I received my Row on January 18. As of this morning I have about 40 workouts invested and about 48000 meters. I have been consistently training on form and have seen my form improve from low 80% to high 90%. I used to think I understood form but I have been breaking bad habits the last week and half. I am very happy with my Row. The coaches are amazing, especially Alex and Ash. This is the real deal and worth every penny, especially if you have a Peloton Bike and only want to pay one subscription. Good review Travis, keep it up.

Separating out the specific parts and tools for each of the seven step assembly process steps was brilliant on the part of the manufacturer. For the price, I am impressed at how sturdy this kzfaq.infoUgkxvObaTzoHoHQLL4lHbJQmExHqsrZQm-f7 unit is and it does go together easily. Well, I was puzzled at first at Step 5 and maybe the instructions should mention that rail #62 needs to be tilted upwards a little to get the rail to fit into the main part #44. I like it that the rower can be stored vertically in a really small amount of space, but be forewarned that this rower is top heavy and for safety you'll need at least two bungee cords to keep the unit upright, attaching them to something; in my case to a third garage door. I have had this unit only a short time, and I will post an update once I've had it for a year. As for working your legs, I have to admit that I'm mainly rowing for upper body strength and I use other forms of exercise for leg strength (like walking fast, biking, or using a trampoline. But if you pull as far forward as possible, then you can give preference to your legs for the first 4 feet or so of travel. I also admit to not taking the two electronic connectors apart at Step 7. I simply inserted the two batteries while the other parts remained connected. By the way, there is plenty of resistance here, even in the lowest resistance settings. Kudos to Sunny Health & Fitness !

My form would have been so bad without form assistance. I have learned so much. I see other people on rowers and their form is awful. We don’t have to be perfect, but you can hurt your lower back rowing incorrectly. You were leaning too far back while rowing in your video. I love your videos and will continue to watch. I might have gotten a hydro, but I had a peloton bike. I didn’t want two monthly fees. Now I’m glad I went with the row.

Fyi Peloton dropped a few instructor led scenic rows in San Diego with Ash Pryor and Matt Wilpers. They're a nice departure from the standard format!

Yes I would love to see the comparison Peloton vs Hydro

Thanks for this video. Ended up ordering a Peloton Row just today after watching this. I think the fact I'm already in the ecosystem with the Bike+ kind of seals my fate. I'm already paying for the subscription that will just work with this is a big selling point - no 'extra' subscription required as it would be if I went anywhere else. I think the only what-if I'll ever have with the other ones are the feel of things like Ergatta with it's water design.

I’ve been waiting all week for this review! I’ve been torn between the Hydrow and the Peloton plus wondered how quickly Peloton might reduce the price to be more competitive. I love my Peloton bike and feel it’s the content, music and instructors that motivate me. I love Hydrow water classes but am afraid I’d be disappointed in the lack of music. Leaning towards the Row to save on the subscription.

Great review. I really wish Peloton could’ve found a way to keep it in the $2500 range. $3200 is hard to justify even if your already in their ecosystem. I have the Tread and Bike+ and am finding it hard to justify the Row

Great video! I ended up buying Peloton!

Man if they ever put those classes on the app, they would be a game changer if you already have a Concept2 rower. I feel like rowers have less between them in quality compared to bikes, especially the good ones and Concept2 rowers are everywhere.

I’d like to see a video comparing the Hydrow Rower and Peloton Row.

Would love to see a video comparing hydrow and peloton row

Definitely interested in seeing a video comparing Peloton/Hydrow/Ergatta. Wife and I love ALL of peloton's classes on app and looking to transition from a bike we use once a week to a row with more full body workout. Excited new subscriber and can't wait to see next video! Also is there any features for racing/competing on the scenic guided rows, similar to what it appears ergatta or hydrow have?

I love my row!!! No regrets!

Cut the price in half & drop the subscription requirements & I'd look at one .

Great video Travis. The rower looks wonderful and the features are excellent. The fact that it is so quiet is a big win for me. As always, great info!👍🏽 p.s. my user name is a bit different now, but it’s kdmud 😊

Nice video not sure where I am on a rower in general can’t wait for the comparison video.

Peloton rower is long term cheaper if you already subscribe to peloton. When they get their finances in order and decide to focus on growth again, price may become competitive for new subscribers.

The scenic row videos go forward?! Can you reverse it so it is realistic? Or does Peloton think rowing is like kayaking?

Great review!

New to rowing but not to peloton. Can you talk about how, or if, you can change the resistance on this?

That big screen seems very close to your hands at the catch. Are you not worried you’ll punch it?

Does rowing give you a good leg workout, or does it focus on the upper body?

The monitor placement is terrible IMO. It looks and sounds good. I am a C2 owner - so I am hyper-critical of other rowers.

What are the lengths of the classes? Are there a decent amount of 10/15/20 minute ones for new rowers?

Now the million $ question is are you going to keep the Peloton Row?😊

Why can't we hear the sound of the rower?
