Looks stunning, really solid construction, very quiet operation, well packaged/protected and the best assembly instructions I have come across. Recommended!

"Have this Love it"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Found this easy to assemble on my own. Not having a rowing machine before I quickly became aware 1,2,3, were useless to me so starting with 4 is ideal for me.

"All Round Great"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The easiest thing to put together. The instructions were super simple, all the parts were labeled with which step they were required for. So far it runs amazingly and fits away quite snuggly in the corner when not in use

"Low durability"
1 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The affordable price is no excuse for the incredibly low durability. How low? In my experience – less than 100 rows before the foot-strap defect revealed itself. Generally the whole foot assembly is poorly designed from flimsy moulded plastic, held in place by long M12 bolts. These can't be fully tightened, so would need regular checking. At around $4 a stroke, this is about the worst value rower around. A design defect, rather than just bad quality control, appears to be the cause. In either case I'm left wondering how much longer till something else goes. Look elsewhere for a cheap rowing machine.
