I dont normally post reviews but I had to for this purchase.
It was really easy to assemble. The unit looks amazing and really convenient to put away when not using it. Over the last week I have gotten into a great routine of 500 strokes a day. Takes about 20-22 mins. Looking forward to my 30 day progress. Oh this tower is super quiet; great for an apartment.
The rowing action is smooth with very natural resistance - much like rowing in water which is aided by the swishing sound of the water in the round drum on each stroke. The foot pedal points secure the feet nicely and is fully adjustable while the seat smoothly runs on the track without noise or friction. The display is excellent and easy to use and read while working out. The rowing machine is a real hand crafted piece of art with beautiful selected oak and walnut woods . I really recommend this.

This rower has lived up to my expectations and exceeded them. Its super easy to put together, sturdy and attractive in our home gym. It has a unique look that doesnt look too much like a machine which adds character. The workouts have been great. Keep in mind, you cannot add resistance to the machine artificially. The harder/faster you row, the better the workout. I prefer that aspect. Its extremely smooth and relatively quiet. The seller was phenomenal in helping us with a slight blemish on the rower. Weve had it for a few months now and it gets used roughly 8 times per week so I can attest to the robustness. Highly recommended!

I spent a lot of time researching rowers. Product was easy to assemble and provides a great workout. no need to spend big money on a wood rower when you can buy this one and get the same workout with a quality product and save money as well.

Just received my new rower and hubby and I assembled it in about a half hour. It's a simple design, looks really nice and is sturdy. I did my first workout today and feel great! This is going to be my new workout while my ankle injury heals. It's time for a lower impact cardio workout and this fits the bill. Oh yeah, it's super quiet and the whooshing sound the water makes is soothing.

I've had this for about a week now and I've gotta say it's an excellent product.

The assembly took about an hour, there were some comments on the instructions. The only thing that took me a moment is the "A" screws are the two pieces at the bottom of the package, kind of a screw and nut.

As others had indicated I enjoy the sound, the swirling water sound is more pleasant than the air noise you get on a typical rower.

I really like the rollers on the seat, sometimes they'll have metal on metal where it has this almost gritty slide. These are so smooth you don't get any of that sliding back and forth.

It also looks amazing.

I couldn't be happier with the purchase.
