Overview
A precision flywheel sets the resistance on this GMWD rower, and pulling harder raises the load. The frame is alloy steel and aluminum, the seat is ergonomic, and a battery-powered LCD monitor tracks the session.
Rail length and load rating that suit larger rowers are the reason to look at this machine, along with upright storage. The limitation is that air resistance is not adjustable by a dial the way a magnetic rower is, and the machine is long in use.
Who it's for
Home rowers who need extra rail length, a higher weight rating and a quiet flywheel will find the build suited to them. Buyers with limited floor space during workouts, or those who prefer fixed magnetic levels, should consider other formats.
Pros and cons
- Extended rail for taller users
- High user weight capacity
- Folds for vertical storage
- Bluetooth app sync
- Long when set up for rowing
- Resistance depends on pull effort
- Monitor needs batteries
Performance notes
Air resistance rises with pull force, so the load follows the rower's effort instead of a preset ceiling. The flywheel smooths the stroke and holds noise down, and the monitor records time, strokes and calories for the app to display.
