Great Rower!

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2017

Easy to assemble and easy to use rowing machine! I couldn’t believe how quickly I put it together - don’t pay for the install, do it yourself. Great full body workout with a simple display screen and an easy adjustment knob. I would give it a 4.5 if I could only because the machine doesn’t count how many meters you row. Many of the workouts I want to try go off of meters, so that’s the only downside. Otherwise great machine. I got the protection just in case, but so far it’s been really sturdy. Also, easy to fold and put away which is nice

Just say no! Piece of crap with pieces missing and computer is always at zero and stop mode. Even removing batteries as in instructions doesn’t help. DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF CRAP. NOT WORTH THE MONEY SPENT.

I'm actively working out in a cardiac rehab program twice a week. I'm setting myself up a home gym and wanted a rower to use on the days I don[t go to my program. After checking out several options I ordered this one. It fits my needs nicely--and is functionally as good for my purposes as the commercial units that they use at my rehab program. The assembly of this unit was pretty easy, and if I were nit-picky, I would say that the seat is not as comfortable as found on those big expensive commercial ones--but it's not anything I would object over. I've already recommended this rowing machine to other members of my cardio class.

Good value for the cost; don’t store vertically for child safety reasons

PROs: This is as good as $1000 rowing machine you might find in a gym, is quiet, and will give you a full body workout. It took 20 minutes to assemble (1 person and not an engineer!), and is compact in terms of saving space.

CONs: If you have small children in the home, don’t store it in the vertical position unless it’s in a locked closet because it poses a serious risk of injury by being pulled down or falling. I’m somewhat petite (5’5) and my feet (in size 9 running shoes) tend to start slipping out of the foot braces as I get going. This is because you can adjust the tightness of the Velcro straps but not their relative position around your foot, so because the default foot size is for a bigger person the Velcro is around the front (rather than center) of my foot. However, many women and smaller framed people will have the same issues with proportions of various gym equipment.

I read a number of reviews online for rowing machines under $300 and this one was highly rated. All considered, it’s a very good buy for the price point.

Decent Machine. Impressive Customer Service.

The rower itself is a basic, quiet, perfectly fine machine. Good value for the money. But that is not what prompted me to write this review. After installation, the LCD display didn’t work. After a bit of searching, I found a way to contact the seller to have them advise of a solution. They were truly impressive in the promptness of replies, the level of understanding of the problem and their willingness and eagerness to fine a solution. They promptly sent me another display, and instructed me on how to install it. Frankly, a lot of sellers could learn a thing or two from them on how to work with their customers.
