What a great machine!
I LOVE my Waterrower! I've had it for over a year, and can honestly say it is the ONLY piece of exercise equipment I have ever used/owned that I actually enjoy using. You can use it for a relaxing workout, almost meditatively (the swish-swish of the water is wonderful), or for vigorous exercise. My son, who rowed in an 8-boat in college, was skeptical, but when he comes home now he uses it regularly. The heartrate monitor is reliable. I've had no maintenance issues at all. Not to mention, this machine looks like a work of art in my home...it's beautiful! Definitely worth the money!

I found the workout it provides to be deceptive at first--until I stood up after using it the first several times, I didn't realize just how intense the workout had been!

The footrest is rock solid and easily adjustable for foot size; the frame is long enough to accommodate very tall rowers (I've had friends up to 6' 4" use it without banging into the stops); the components are rugged and last a long time (at least 10 years so far); and the seat i
