There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Cons: Assembly instructions are terrible (the diagrams are made by someone 3D spacially challenged and the instructions are like "put the screws through the part". Yeah, thanks for that enlightenment.) I'd also say it could have used some casters/wheels on the main unit to make the device move around once folded easier...it's pretty heavy so moving it is not the easiest thing in the world, but not impossible. The foot pegs also seem a little flimsy and made of plastic.
Overall pretty happy with the purchase. Haven't had it long enough to test longevity, but so far it works as advertised.
Updated: Having had this a bit, I would say the foot pedals are easily the worst part of the design. I have to put my feet under the petals and on the floor to really get a push, as the foot pedals pivot at an awkward angle for me such that it is really easy for my foot to pivot out of the straps mid row causing me to yell obscenities and scare the cat. Most rowers have a solid base to push off from, this has a pivot design which really doesn't work well. The pedals also don't fit some of my shoes at the bottom as I have flat feet (size 11.5). Much better designs out there for the foot placement for sure, I've used many at the gym (when those were a thing). But, to be fair, this is not a gym quality rower, it's a home rower...and for the price I still think it was worth it and I'm still using it 2x per week. But I'd probably look at the Concept 2 rower if I were buying again. Three times the price of this unit, so there's that, but seems like a sturdier unit and more gym quality. And also works with Kinomap, if that's what you're looking for.
Kinomap, the app it uses, is not technically part of the rower, but it is made by a French company and English I don't think is the primary language of the users, so there is little, if any, English language user experience videos out there to really tell you how to maximize the use of the app. The videos are great, however, and really add to the fun of using the unit. I just wish someone could explain how the racing works, what all the selections do, etc. and usually there are youtube videos showing how to use it...I don't find anything but generic stuff out there. And since Kinomap also works with spin bikes and treadmills (and I think was originally designed to be a spin bike app, rower added after the fact), the rower specific youtube stuff is very few and far between and the number of rower videos in Kinomap is less expansive than bike/treadmill vids.
But, overall...this is a cool unit, VERY quiet (except my expletives when my foot comes loose), and very price competitive and sturdy.
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2024
There is one major flaw, however. The straps and foot holders are terribly designed. I am a tall person and have larger feet than average (size 15) and these foot straps are terrible. I wrench the straps on my feet as tightly as I can so I am not slipping all over the place and it only takes around 2 minutes of rowing for them to loosen enough for my feet to be slipping out of the foot holders. It is incredibly frustrating since it is usually around the 2 minute mark that I am just getting into a rhythm and now I have to stop, adjust the straps again, and then start again.
This would be easily fixed if they just made the lip on the bottom of the foot holders just a little larger. The lip only extends out about half an inch, so the sole of my shoe rises up over that lip even with my foot flat. Maybe I just need to try using different shoes, but this one major flaw has been making me not want to use the otherwise very nice piece of equipment I just got.

Oh yeah and the app to track your workouts is horrible. Kg, not lbs, etc. etc...

La utilización es muy eficaz, realmente no pongo la potencia completa, estoy a menos de la mitad porque sí que ofrece resistencia.
Delivery was super quick, I ordered it last night and it came this afternoon, easy to put together, and it’s nice and strong and sturdy, and quiet to, will definitely be using it every day, especially with the Kinomap to keep you interest And motivated, at first I was having trouble connecting it to Kinomap app but once I downloaded the machine app (fitness data) it worked fine.
Produit parfait, facile à monter, très agréable à l'utilisation : silencieux, facile à relever pour stockage sans encombrement. Par contre, l'application à télécharger via le QR-Code ne sert strictement à rien, impossible d'entrer autre chose que les données personnelles.
Der Aufbau verlief dank deutscher detaillierter Montageanleitung mit ca. 20 Minuten recht fix. Ich brachte kein extra Werkzeug, da einfaches, aber ausreichendes Werkzeug beilag.
In der Anleitung befand sich ebenfalls ein QR-Code für eine Android- und App. Die Installation verlief reibungslos, bei der Verbindung per Bluetooth mit dem Gerät musste ich jedoch WLAN und meinen Standort freigeben. Danach wurde direkt entweder nach einem Tastendruck der Bedienoberfläche des Rudergeräts, oder nach einmaligem Ziehen der Ruderschnur das Display aktiviert und schlussendlich damit die Bluetoothverbindung aktiviert. Somit wurde das Rudergerät auch direkt von der App gefunden. Danach gab es direkt eine Liveübertragung der Werte. Zugegeben, es handelt sich um eine simple App, welche mir jedoch auf Grund des großen Displays (Ich benutze ein Tablet) und der Trainingshistorie einen Mehrwert bietet.
Auch gibt es die Möglichkeit, sich mit der Kinomap App zu verbinden, was bei mir nur funktioniert, wenn auch die andere App installiert ist. Dennoch muss ich dann nur die Kinomap App starten. Es macht viel spaß die einzelnen Ruderprogramme mit den Übungsvideos inklusive Streckenverlauf zu bewältigen.
Auch ist dank der Lautstärke der Rudermaschine nebenbei Fernsehen, oder Netflix schauen kein Problem. Die Geräuschkulisse ist mit ca 45 db sehr leise.
Es ist löblich, dass in der Anleitung ebenfalls bebildert gezeigt wird, wie man richtig rudert. Ich persönlich habe es jedoch in mehreren Youtube Videos verständlicher nachvollziehen können.
Ich habe mir eine Rudermaschine gekauft, da ich seit mehreren Monaten Rückenschmerzen habe und mich auf Grund meines Bürojobs gerne sportlicher betätigen wollte, auch wenn es draußen mal kälter ist.
Nach einer Woche (alle 2 Tage 20 min Training) waren meine Rückenschmerzen weg. Geil!
Die Verabrietung des Gerätes ist solide. die wichtigen Bauteile bestehen aus stabil aussehendem Metall. Nur die Schale vom Ruderkorpus besteht aus Kunststoff, was etwas billig aussieht.
Die Ruderschnur erinnert an einen Autogurt, welcher auch ebenfalls wie ein Autogurt mehrfach vernäht wurde.
Der Schlitten ist auch nach einer halben Stunde Training nicht unbequem und er ist vor allem leise. Jeweils auf beiden Seiten sitzt man auf drei großen Kunststoffrollen in einem Aluminiumslider. Vorsichtshalber habe ich es dennoch mit etwas Silikonspray "getunt". Ob es jetzt noch leiser ist, konnte ich aber nicht feststellen.
Im Betrieb funktioniert das magnetische Bremssystem angenehm gut. Man wird zur richtigen Zeit zurückgezogen und es wirkt wie authentische Bewegungsabläufe.
Etwas besser hätte der Hersteller jedoch das Display, bzw. die Tablethalterung konstruieren können, da sie unnötigerweise etwas Platz im aufgestelltem Zustand wegnimmt. Wenn man diese zusammenklappen könnte, wäre es optimal.
Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Kauf, da mir der Kauf einer einfach hydraulischen zu wenig, jedoch einer 1000€ Maschine zu teuer war. Somit bekommt man für den Preis ein eine gute Leistung.
