Latest News About Tzumi Fitrx Dumbbell Recall

Here’s what I can share about the latest on the Tzumi FitRx dumbbell recall.

• The FitRx SmartBell XL Quick-Select adjustable dumbbells were recalled in 2025 due to an injury risk from weight plates that can dislodge during use. The recall affected units sold primarily through Walmart online channels, with several dozen reported incidents and multiple injuries reported by the CPSC and recall notices.[3][5][7]
• In 2025-2026, class actions and consumer lawsuits emerged arguing that the recall did not provide a permanent fix and that the product remained dangerous or devalued for owners, with plaintiffs seeking broader remedies beyond the recall repair program.[1][3]
• Consumer guidance from the recall notices includes stopping use immediately, contacting Tzumi for a free repair (new handle and tray), and following disposal or replacement instructions tied to registration of the recall on the manufacturer’s site. Some notices also include interim measures like marking or disposing of recalled units after confirming repair eligibility.[5][7][1]

Practical takeaways

• If you own FitRx adjustable dumbbells, stop using them and check the model/serial information against CPSC recall notices to confirm eligibility for a free repair or replacement setup.[7][5]
• If you’ve experienced any weight-plate dislodgement or injury, document dates, photos, and any medical reports, and consult the recall resources or consumer-law resources in your state; class-action activity has been reported in relation to the recall.[1][3]
• For safety, avoid attempting ad-hoc repairs or continuing use until you’ve confirmed a formal repair/replacement path with the manufacturer or retailer.[5][7]
