I'm in blobby winter shape right now. I live in an area of the country with harsh, crappy winters that prevent me from wanting to ever leave my house unless I have to, so my gym membership gathers dust. I'm also pretty naturally lazy, so I need to be able to get obsessed with something to do it consistently. This product fit my needs perfectly in the following ways: -When I rowed in school, we used fancy concept2 ergs for training purposes. I always found them lacking the romance of why i started rowing to begin with -- wanting to be out on the water. Concept2 is an amazing machine but I have come to associate it with a certain kind of self torture that I wanted to get away from. The water rower makes a pretty good replica of being in a boat. The only thing missing is the CHUNK CHUNK of the oars on each stroke and the fact that rowing is a sport that takes place so early in the morning it may as well be the middle of the damn night. -I have a decent amount of floor space in my apartment but this thing is pretty long. It takes up a fair amount of real estate when it's deployed. I leave it out. All the time. Right in the middle of everything. I encounter it just chilling in my living room and rather than climb OVER it to the couch, i climb on and row a couple KM. Thus, it is more convenient to row than to just lounge on the couch. Optimal for combatting my laziness with more of my laziness. That way my future couch dwelling is well earned. -The stand. I have a few annoyed things to say here, and i almost shaved off a star because of what a pain in the beans the stand was to assemble, but the stand winds up being a net positive despite what an enormous pain in the rear putting it on was. Other people have noted that the stand is a challenge and that was a bit of an underestimation. Here's what has to happen for the stand. You have to take off the little rubber feet that are already on the bottoms of the rails. The screws are in the center of them and they are in TIGHT. But getting them out by hand with a screwdriver is possible. Now you'd think that having just extracted the exact screws from the unit would mean that reattaching screws into the same holes with a bracket instead of little rubber feet would be a relatively simple to-do. You would be wrong. The wood is very hard and placing the brackets with just a screwdriver would be impossible for most humans. It was a challenge with a power drill. The instructions say to assemble the unit itself (which is really crazy easy, more on that later) and THEN swap the feet for the stand. I don't think that's the best way to do it. I did that and I had to be extra gentle so as not to mess with the tank assembly or hurt it. I don't know who the giants are who can do the stand assembly with the unit standing on end, that's like 7 feet in the air. I know most rowers are very tall but I'm not one of them. I had to lay it down. I'd do the stand on the rails after you get the rear spacer on but before the tank assembly. I don't think placing the tank and footboard would be any harder on the stand than on the floor level but doing the stand after is very hard. You don't want to drive screws against gravity so flipping it over first and just doing them with the rails flat on the ground is the way to go. ONCE THE STAND IS ON it makes a huge difference. My mom who is ageing is able to use the machine a lot easier now that it's up off the floor. Getting on the floor can be rough on the knees so the elevation of the stand is a must. - The assembly of the body of the machine was very easy. It would have taken about an hour if not for the stand. I was able to do it all by myself up until the feet got involved. (I am a 5'2 lady.) You might have to push or pull or lean on pieces to get the holes lined up exactly, but I didn't have to bring in any extra tools. -Filling the tank is fairly easy. No muss no fuss. I recommend having a 5 gallon bucket present. that amount provides a decent starting point for rowing with. You can always add more. That filled the tank to about the "16" mark. I'm not really sure what the 16 represents. It provides a good starting point if you're just getting back into rowing or just getting used to the machine. -The sound it makes is so soothing. Very meditative. Part of why I got this particular machine was to enjoy that water sound again without needing to actually find a rowing club. -the monitor is just fine for my purposes. I need to figure out the details of it and I will hopefully update going forward. -The unit is very well made. The one thing that I think might break down over time is the bungee/strap that is actually bearing most of the load. The clip that holds the strap to the bungee is plastic. That looks like the most likely failure point. I will update if that happens. -previous commenters noted that the hardware came in a jumble. Clearly, the company sorted this out because mine came beautifully packaged and clearly labelled. -it's kind of expensive. I'm not even saying that's a bad thing. It is definitely sturdy and high quality, and I believe you get what you pay for. But the expense of it was part of my own manipulation of myself. I can't very well step over a thing that cost as much as a used 2001 honda civic and not sit on it and row, now can I? Exactly. Overall I recommend this machine to anyone who is needs a little push to get motivated and loves rowing on real water. Review: Row row row your boat and it sounds like it too! - My husband and I decided to purchase this row machine because I have to have everything matching and / or blending with my decor. We are getting older ... et em and well, need to tone up a bit but didn’t want a piece of equipment that likely would end up being a hanger for the clothes that don’t make it into the closet. Not only is this a beautiful piece of furniture that blends nicely when out (in the living room I might add) and stores quickly and easily, but we LOVE using it. The sound of the water takes you outside your living room to a serine spot to just row. You forget where you are - or maybe that’s because I am getting dizzy from my workout - in any event, it is low impact, easy to use, nice to look at and gives you a good workout without much effort. We absolutely love it and highly recommend. Top quality. Worth the investment! ## Features - The Original Waterrower - Handcrafted and Built to Last: Designed in the mid '80s by Yale and US National Team Rower John Duke. WaterRower continues to combine stylish design, handcrafted workmanship, our unique WaterFlywheel resistance and ethically sourced materials create the world's finest rowing simulator - Made in the USA - Hand-built in Rhode Island; all timber used in the manufacture of wooden WaterRower rowing machines is sourced from sustainably managed hardwood forests in the Appalachian Mountains.

It is a low impact cardiovascular exercise that puts less stress on your joints. Full body workout that includes your legs, core, back and arms. Perfect for all fitness levels.

Especially after a long training session. **Q: Can you adjust the tension on the rowing machine to make it more difficult ?** A: You cannot adjust the tension. These rowers are build to feel natural. So like water, the harder you row, the harder it fights back. **Q: Can it be used in a space 9 feet long by 3 1/2 feet wide? Want to get a rower for an apartment, and space is tight.** A: Yes! The space will be a little tight to walk around the tank, but you'll make it with a little bit of clearance to spare. I have mine tucked behind my couch with similar clearance. As long as it's not a high traffic area, you'll be fine. **Q: Does it came unassembly?, wich are the meassurements of the boxes?** A: Yes it comes unassembled. All you are really doing is adding the legs on which come in a separate box. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The stand assembly is a bit hairy but I highly recommend toughing it out. *by E***Y on January 31, 2018* I bought this rowing machine because I used to row in college, and that was the fittest I've ever been in my life.

Worth the investment! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Full Body Workout Without the Noise of Other Machines *by D***O on December 26, 2019* When researching purchasing a rowing machine, we came across reviews that listed this WaterRower as one of the top machines. When compared with the Concept2, to us, there was no contest. Who wants to put up with the harsh metallic noise of most rowers when we could listen to the relaxing swish of water you get with the WaterRower?! We ordered the WaterRower Club Rowing Machine w/ S4 Monitor & Hi Rise Attachment as a family Christmas gift, and it is a beautiful, furniture quality machine. Unfortunately, when we opened the package about a week before Christmas, we found that the tank was broken in several places. We emailed back and forth with the seller, Gronk Fitness Products, to get a replacement tank delivered before Christmas, so we could have the machine assembled and ready to use by December 25th. Gronk responded immediately, and was terrific to work with because they were courteous, timely, and sensitive to the fact that this was our family gift. The next time we need to purchase fitness products, we'll definitely check them out first! Because of having to replace the parts on the tank, our assembly time was probably doubled, but it would typically be pretty straightforward. As for the rower, we all love it! Just as soon as we filled the tank on the rower, I was on the seat, and rowing on this machine is a dream. It is quiet, relaxing and very effective at working the entire body. Can't wait to get today's workout in!
