About this product
This is a replacement weight plate for Bowflex Series 1 SelectTech 552 dumbbells. It is plate #5 with a weight of 7.8 lbs (listed as 5 lb in specs, but title says 7.8 lb). The plate is intended for repair or replacement of a lost or damaged disc. It is compatible with the 552 system and designed for weight lifting. The brand is Bowflex and it is an adjustable type plate.
Our take
I ordered this to replace a missing plate on my Bowflex 552s. The listing says 7.8 lbs, but the spec label says 5 lb—there's some inconsistency there. However, the plate itself matched my existing ones in size and weight (I weighed it at 7.8 lbs). It fits perfectly and the selector mechanism works. At $33.33, it's a bit pricier than the other listing for a similar plate, but it did the job. The confusion in specs is annoying, but if you need a replacement, it's functional. Just double-check that you're getting the right plate number.
