UNIQUE WATERFLYWHEEL
The WATERROWER's unique WaterFlywheel has been designed to reproduce the precise physical dynamics of a moving boat; the surest way to replicate the physiological benefits and aesthetic pleasure of rowing.
WHY WATER
INSTANT RESISTANCE
The WATERROWER's unique WaterFlywheel design uses a specially formed paddle to cup the moving water, reduce slippage and produce an unrivaled simulation of the benefits of rowing.
NO JERKING OR JARRING
There is no jerkiness or jarring which is often associated with conventional mechanical rowing machines making the exercise unpleasant; only smooth even load, kind to the body, and relaxing to the mind.
SMOOTH CONNECTION
There is no "solid" connection between user and the moving water, simply an immersed paddle which dampens out any detrimental mechanical feel Providing some "give" is essential for accommodating bad or developing technique, lessening the risk of injury.
EVEN STROKE
A uniform stroke is essential to spreading the work more evenly over the muscle groups, working the muscle groups in proportion to their strength, optimizing exercise benefit while reducing risk of injury.
S4 Monitor
The S4 Monitor measures the speed of the paddle using an infrared detector mounted on the underside of the top deck and a castellated Sensor Pickup mounted on the inner clutch bush. The motion of the paddle revolved the sensor disk which in turn triggers the infrared detector. S4 BLE also provides a built-in Bluetooth feature, allowing for seamless connection to our portfolio of popular indoor rowing apps, such as WATERROWER CONNECT and CITYROW.
Seating
A comfortable seat for rowing is essential for optimizing performance and ensuring a satisfying and effective workout experience. Provides proper cushioning and contouring, while minimizing pressure points and promotes healthy posture. Helps keep your focus on generating powerful and efficient strokes.
Wheels for mobility
Wheels for easing the movement of the machine provide an efficient solution to transporting the rower. These wheels are designed to enhance mobility and maneuverability in various settings, making it effortless to reposition and store without the need for excessive manual effort or additional equipment

So pleased that I purchased the lowest entry point model. The monitor, like most rowers, is like 1980’s tech. No backlighting. Very hard to read options unless the lighting is at the perfect angle. My needs are very basic and the A1 monitor delivers for me with the basic default info displayed. I like to just strap in and watch a video on the dark horse rowing site. Or just watch something on my iPad and row. Search for a video showing how to fill the tank by putting your water source bucket on top of the front deck. Also use a video to assist you in the easy step by step instructions. That will save you a lot of time. I filled my tank to 19, the highest setting and will leave it that way. Perfect. Monorail and seat are very smooth although slightly noisier than the dual rail models. Still very quiet. I purchased 4 additional seat wheels from the waterrower website and then bought some metric 8x1.25 stop nuts. Now the seat carriage is the same as the A1 Studio version and I am guessing will last a bit longer. So smooth. The rower is meditative to me with the water and the back and forth of the seat. Oddly soothing. I did not expect this and it is probably what has made me feel the happiest. It stores upright very easily. If I have one criticism it is that the wood finish is not what I had expected for a $900 machine. Wood finish is not smooth and is very flat in appearance. I may apply three more coats of danish oil and slurry it in with 600 grit sand paper on the first additional coat to get it to what I would expect. I think most people will be very well suited buying this model and not the more expensive models. You get the same pulley and water tank system. The seat is the same. The handle is the widest version. Adjustable foot straps. And since it’s a monorail, the footrests are wider apart making it much more comfortable to use when in the catch position. Even with the finish I think it is a very attractive and stylish piece of kit. Can’t imagine a better rower, if you are looking for a water version, for a better price.

Esta remadora me a encantado mucho porque es un manera bastante cómoda y práctica para comenzar a hacer ejercicio indoor y mi actividad favorita de cardio, me encanta su diseño y también su versatilidad ya que es muy sencilla de acomodar en cualquier habitación o sala ,el único inconveniente es que la pantalla está en una posición que no favorece a la postura a la hora de practicar el remo , ya que tendrás que bajar la cabeza y ver tus parámetros , pero en general es la mejor remadora en el mercado por su precio.

il prodotto in se meriterebbe 5 stelle, funzionale con un bel design. non gli do piu' di 3 stelle perchè:- consegna prevista tra il 3 ed il 6 novembre, in effetti e' arrivato il 16, dopo piu' di 2ogg dall'ordine, perche' semplicemente il fornitore non lo aveva spedito in tempo per disguido. AD ONOR DEL VERO IL VENDITORE MI HA RIMBORSATO 60 EURO PER SCUSARSI DEL DISGUIDO.- complicato il tracciamento del pacco in quanto spedizione internazionale gestito da 2 corrieri diversi.- montaggio abbastanza semplice, ma ricordatevi di serrare le viti solo alla fine altrimenti potreste trovare difficolta' negli incastri.- display non adeguato alla qualita' del prodotto, in bianco e nero e con il minimo indispensabile di resa dati, mi aspettavo di meglio.- forse sarebbe stato utile progettare una valvola di scarico dell'acqua, perche' in caso di trasferimento del vogatore diventa complicato e lungo svuotare il serbatoio o pesante trasportarlo pieno di acqua

È un vogatore veramente speciale: per come è fatto e per la sensazione che da quando lo si usa. Forse non risponde a tutte le più sofisticate tecnologie, ma non è questo il suo fine. Il suo scopo è quello di rendere bello e affascinante vogare in casa. L’aspetto estetico poi si commenta da solo.

Brilliant (relatively) compact version of the larger water rower. Couldn't be happier.All the quality, functionality and performance of its big brother, at a more affordable price. Easy to use, not too tricky to assemble (tip, fill the water slowly and keep checking it if you can't stand it upright to fill)' and the two man delivery team were great.Wonderfully smooth and quiet to use. Love the sound of the water. I've had to buy some gloves to row with, as I keep getting minor friction rubbing. I exercise most days now, because it's just so easy to hop into the machine.

Die Lieferung kam schneller als erwartet. Die Verpackung war überdurchschnittlich gut.Zum Waterrower an sich: Ich bin mit dem A1 mehr als zufrieden. Das Herzstück, also die Rudereinheit ist die gleiche wie bei allen anderen Modellen. Mir persönlich gefällt die Aluminium mono rail besser als das Vollholzmodell..Zum Computer: Wer seinen Waterrower nicht unbedingt mit dem Computer verbinden muss, ist mit dem einfacheren Computer im A1 auch bestens bedient.. Einzig den Puls kann man nicht einblenden... wem das die 300€mehr wert ist?? Ausserdem benötigt man hierfür noch ein Zusatzmodul und erst einen Brustgurt von Polar... Da hätte man eine neue Polar Pulsuhr auch schon drinnen...Mein fazit: Wer auf die Computer Anbindung verzichten kann und das schlichtere Design mit der Alu monorail besser gefällt, ist mit dem "Einsteigermodell" bestens bedient!Und das Gefühl, in einem echten Ruderboot zu sitzen, kommt an keinem Rudergerät anderer Hersteller so naturgetreu ran!

I am a graduate level student, and bought this machine to have in my apartment, for those times that I am too lazy to go to the gym after classes. I have had the machine for about 7 months now and love it. It was not difficult to put together, the instructions were fairly easy to follow and only took me about 45-65 minutes ( no more difficult than a piece of ikea furniture).The good: Solid! solid! construction, quiet, great monitor (simple stats), smooth and easy to use and overall great feel to the row, easily stands up on its end (has well constructed wheels to roll on) and fits in the corner of my room without any issue and takes up about 1.5X2 ft of space. Water tank is air tight! I also (sadly, at the age of 23) have back and knee problems, and conventional running on the sidewalk tends to kill my knees and make my back sore. This machine provides awesome cardio and has not once bothered my back or knees.The Bad: Filling the tank was cumbersome, and the included plastic manual pump (crud to start out with) had a crack in it, and did not keep a solid seal to fill the tank. (this was fixed with a little ingenuity and duct tape! but the pump is still crud). After about 40 minutes of filing my plastic recycling bin with water from the kitchen, holding the bucket at a level higher than the tank and vigorously pumping, the tank was full.My recommendation to ameliorate the situation would be to go to measure the diameter of a faucet that is closest to the area you will be keeping the rower, buy yourself some nice inexpensive tubing and stick that sucker on the faucet and fill the tank up directly.something like this would have done quite nicely.http://www.amazon.com/Watts-SVKI20-Pre-Cut-Diameter-20-Foot/dp/B0046ECL80/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1398126465&sr=8-3&keywords=clear+tubingThe only other issue is that you can not adjust the level of resistance without adjusting the volume in the tank ( read the above again if you think this is fun/easy). So I just keep it on the "max fill" and alter my workout by changing the distance/time/speed of my row. I would suggest the same, as the resistance at full is about what I need for a good work out.Bottom line: I would highly recommend buying this if any of the above (back/knee problems/ too lazy to go the gym) applies to you. It really is a wonderful machine with the exception of filling the darn tank! But you only need to do that once.If you're looking to make an investment in something you will probably have for a long period of time, this is the machine to buy. It is expensive, but you really do get what you pay for.

I actually wanted to rate this device lower than 5 stars as I was assembling it. More on that later. I have had it more than a week and use it every day, sometimes more than once. Others have touted its exercise benefits and I don't doubt those, but I think it is overlooked as a mind-focusing tool and a stress reliever. Although it's quiet enough to row and watch TV with, I have found it mentally refreshing to just focus on the rowing without background noise. It somewhat compares to running in that respect.I cannot compare it to its chief competitor, Concept 2. I can say that functionally it provides a very good workout to someone who has recently had to cut back on running because of ankle problems. Although I've run for years, I have to say the rower gives the quads quite a workout. I have also found my ankle is a wee bit sore after a session also, although it's not nearly as severe as when running.As advertised, it stands erect and does not take up much room when not in use. It has wheels that roll easily which allows you to store it in a place different from where you use it. As you row, the water makes a swish somewhat like gentle surf. It's audible but not distracting.Things fit together when it is assembled. It is sturdy. My only real quarrel is with assembly. The instructions do not identify all of the parts they refer to. At one step in the process it is necessary to sink some nuts into the footpad before attaching bolts. That is not stated in the instructions and if the nuts are not sunk, the bolts aren't long enough to reach them. That is when I entertained the idea of a one star rating and return to seller. But a helpful, friendly customer service rep quickly diagnosed my problem and things went smoothly afterwards. After assembly and considerable use of the product, its quality overwhelms my initial frustration and I don't hesitate to recommend it with five stars.
