Easy to Assemble

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2016

I reviewed the Bowflex Selecttech 560's. Please check that out.

This is the matching stand and it is solidly built and very easy to assemble. After I posted this review, I read the reviews about the troubles assembling other Bowflex stands.....no worries here. The trays are shipped with "rubber" feet, which need to be removed in order to be attached to the stand. Remember to keep the rubber feet and do not discard them. I recently went on a vacation and decided to take one dumbbell and tray. You need the tray to insert the dumbbell into it, so that you can change the weight setting. I put the rubber feet back on and put the dumbbell and tray into my trunk. At my hotel, I didn't have to go and search for a gym.

The back holder on the rack is to hold your phone or tablet. I am 5' 11" and the height is just fine. Some have complained that the stand is too low. It has a small footprint and it is black, which makes it easy to keep in the corner of a room inconspicuously.

The bench in my attached picture is NOT from Bowflex, but is by Marcy. You can find it here: https://www.amazon.com/Marcy-Pro-Utility-Weight-Bench/dp/B017Y14HEC/ref=sr_1_1?s=sports-and-fitness&ie=UTF8&qid=1477599492&sr=1-1&keywords=marcy+pro+utility+weight+bench

This bench is collapsable AND it arrives assembled. Do not pay for assembly. You just need to tighten things up. This bench fits my needs because I wanted a portable/collapsable bench. If you are lifting barbells too, then I'd opt for a bench with a higher weight capacity. I wanted the Ironmaster bench, but in reality, it would have been too big. Amazon has a great variety of benches to choose from. Make sure the bench you buy, can do what you need, i.e. incline, decline, flat, etc.

Lastly, when buying a Bowflex stand, make sure you are buying the corresponding stand that matches your specific Selecttech set. I do recommend this stand versus having to set the weights down on the floor or on a piece of furniture.

A must have if you own the Selecttech 560s

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2017

This is the Bowflex SelectTech 560 stand, which is made solely as a stand for the Bowflex SelectTech 560 Dumbbells . It is easy to put together and works well for holding the 560s. Unless you already have some type of very sturdy bench or table to put them on, you really need to purchase this for use with the 560s. I found my previous stand for my Bowflex 552s pretty indispensable and this one is too. Otherwise, you will get really tired of lifting the weights off the floor all the time. It is very sturdy construction and doesn't take up much space. It does not come with the two base trays you see in the picture. Those are from the 560s, and you have to remove some rubber feet on them and then screw them into the stand. Because of this, you will not be able to use your dumbbells on the stand and then take them somewhere else unless you unscrew the trays and remove them. It has a small workout guide on the back.

My only real complaint with this stand is that it is almost 8 inches lower than the 552 stand, so you have to bend over more, however it is the perfect height for using with a weight bench. It would be nice if you could manually adjust the height on it. It also doesn't have a "handle" on the back like the makeshift one on the 552 stand, so it isn't as convenient to move around. It does get the job done though and is reasonably priced.
