Review: The Best Piece of Exercise Equipment We Bought - We were skeptical about this piece of equipment. But after reading some reviews, we decided to take the plunge. So glad we did. We are more than pleased with this piece of equipment. Especially since as former marathoners and now old-timers, this machine really helps use re-gain the mobility and flexibility we lost over the years. We love that we can both use the machine without changing any attributes, since it's water resistance based. What we also love is the aesthetics -- the natural wood really lends to a focus furniture piece rather than a typical exercise machine. Hubby is a double hip replacement subject so this machine really has done wonders for his mobility. He's not walking around like a zombie and has been touting it's virtues. Granted, he has'nt been able to go more than 5 min. on the machine yet, but so far it's been the best for aerobic exercise. The assembly was a bit of a challenge. More so since hubby is more illustration driven than written instruction driven. But the two of us managed to construct an awesome piece of equipment with the help of a rubber mallet (we had issues with the placement of the foot rest.) The S4 monitor that comes with the unit does a decent job of tracking your stats. But if you are looking for a challenge, you probably need to subscribe to a service. Granted, I loved the stats that the waterpower provides, but we'll probably need to subscribe to a service to get the most out of the machine. If you're looking for a functional, yet aesthetic rower/exercise machine, the Waterrower in my opinion is the best option out there.
Review: Outstanding rowing machine - Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have very little time to exercise. I wanted an exercise machine that would exercise more of my muscles (not just my legs). I also wanted a machine that would be easy on my knees. Based on my 3 months’ experience of using it, I made an excellent choice. This machine is quiet, solidly built in Rhode Island, and very handsome. I enjoy using it. It makes a pleasant watery sound when I row. I bought and installed the optional legs, which elevate it off of the ground, and I am glad I did.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice machine but some glitches
*by M***K on June 22, 2023*

The bolts at the ends of the rails are in pairs but do not easily align, patience is needed and I suggest you do not thread the bolts into the nuts very far to allow as much play as possible. The S4 Monitor gave me fits. It gave instructions that seemed simple but while I could set the duration or interval, once I started rowing nothing was recorded, all stayed at flashing zeroes. There were two suggestions in the manual that I tried with no success. I went to the manufacturer site which added a third suggestion which was a lead might be loose in the wiring harness, that was the problem. I had to get at it and took apart the clutch and pully assembly, this came preassembled, fully seated the lead and put everything back together. It worked great after assembly.
