Plain-English summary

Nautilus Inc. is recalling the Bowflex SelectTech 2080 Barbells with Curl Bar due to an impact injury hazard. The product consists of two metal bars, one straight and one curled, which are used one at a time. A weight plate can fall from the end of the barbell, posing a risk of impact injury.

Nautilus has received one report of a weight plate falling off the end of a barbell, causing property damage. No injuries have been reported. About 3,700 units were sold at Dick's Sporting Goods, Nebraska Furniture Mart, Play It Again Sports, and online at www.Bowflex.com and www.Amazon.com from June 2020 through July 2020 for about $550.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled barbells and contact Nautilus to receive a free kit with replacement straight and curl bars. Nautilus will ship a kit to customers who purchased the barbells directly from Nautilus. The barbells are black with a red Bowflex logo on the weight selector dial, and the storage tray is marked with the name "Bowflex" and the Bowflex logo in the center.
