Flywheel Rowing Machine - SF-RW5856

I am really glad I bought this model rower. I was looking at water rowers, but have a super small space, and wanted a silent rower. I was also balking at the prices of good water rowers and how loud they can be. I read reviews of many models, and listened to videos of the sound/loudness of each type. This fits my needs, with excellent resistance levels. The flywheel adds the feeling of more resistance for a harder pull, and a smooth stroke. I had an air rower chain drive previously. I never got over how loud it was. This is silent, but feels very similar. I hear the seat move and that's it. The belt drive is good quality, and quiet. The seat is very comfortable. The magnetic resistance is excellent. I feel strong resistance at level 3 and there are 8 total. I have plenty of room to grow. I find this really stretches my back out in the morning, is helping my posture, and i feel 'the burn' of the workout. It was packed very well, (probably important so the heavy flywheel stays aligned), was very easy to assemble, and is foldable if needed. The monitor seems to work, but i don't really look at it. I'd much rather the money is put into a quality machine and I can use my own HR chest strap and watch to track my workouts which is what I do. I love the magnetic resistance and flywheel. I rate this much better than a rower without the flywheel, and i prefer over an air rower for the quiet. I will keep this for a long time. Again, well built, and the 10 pound flywheel is totally worth the extra money for it. Update: I've had this for a few months now and it still works great. It would be nice if it had wheels or something to make it easier to move since I changed locations with it, but other than that I am still really pleased with this purchase and feel like this is a quality item.

I really like this rower machine. It ame packaged 53lbs withn 3 days of ordering. Set up was acinch. Took me 20 min. Instructions are very clear. Remember this a budget rower so ypur not getting Nordic trac or Peleton quality. That being said its solid and doea the basics very well. I weigh 260 amd it didnt shimmy shake rattle or make hardly any noise. Its very smooth and quiet. It folds up somewhat. It takes the removal of a lynch pin and know screw. Takes a minute to get it folded. The Lcd is a basic information tool. Very budget electronics. Not cusomizeable. However if you use a fitbit or smartwatch it isnt an issue. Tje seat and handle were reasonable comfortable. Foot rests were adequate. Again budget machine so its gonna lack some of the refinements of more expensive machines BUT gives you a decent workout. Definitely worth the investment. I bought tbianto try out rowing. So far im loving it. If it doesnt meet my needs as my workouts get better I'll by a more expensive machine. Dollar for dollar this is the best of the budget machines.

I’ve had the row machine for 2 weeks and so far I only have one complaint. The computer component never worked. For me it’s not that big of a deal. I don’t necessarily need to see numbers to know how hard I’m working. But let me tell you the workout is amazing! I’m pretty fit and very active and after 20 minutes I can feel every muscle in my body working. So in my opinion it’s a good value for the money. Glad I purchased it and hope that it lasts for many years before I upgrade.

This is tough workout but I noticed immediately that the tension needs to be set pretty high out of the box for me and I'm a pretty short stature male with no upper body to speak of! haha Even still I've been rocking the 10 setting and it goes to 16. That being said, this will work shoulder muscles that you didn't know existed. Rowing is an incredibly tough workout and I wanted something that engaged my upper body to complement my running. This works perfectly for me. Finally, my favorite part of this, is how easy it was to assemble and how easy it is to fold up and set up. The ease of use, quietness, and value both in cost and space savings makes this a wonderful addition to my routine. I noticed another reviewer say something about an exposed fly wheel and their kid getting their finger caught? Mine has a cover so I'm not sure if that was a recent update or something that the other user was missing but I wouldn't worry about that. Overall, I love this thing. I wish it were a bit sturdier but it's a cheap entry into the world of rowing!

This is my first rower; it seems to work well enough. I'm glad I got the model with the flywheel, because the magnetic resistance is negligible. Even at the highest setting, it feels like almost nothing. The difference between 1 and 16 resistance settings is approximately .00000001%; they may as well have just had 2 settings: easy, and easier. Even with the highest magnetic setting selected, you have to work super hard and fast to get what I would call a significant workout. The flywheel does get harder to pull the faster you go, but it's still nothing like rowing on an actual boat. This thing just needs more resistance! After 1 week of use, it creaks a little bit whenever the seat rolls past the main pivot joint where you fold it up for storage. There's a support leg here that is suspended in the air during exercise mode, and I'm not sure why they didn't just extend it so that it can touch the floor and prevent the stress/creaking on this crucial area. Hopefully it holds up and doesn't break. I might place something sturdy underneath it to help. The LCD display has somewhat helpful features, but it's not backlit and the screen is incredibly dim and not sharp, even with fresh batteries installed. You need a flashlight in order to see the numbers on the screen, even in a fairly well-lit room! It is fairly quiet (minus the recent creaking sound I mentioned), and has smooth operation. Overall decent quality, I just wish it had more resistance, comparable to maybe a Bowflex or something like that. "Sheerness" is a weird category for rating a piece of exercise equipment, so I did not submit any stars for that, but it was easy to put together, and fairly sturdy.

Excelente para ejercitarse, y muy práctico para uso y almacenaje

The product was delivered not working well

The product is great. Its smooth, easy to use, easy to understand and great the display. Was easy to set up. When my shipment did not arrive on time (twice) amazon was accommodating a great to deal with.

En la descripcion del producto dise que se puede usar de pie, cuando uno se pone de pie para usar la remadora, se mueve, el porta tablet no es lo suficiente amplia para ponerla con la proteccion,

They ask for extra change for assembly, which was not mentioned when we bought the item !!
