Does anybody know how many bowflexes in total were sold? -Unknown
There are so many models going back to the inception of the machine. Recalls have been made on several models and those recalls indicate something about the models sold: This indicates the following: The Associated Press Nov. 16, 2004 - ...The latest recall affects 680,000 Bowflex Power Pro systems and 102,000 Bowflex Ultimate Fitness Machines, manufactured by The Nautilus Group, of Vancouver, Wash....
is there some category relating to marketing fads or manias that this could be added to? the bowflex seems like more a triumph of marketing pandering to fantasy than anything else. I would also like to know who got rich off it? And what other infomercial fads are they now flogging to the hypnotized millions?
The current version of the article is ridiculously one-sided. Could've been writen by the marketing staff att Bowflex. Kanaman 12:28, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
I can assure you the marketing staff at Nautilus (Bowflex) has not written this article. I would know. I work for Bowflex. I would be happy to update the page with the correct info. Sir ian of krypton 1:00 13 Febuary 2007 (UTC)
I have gone ahead and cleaned up the article with new information like prices and details. Also added refrences. Someone who knows the proper formatting might want to go in and put where the references go, I know where, but dont know how to do it.--

how about someone writing about their credit offer to sell you the 2k item for $20 a month for lord knows how long? i've seen the ads and have always been curious as to how much one would end up paying and, from that, wondered if they were ripping people off royally.
Wouldn't it make sense to point out something like this:

While I respect the conclusion of the deletion discussion from 2004, that the Bowflex itself qualifies as notable, I question the need for the extensive list of models which currently comprises most of the article. After all, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. If people wanted that information, I'm sure they could easily find it on the website.

Why does NordicTrack redirect to this article? Is NordicTrack associated with BowFlex? Right now it is only mentioned in the See Also section. — Ost ( talk) 22:20, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
Why in the world would Pearl Izumi redirect here? The two don't seem related at all. -- BennyD ( talk) 16:00, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
It would be very nice to see some objective analysis as to whether or not these things actually work. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.222.246.177 ( talk) 06:23, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
Do you think this section is relevant or necessary? Bowflex goes to great lengths to explain how to use their products safely and that it's crucial to do so. Nonetheless, it's not difficult to kill or seriously injure one's self by deliberately misusing any product of this type. Documenting such irresponsibility here seems unfairly negative.— Preceding unsigned comment added by AndyFielding ( talk • contribs) 03:11, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
I noticed that there were flags for marketing language, so I went ahead and removed such jargon. Also, I made sure to remove all references that cited the company website and replaced them with 3rd party additional citations. DeskSitter ( talk) 21:25, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
I agree with your edits to remove the marketing language as well as replacing the first party citations. I also noticed that the lead section needed to be beefed up and went ahead and elaborated on this section. I will go ahead and remove all three flags. CafeNoName ( talk) 17:56, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
