I was part of this recall, bought the 552 back during the pandemic. So I only qualified for a $50 voucher towards a new model, which happened to release at the same time of this recall announcement. Looking further into the recall, it only affecting something like 2% of the dumbbells sold.
I’ll take my chances with these dumbbells I’ve been using for the past 5 years rather than them trying to upsell me on the new model.
I’ve had them 5-10 years (maybe more), but better safe than sorry I guess. Might as well give it a look.
I assume this is the one they mentioned. Just posting it in case other people come across this: https://www.bowflex.com/dumbbell-recalls.html

This product is dangerous and could kill you. We’re going to keep the hundreds and give you $50.
What a joke. $50
At that point my next set would be Power Blocks.
Are those like Mega Blocks?
They hurt less when stepped on
