Piston Showing 5 of 5 Rowing Machines... Piston resistance uses hydraulic cylinders attached to dual arms. Piston models are the smallest and least expensive options - they provide a great intro to rowing and its benefits without making a lot of demands on your space or budget. They're compact, quiet, and the only rowing machines that can work each arm independently. The big drawbacks: they're not as smooth as the other types, their frames are often too small for taller users, and their rowing simulation is least like the real thing.
Step up to steel! A more substantial version of its cheaper twin-piston competitors, the 1205 has a 5-year warranty that blows away other machines in its price range. You can adjust the piston-to-handle connection to increase torque as desired.
Simply the best in standard dual-piston rowing. Elevated seat, higher weight capacity, and six simultaneous readouts including pulse. Made in Germany, not China.
Magnetic Showing 10 of 10 Rowing Machines... Magnetic resistance - as found in many exercise bikes and elliptical trainers - uses powerful electromagnets to provide a variable system of resistance. Like piston machines, magnetic rowing machines are virtually silent; they're also longer and smoother, which allows fuller, more fluid extension. The variable resistance settings are ideal for those seeking specific workouts; many magnetic rowers offer versatile monitors that give you custom-fit workout options. Serious rowers in training, however, will prefer air or water resistance, both of which vary according to stroke rate.
Minimalist chic: Scandinavian low-profile styling, totally silent rowing. Includes great features like hand-grip pulse measurement and dual-track seat glides for perfect ergonomics. Detailed monitor even tracks humidity!
The same rower/home gym combo as the Coach, with workout programs and big-time monitor upgrades: PC-interface training, integrated heart rate monitoring, push-button resistance control.
Identical to the R30, with pre-set workout programs and major monitor upgrades like push-button resistance control and automatic resistance adjustment according to your heart rate.
Rowing's finest machine. Combines style, form, and peerless function including 95 resistance increments and heart rate monitoring. Control your console functions (including resistance) right on your handlebar!
Air Showing 2 of 2 Rowing Machines... Air resistance uses a fan to create resistance - which means it responds to your pace, increasing resistance according to your stroke rate for a great simulation of real rowing. Air models are generally long; they provide more full extension and take up more space, although some fold for easy storage. The fan, while cooling for users, makes air rowers far and away the loudest option.
A Rowing Classic w/ an economic price! The Stamina ATS Air Rower has always been the most affordable replica of the original rowing standard, Concept 2. It is the only rower in its class with a rugged metal chain attached to the handle. Exposed red fan blades lend an extra splash of style!
Schwinn's world-renowned exercise bike technology in a rower. Unique folding rear legs raise the seat angle to emphasize your abs and hamstrings. You-versus-the-computer Regatta mode simulates a real race!
