If you plan to crank out daily HIIT workouts then this machine will not hold up well. If you think you’re going to find immersive, interactive programming on this machine, you better be joking (all sunny health and fitness bike my Euphoria fans know the reference, although I made it G-rated). The SF-RW5801 doesn’t have anything close to a touchscreen and instead features a small LCD monitor that displays a few metrics.
With a little midcentury-modern flair, it’s good-looking enough to keep in your living room. When you’re finished using the rowing machine, you can fold it in half. This design makes it easy to store against a wall, but you can also tilt it onto its transport wheels and roll it into another room. We love that the rowing machine comes with a 30-day risk-free home trial and worry-free warranty.
I do like the steel seat rail, because this component will likely stand the test of time well. It is also evident that this piece is high-quality, because I did not experience any shaking while in use. Ever used a Peloton Bike and left a workout with your butt super sore?
