To those that care the new dumbbell are identical to the old ones just with metal discs now. Having metal instead of plastic that can wear or break should make them less prone to the weights falling out.

Long story short, this means that the new owner is screwing their past customers...so it's best to avoid that brand altogether for now on. Johnson Health Tech also now owns Schwinn branded products, so I'd avoid those too.
The 4-15-24 cutoff is tied to the bankruptcy of the prior owner of Bowflex (Nautilus, Inc) and the new owner (Johnson Health Tech, a Taiwan based firm). The new owner is legally obligated to offer replacement as of when they took ownership of the brand. They get away with screwing customers who purchased the dumbells prior to their purchase of the brand, which is why they are getting away with offering a $20-$60 payoff. It's reasonable to assume that they knew of the issue prior to purchasing the brand...so it's not like the recall came as a surprise to them.
