ERG650W Water Rower

Great rower. Very solid aluminum frame. Ultimately, what sold me on this rower over the Waterrower brand was the nice aluminum frame over the wood. Much better price point with Xterra.

Pros: looks great, rows VERY smooth, solid frame, easy to put together, nice handle, great price point.

Cons: had it for a week now using it once a day and it’s very squeaky at the seat and the main console. Will get in touch with cust. service to see if WD40 is ok, foot holders are a bit uncomfortable but the straps are EXCELLENT compared to Concept2.

Overall excellent quality. Never had a water rower before and I’ll never go back now. Without the squeaking, this would be an almost perfect rower. I recommend it for sure.

In college I was on the rowing team, but life happened and I never kept up with it. I have been "asking Santa" for a rowing machine for years and finally he (my wife) got me one! I knew I wanted a rower with water resistance, and the rest came down to price and features. For the price, this is way more fully featured and well-built than I expected. There are way more pre-programmed workouts than I will probably use, but my go-to has been the race against the computer which is fun. The other cool thing is that the rower actually folds up if you need to make some space, I've only had to fold it a couple of times but it was easy. If you're looking for a rower, I would definitely recommend this one. I am not sure how it's not twice the price, but I'm not complaining!

i didn't even know they made rowers, but i'm glad i found this one!!! suuuuuuper cool water rower i can train with at home! very easy to set up and just hop on when i'm feeling like getting a quick session in! the water tank is great. i like that its angled as i love looking at it when i'm rowing and the resistance is no joke when you get it filled all the way up. just put it at a level thats right for you and you will definitely feel it. i dont really use any of the programs because i make my own and save them in the custom spots but that feature works great. everything feels solid and quality. now im thinking of getting one of their bikes too - loving the direction theyre taking with their newer models. xterra is crushing it!!!!

Ok, I bought this machine because I liked how it looked better than the others I researched. I ordered it as a gift for my husband. He loves this machine. He says it rides smooth, the seat is very comfy and he loves the race mode. I love the design and white frame. It just looks so nice in his office. Nice clean lines. We're both happy.

I have been wanting a water rower for a while. Most of them are really expensive. I wanted a quality machine that seems reliable. I row at least 3X per week. I picked this one over the other because I liked what it said about the tilted tank and the extra programs. Glad I went for the extra funds (financed it at 0%). So far, I've had this machine a month and I'm so happy with my purchase. I love rowing on the water - but can't get there during the week. This machine with swooshing water helps bring me back. I like the programs -- it challenges me and adds variety.
