Bent over rows shouldn't stress the lower back if you do them right.

Agreed. Atleast not to significantly IMO. I mean when you bench you stress your Abs to some degree, but not enough to build them.

dumbell bent over rows

I agree that dumbell rows are easier on my back than barbell rows. doing all the work that I do involving my back, I want as little stress on my low back as possible. With my olympic dumbells I can add all the weight I want too.
