5.0 out of 5 stars Great piece of exercise equipment with a small footprint if stood on its end when not in use.

K. · 16 June 2025

Was very well packaged. Has a small footprint so we stand it on its end when not in use.Easy to use and comfortable seat. Foot straps don’t need to be adjusted every time we just slide our feet in.The electric reader is handy to see how many you have done/how long etc and use it in conjunction with fitness watch.Only thing I’m not keen on is the foam grip as, although comfy, I don’t like the smell it leaves on m hands but I am super sensitive to smell and my husband has no issues with it.The difficulty is easily adjusted by turning the collar, which is marked up with difficulty levels.Seems there’s more than enough growth in the difficulty levels as I could barely move the most difficult!It’s smooth and we haven’t experienced any squeaks or anything either so far and it’s used at least twice a day.Be careful of the piston as it says it gets hot during use and you can feel the heat come off of it.Would recommend, a decent piece of exercise equipment.

This came today fairly easy to put together,bit heavier than I expected but saying that for the price it’s well worth it, make sure you put the tension at 1/2 for starters like me,even after 5 mins I could feel it working on my back and knees.make sure you read the assembly instructions although it’s really not difficult to assemble best to be safe than sorry.the calculator is a bit of a pain until you really read the instructions and to turn it off you press the red button until you have a blank screen.I am pleased with the purchase and definitely recommend it.If your tall it wouldn’t suit as I’m 5’4 and it’s just right for me and ideal for the older person like me who 70 and haven’t exercised for years,happy rowing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delighted with this

Firstly I bought one of these cheap rowing machines from Argos so nearly didn't buy this one, the Argos one went back same day as it was ridiculous trying to put it together and didn't look strong, I felt like I would fall off it.This one all you do is screw in a couple of parts, I mean just a couple, even the rubber was on the handlebars and I know some people had issues with that.I have MS and was a bit scared it would be flimsy like the one I returned but it's not. This machine really does feel sturdy. I'm 5' 5" and 12 stone, hence the reason for purchase. I felt quite safe on it, the seat is wide enough for my fat bahookie and comfortable enough. Did it for 5 minutes on the lowest setting then came off. I intend to start with 5 minutes a few times a day then build up to longer sessions.The reason for 4 stars is that the display thingy doesn't appear to be working well at all, not that I need it, maybe I haven't worked that out yet. I also don't think it's suitable for anyone much taller than me if you want a full leg stretch on the pull, maybe 5' 10" or something would be OK. I think this is the perfect machine for someone like me, disabled or mature that just wants to get fit at a nice slow pace to suit. Laughing now, when I first started to try the very first pull I thought the hydraulic thing was broken because it wouldn't move, turns out it was just at the higher setting and I'm a wimp, so watch for that one. I've used rowing machines in the gym and have to say I'm really happy with what I got for this price and having it in the house means I can suit myself when I use it.

This machine was so easy to put together. Most of it was already fixed in place and what was left to do needed a couple of tools, which were supplied, so you don’t even need a tool kit! Even the little computer that counts your rowing, calories etc. come with batteries supplied. It took me 5 minutes to set it up!It has 12 settings. I started at number 1, but that offered absolutely no resistance, so I upped it until I was comfortable with number 9. After a few days, I put it up to number 10 and I’m happy with that. I only do about 10 minutes every morning and sometimes through the day. I really enjoy it. It is a workout for your entire body, but unlike other exercises, I don’t hurt myself. I bought it because I had become so unfit during lockdown. This builds strength in your entire body. I read the reviews first and that’s what convinced me to buy it. It’s worth every penny, and actually it was quite cheap considering how well made it is. And if you’re not a ‘gym’ person, but want to get fit, this definitely helps!

Brilliant rowing machine for the money, has many levels of difficulty

3.0 out of 5 stars Mixed bag

A.C. · 2 June 2025

It is comfortable, light and easy to use,however once you start exercising the tube of the gas strut gets really hot and you can burn yourself if you accidentallytouch it. Furthermore,it gets really noisy and squeaky and this becomes a burden to experience. Mixed feelings on this one.

I received the package today at 2:09 pm. I ripped it out of the box and was momentarily confused. On first glance it looked almost entirely assembled. After ripping open the plastic, I noticed it needed 3 things- handle bar, connecting the arm to the hydraulic and releasing the back bar. It was such a simple operation. There was no crazy fluff with the packaging so clean up was a breeze. I immediately hopped on and was impressed. I went slowly and did 5 minutes in my living room. I then moved it outside, it is SO light. I can carry one handed if I wanted to. It fits nicely in the space I set aside. The monitor is incredibly easy to use and to watch while working out. I noticed some other reviews that said it was complicated. I'm not sure why someone would feel that way, maybe they have updated it since previous reviews? Either way, I was pleasantly surprised and had no issues. Now, onto the machine's resistance which seems to be a great debate among other reviewers... Once I moved it outside I adjusted the resistance level from 1 to 3 and did a full 15 minutes. I did experience some change in the resistance towards the end but I realized that I had shortened my strokes as I got faster. Once I corrected my form, the resistance was consistent. So to clarify, I did not experience a loss of resistance. However, how it stands up over time is still a debate. I did not go particularly fast but maintained a steady pace from beginning to end. Another point some reviewers brought up was size, I am 5'4 and 220 lbs. Yes, I'm fluffy lol I had no problems. The seat could use a bit more padding but once I moved forward a little I found the sweet spot. The one *potential* problem I've noticed is that the foot rests don't seem to be very sturdy. At one point I had to adjust my feet because I noticed the fronts were slightly bending the plastic back. Maybe they are meant to have some give? I'm not sure. They felt as if they will be the first thing that needs to be replaced down the road.Highlights:Value- 5Size- 5Weight- 5Packaging- 5Assembly- 5Stability- 4.5Resistance- 5Performance- 5Conclusion: Is this a gym quality machine? Nope. Is it functional, practical and worth buying? Yes. This is not something I would recommend to an Olympian but for the average person looking to burn a few calories while watching TV, this is the way to go.Update as of 3/22/2020, When I wrote the first review, I weighed 220 lbs. I now weigh 154. I'm 14 lbs from my goal weight. The rower still works like a breeze. I use my treadmill and bike for heavy cardio but the rower is still a staple. It is amazing for cross training. The foot rests still haven't broken, so that is a plus 😂 Still no loss in resistance. Now that I am in better shape, I notice that if I go fast, I can actually slide it across my floor with the momentum. I put it on .5 inch gym flooring and have had no issue since.My boyfriend who is 5'10, 180 lbs and a hardcore volleyball player is in love with this thing. According to him, it isn't a true rower but works on his muscular imbalances caused by playing one sport.I've though about upgrading to a more advanced rower but who am I kidding? I'm not a professional and it still does what I purchased it for. No complaints.On a side note, I made significant lifestyle changes to accomplish my weight loss. When I first started and couldn't walk more than 5 minutes at a time, this rower was a true challenge but I outgrew it about a month in and started regularly walking. I no longer use it every day, maybe 3-5 times a month for about 25-30 minutes.

Bra även för otränade personer.

Reçu rapidement, très facile a monter et prend peu de place. C'est mon 1er rameur mais je le trouve très pratique.
