistance. By the same token, if your a 250 pound lineman on your Division 1 College football team, or a power lifter these weights will be inadequate for you. 180 pounds is enough...Read more
