Nautilus Inc. is recalling about 17,000 pairs of Bowflex SelectTech 1090 dumbbells because the weight selector dial can fail. This defect can cause heavy weight plates to fall unexpectedly when the dumbbell is lifted from its cradle, posing a significant injury hazard. There have been 16 reports of the selector dial failing, including three reports of injuries to the user's foot or leg. These black steel dumbbells were sold at sporting goods stores and online at Nautilus.com and other retailers between May 2011 and August 2011 for approximately $600.
The weight selector dial can malfunction and fail to secure the weight plates, causing them to fall off the handle during use or when lifted. This can lead to serious impact injuries, such as broken bones or bruising to the user's feet and legs.
Consumers should stop using the recalled dumbbells immediately and contact Nautilus for a free repair kit.
