Our Take

The Bowflex SelectTech 840 is a dial-adjustable kettlebell that replaces six separate weights in a single unit, ranging from approximately 8 lb to 40 lb (roughly 3.6–18 kg). It suits home gym users with limited space who want versatility across strength and conditioning work, sitting at the premium end of the adjustable kettlebell market.

Key Features

Six weight settings selectable via a twist-dial mechanism without disassembly

Weight range: 8, 12, 20, 25, 35, and 40 lb (approximately 3.6 to 18 kg)

Compact storage tray included to hold unused weight plates

Moulded handle designed to mimic a traditional kettlebell grip width

Plastic and metal composite construction rather than solid cast iron

Compatible with the Bowflex SelectTech app for guided workouts

Our Verdict

A sensible buy for home gym owners juggling limited space who train across a range of movements and need multiple weights on a budget of floor space rather than necessarily money. Serious kettlebell enthusiasts or those regularly training above 18 kg will find it limiting and should consider traditional cast-iron sets instead.

What We Like

  • Genuinely replaces multiple kettlebells, saving significant floor space
  • Weight changes take seconds, making circuit training practical at home
  • The dial mechanism is robust and reliable in everyday use
  • Competitive cost per kg compared with buying six individual kettlebells

Things to Consider

  • The bulkier profile affects technique on movements like swings and cleans compared to cast-iron bells
  • Plastic housing feels less durable under heavy, repeated ballistic use
  • Tops out at 40 lb, which limits progression for more experienced lifters
  • Premium price upfront is a barrier if you only need one or two weight settings
