As a former owner of the “Other Connected Rower” I wanted to share why we moved to the Peloton Row. 1) the technology interface is leaps and bounds superior to the competition. The Bluetooth for both audio and heart rate are stable and reliable, easy to connect to multiple devices and never cut out in the middle of an intense workout. All the connectivity to apple health and Apple Watch are hands down the most superior in the industry ( sorry I can’t give any feedback about android but I imagine it is the same superior quality as apple. The display is amazing and the metrics are easy to see even under the hardest and exhausting workout. 2) the design has a few advantages over the competition. The straps and foot size adjustments are quick and easy to use my wife and I never strike to adjust to each others setting or get strapped in. The cup and phone holder on the bench rail are so practical and needed a small thing that was not overlooked and so necessary and convent. The monitor is sleek and modern and definitely has a More appealing design. The mechanics or the rower are nearly silent and the recognition of the handle being docked is smart and useful. Peloton really thought through the little things that makes it strong Out as the market leader and makes. You feel good about value for the cost as a premium product 3) working out with coaches that are on the same equipment and also the form assist functionality are have to have features to truly learn and feel successful in learning to row and getting stronger and more fit. 4) if you are already a peloton bike or tread user then it a massive cost savings to have a single family membership and have all your workouts in the same app. If your not a current Peloton user but are thinking g about bike or tread then the row is a great place to start and only Peloton offers other state of the art machines, the other Rower company is just a rower. 5) of your not sure about rowing let me tell you my wife was not and now she is a believer. It’s a full body exercise, it’s fun, it’s easy on the joints, and in as little as 15-20 minutes you can get a calorie and muscle burn that takes 45 Minutes to an hour on other types of exercise equipment. Give a try and give your self a few weeks to adapt to something that’s new and awkward at first and I promise you a few weeks in you will see the magnificent effective workout that now my wife and well as me are excited to jump on a go for a row. This was not a paid endorsement it’s just my honest opinion that I wanted to share after sharing with so many friends and family members that have asked me what I think. Hope you explore rowing and good luck in your health and fitness goals.

I’ve always been a fan of rowing for exercise. If you are, you will love this machine. Not only is it good looking, but I particularly love that it guides me on my form. I like being a part of the Peloton community and how easy it makes it to achieve your goals. The metrics and data that you receive are extremely helpful. I pre-ordered this machine and since then the content has grown. It’s great to row and feel as if you’re on the water or working out one on one with a Personal Trainer. It folds perfectly and takes up very little space in my small apartment. I can’t recommend it enough. It’s an investment for sure, but it pays off in many ways and if you’re dedicated and disciplined, you will definitely get your money back.

I bought the row after considering a less expensive competitor with great reviews. My main reason is that I already have a Peloton bike, and I could use the same membership for both. If you are a Peloton owner and like the way Peloton classes do things, you'll feel right at home with the row. The rower is very quiet and I really like the way sensors monitor your stroke. This works really well. If you've rowed before, you'll like this machine. If you haven't rowed, know that rowing is not like riding a bike. You don't just naturally know how to do it. It will take practice (watch YouTube videos before it arrives), and you'll be frustrated at first. But once you get good at rowing, you'll enjoy it. I enjoy having the option to switch between rower and bike to reduce boredom. One tip: see if you can find a used row first. There were none near me so I went with the new rower.
