I put it together myself, the screws needed to be rethreaded for the #36 parts, but it could be done with another stopper easily. The workouts are solid and I left the water level low to build tolerance and work on technique, but it’s still a great workout. You can grade it so easily and it’s awesome to be able to get some arm/core work in with additional exercises. It’s an all-in-one piece of equipment and it was worth the investment. My one gripe is that the adjustable pieces for your feet are made for people with large feet. I’m a woman’s size 8 and I’m using the last hole. There’s so much extra plastic sticking up that it’s in the way of the handles. Because of that placement, the band goes across the top of my foot where my toes should extend, rather than over the top of the foot/over my arch. It’s manageable and some shoes work with it better than others... oddly. Great product though!

I've only had this item a week and used it 3 times. The seat sometimes makes a sound like it's about to break. It makes a big crack when I get on. It seems to glide smoothly, but I do worry how long this machine will withstand the test of time and rigorous use (thanks to the pandemic, we've cancelled our gym memberships and plan to do home workouts for quite a while). It's a fairly expensive machine, and I'm hoping it's worth the money. Otherwise, it's pretty smooth and I do like it very much.

5 Stars! It does the job. The rower arrived earlier than I anticipated, I suggest getting a second person to help you with the transferring of the box and the assembly. The assembly did not take long (but it can get a little frustrating.) I love the size, it looks perfect in my small living room, it gives it a little touch and it looks great. The rower Sounds and feels smooth, the seat glides back smoothly and that’s an A+ for me. There are minor things: the back of the foot placement can get uncomfortable as you slide back, the monitor takes a little while to turn off but it doesn’t bother me as it gives me enough time to write down the info, pick up a call, or run after my kids. The belt can get out of the second wheel if you’re not careful in maintain it aligned, the worst it can happened is getting it tangled in the first wheel. But overall those are minor things for me. You will still get a good work out even if you stroke 30/min for 15 mins on water level 1! Don’t forget to add strength training exercises before a rowing session. I am happy with my purchase.

We ordered this machine to replace our old treadmill that died. We had never had a rowing machine before and we are so glad we gave it a try. Both my husband (6'4") and I (5'6") like to use it. It's quiet enough that I can watch a movie while rowing. It's really fun!

Very glad I made the purchase. I don't have time to work out a lot and this rower has been a life changer for me. I only need 20 mins to feel it working my whole body. Although shipping took longer than expected, I'm still satisifed with the quality of the product itself.

Absolutely love this rower. It's very sturdy and works well. We've had it for a few months now and it's working perfectly.
