As a senior citizen, I was looking for a low-impact way to stay active. My doctor recommended rowing, and after some research, I landed on the Echelon Row-S. It's perfect! The adjustable resistance lets me take things at my own pace, and the comfortable seat makes it easy on my back. Plus, the variety of instructor-led classes keeps me motivated and engaged.

I really like the rowing machine. I bought it because my gym was closed and I needed to be able to work out. I had been a long time lifecycle rider but wanted something that would work more of my body. The rower, because it uses something like 80-85% of the muscles seemed like a great choice. The workout is hard, much harder than what I was doing before so I think the benefits for me are greater. I probably will not resume going to the gym after this shelter in place thing is over. I supplemented the rower with a TRX setup and I think that will meet my needs going forward. As an additional endorsement, I plan to by another rower for our summer place. I really like the convenience and the completeness of the workouts. My wife initially thought I was crazy (she was an elliptical user) but she started using the rower and is now a convert. As to improvements, I think the app could use some tweaks and has been improved over the past couple of weeks. It works fine, but always up for more improvements.

The Rower has been well worth the money. I have lost over 25 lbs since it was delivered in June. It has been used alot by my wife and I and I have been noticing that the seat does not slide as smoothly on the rail as it had. It seems to be durable piece of equipment and the classes and instructors are great..

Nice rower, even compared to some of the more expensive options out there! I wish the 500M split times would be easier to get to and compare similarly to others (hydrow and C2 show me a minute faster on splits for the same output). Some of the scenic rows are okay, but several that I've seen aren't all that fun to use. Overall, worth the investment though.

As part of my home gym buildout I bought the Echelon 5S bike right before Covid and have never looked back. I did spend a fair amount of time determining which bike to buy, and part of the decision was other related pieces of equipment available under a single subscription. While I used to row as part of my former OTF workout, I was leery of 20+ minute rowing workouts. Well, I must say the rower is now an integral part of my routine. There are great instructors, an array of on-demand classes and some boot camps that incorporate off rower exercise. I highly recommend this if you are serious about your home workouts. As an added bonus, many of the same instructors from the bike are here as well!

I absolutely love this machine and the whole body workout it delivers. It is my equipment of choice. I have hardly used my spin bike since my rower arrived. In just a few short months I have shed three inches from my waistline and see other great changes in my thighs and arms. Highly recommend this rower.

So far the Echelon Row has been a great addition to my routines. I get a great workout consistently. Early on I encountered very frustrating inconsistent connection via Bluetooth with my phone, but I have not had similar issues with the android tablet. Ask me again in a year after I have used it 365 times if it holds up, but so this is a good piece of equipment.

The construction and feel of this rower is top notch. You can tell it's a heavy duty, gym grade rowing machine. In fact, it might be built better than some of the rowers I've seen at some of my local gyms. It does fold up easily, and wasn't difficult to assemble. The resistance works great, and I am completely drenched in sweat after each workout. It is also whisper quiet if you do not count the sounds coming out of me while I'm doing a workout. There are a few things that could be improved. I feel like the ac adapter is very cheap. It seems like something that would go with a childs toy instead of a professional rower. I'd rather this have a power supply built in and just come with a long 3 prong cord. I also wish that this was designed with a built in screen. I'm using the ipad air and it just seems too small. There are some photos out there of a prototype that did have a built in screen. I'm sure this was scrapped for cost reasons, but the ipad is pretty small when you are rowing in and out. The last thing is the app. It's okay. It doesn't feel of the caliber that the rower is. You can add equipment, but you can't remove. That's one of the most annoying parts. So I have 2 rowers and a bike and I can't remove the two I don't need. I did hear that they are working on fixing that. All in in, I give this 4/5 for value, quality, and overall experience.

Love, Love, Love. This rower is so smooth, the controls are right on the bar, no stretching / bending to adjust the tension. Love the foot rests, nice wide velcro for each adjustment. Most of all. Love all the classes..I've been rowing for years due to running injuries...and part of my posture was wrong! thank you for the technique class and the scenic rides. Sad that Covid hit but happy to have my Echelon Rower!!!

Fantastic machine %26 have enjoyed training with echelon, well worth the money!
