Working out with BowFlex adjustable dumbbells? You might want to switch to another method for a while.
Consumers are encouraged to stop using them immediately and return them for a refund.
Johnson Health Tech Trading, which sells the weights under the BowFlex name, is working with the CPSC to recall the products, including the ones sold under Nautilus, the former owner of the BowFlex brand.
To facilitate that, consumers will be sent a prepaid shipping label to return the handle and base for each returned dumbbell. Johnson Health Tech Trading plans to contact all known purchasers directly.
The black dumbbells were sold in pairs and single units. The 552 model adjusts from five to 52.5 pounds, while the model 1090 ranges from 10 to 90 pounds.
