Adjustable weight set is very versatile; each dumbbell replaces 14 standard individual dumbbells while taking up the space of one dumbbell and placing substantially less stress on the floor (compared to a set of 14 individual dumbbells). Rubber insert on the contoured handle makes gripping them much more comfortable that standard all-metal dumbbell grips, especially at heavier weight settings. Cha Mike · bowflex.com
