This one won’t become a towel holder!
I purchased this product after learning that I have some arthritis in my knee, shifting my ability to fully flex in weight bearing postures. My research included a small amount of online information and a great deal of discussion with my son who is an exercise enthusiast and so I chose the hydraulic row & ride over the bands so that I could have a smoother experience through the joint. I’ve used it daily x 1 week and have already developed opinions -Arrival and Assembly – The box was light enough for me to manage alone, though a little awkward due to size. The product arrived with clear instructions and all tools needed for assembly were included. Small pieces were shipped on a card where they were divided to let you know which pieces were for Step 1, which were for Step 2, etc. It very easy to follow BUT you need 2 people to streamline the process. In total, it took about 40 minutes.Use – I go onto You Tube where Sunny Health and Fitness has videos to guide you through routines. To Date, I’ve completed a few of the routines for beginners without difficulty. Each workout is about 10 minutes and could be done in street clothes if you didn’t want to change. There is something about the cover on the seat that catches some of my workout wear and so I’m considering a cover, but it’s not a dealbreaker. The handles are comfortable to grip and there are several places to position your arms to shift the upper body workout. The foot pedals could be nicer – but I also paid under $200 for a piece of equipment that I’ll actually use so it’s probably a fair trade off.Space – For now, I have this in my living room facing my television. As I get more accustomed to the workouts, I could probably just open You Tube on my phone and do away with the video guidance. That would allow me more flexibility. I did not purchase the $50 floor pad. Instead, I used an old yoga mat that I’d kept when I upgraded. It’s not a heavy piece of equipment and, so far, I’m not concerned.The actual Workout – All in all, I’m very happy with the purchase. I was in the “but is it something I’ll actually use” family and I’m finding it easy, effective, and kind of fun. I can feel my muscles working and, when I need a different resistance level, can easily adjust the dial to shift. The workouts target multiple body parts (lower and upper) and the guidance enables me to target specific muscles. Once I’m used to it enough to move into the longer workouts, I have no doubt that I’ll be able to extend the use of the equipment to be even more worthwhile.

Wow, great machine and it’s being used!
Addendum: wonderful machine and well built, however it doesn’t fold up much. If you have limited space (I do) this could be an issue.Really need some indoor exercise and something that doesn’t require being on the ground or too low. This machine looked like it fit the bill.It came well packed with very good and easy to follow instructions (far better than youtube which showed product in a less assembled state than this came in). It took me about an hour and a half to put it together, tho that was with breaks, but no stress. And, it is very sturdy, no wobbling.Takes a bit to figure out how to use it properly and I was worn out after 2 minutes! Felt it all over. You can adjust your body positioning on the machine to use different muscles.After my third or fourth time on it, got worried about my knees, because they hurt. I didn’t want to give up, so changed body position and seat position, movements, (and I think tension) and now I can use it with no pain to knees at all. And my knees are definitely improving. That’s what I really needed.I can feel the workout throughout – from ribs to knees, shoulders, back, abdomen, and everything feels better. I leave it out and jump on it several times a day for minutes at a time. I’ve gotten up to 4! Doesn’t sound like much but I’m, very happy with it and how I feel afterwards.And I had a question about tension, was referred to customer service. But they sounded very helpful, so that’s a plus.

Easy and effective
I really like my Row and Ride. It was very easy to set up and adjust for my shortness. It is very quiet, you can ride and hear the tv or music no problem. This is a quality machine, well build and solid feeling. It feels a little strange at first stepping on but it is really simple to use. After a week or so I noticed a firmer back, arms, and torso. Recommend!

Gives you a full body workout and super easy to use

Easy to assemble with someone with you and the machine is sturdy and the quality is good.

アキレス腱を断裂し、半年が経過しようとしています。４か月目にギプスが外れ、リハビリが始まりましたがこの４か月で一挙に両足の筋力が衰え、未だに右足は片足のつま先立ちができません。何とか、歩行できるまでに回復はしていますが、これではゆっくり歩くしかできません。そこで自宅でもふくらはぎ（ヒラメ筋と他２つの筋肉）と足の指の筋力をアップさせるためにスクワットを始めようと思っていました。丁度そのころ、ユーチューブでアメリカの高齢者がこのマシンを使って筋力をアップさせている映像をみて、購入決定しました。現在、使い始めて１週間ですが、足への負担が少なく、筋力アップに貢献しているような気がします。また、途中経過を報告します。＊1年後の経過です。１６５センチ６５キロの６０歳代後半の男性です。現在はウェイトを１０キロ迄上げて使っています。アキレス腱断裂後は最初は６キロ程度から始めましたが。徐々に筋力が戻りつつあります。今は従来と同じような生活をすることができるようになっています。テレビを見ながら１週間に３回程度１００回を目安に使っています。結構使っていますが、耐久性の面でも問題はないですね。フローリングの上で使うためにマットを使っています。滑り止めにもなるし、傷防止にも役立つのでお勧めです。＊１年５か月経過後カウンターが壊れました。表示は出ますが、すぐにSTOPマークが出て、カウントが出来なくなります。おそらく内部にある振動センサーが不良になったものと想定しています。構造が簡単なだけにカウンターの故障は直しようがないので問題ですね。やはり、アメリカの製品はこのような付属部品までチェックしないようですね。でも、故障するとやる気がなくなります。現在、これだけの注文もできないので、スマートウォッチに入っているエクササイズのローイングモードでカウントするようにしています。何とか使えていますが、不便ですね！
