Echelon Row-s Connected Rowing Machine

Great product!!!

Love my row! Having the screen on the rowing machine makes it easy and seamless to connect right into my classes!

I love my rower, I believe that it is the best investment in my health that I could have made. I have bad knees and feet that use to limit the way I worked out, but now with the rower I am able to get in a great workout everyday of the week!_x000D_ The only downside for me are the live classes, they start to early for me so I just use the VOD classes and workout by myself.

Awesome! ....... 'Nuff said.

Being unfamiliar with rowing, I was super impressed with the variety of classes available. The instructors are excellent. I love the leaderboard and how it pushes me to do better. I love how there are bootcamp classes that already incorporate weight training, and the diversity of fitpass. I also love that that there are separate warmup and cooldown programs. Somedays I am short on time while others I'm all for an extra ten minute cooldown. I also love that I can cooldown with yoga, stretching or continued rowing. Although I really do love my rower, there are a few criticisms as well. As with any piece of technology, there are times the connection stops. Often this is when I start, and it fixes simply by restarting. This wastes a few minutes and is only a small annoyance. However, when you are racing during a workout and the connection is lost, it is much more annoying when your stats are lost and you have to start over. This has only happened twice, but I have to reset the rower when I start a workout several times a week. You can't use the rower if the connection isn't registering- it is a bigger problem than it not showing your stats, it does not work at all. My other annoyance is that there is no manual mode or ability to continue the workout once the video completes. Although I worked hard and burned 295 calories, there are times I really want to go another minute to reach that 300 calorie goal. I also found the music to be a bit disappointing. I was hoping the use of popular songs would really pump me up, but it is barely noticeable. Luckily, the instructions are very efficient at getting me excited! Overall, I do really love this machine and that it offers a wide variety of workouts. I have found rowing to be my favorite form of cardiovascular exercise! I am not disappointed I chose to invest in this machine!
