Our Take
The NordicTrack iSelect Adjustable Dumbbells are a voice-controlled weight set designed to work with Amazon Alexa, letting users change resistance hands-free via voice command. Aimed at tech-forward home gym enthusiasts who want seamless workout integration, they sit at the premium end of the adjustable dumbbell market and compete with Bowflex and PowerBlock equivalents.
Key Features
Weight adjusts via Amazon Alexa voice commands — simply say the weight you want
Each dumbbell adjusts across multiple resistance levels, ranging from approximately 5 lb up to 50 lb (around 2.3–22.7 kg) per hand
Manual dial adjustment also available as a backup if voice control isn't used
Rectangular, selectorised dumbbell design with a weighted tray/cradle system for plate storage
Requires a compatible Amazon Alexa device for full voice functionality
Relatively compact footprint compared to a full rack of fixed dumbbells
Our Verdict
Best suited to dedicated NordicTrack or smart-home enthusiasts who genuinely want voice-integrated training. For most buyers, though, the Alexa novelty wears thin quickly, and rivals like Bowflex SelectTech or PowerBlock offer comparable versatility at a more sensible price point without the technology dependency.
