  • Worth the money so far
Style: Solid - Wood
I got this rower a few days ago. Here is my review so far. Assembly was fairly easy. No problems there. I am 5’9” and the range is perfect. My shoe size is 9.5 and my feet fit perfectly in the foot pedals. I used a little funnel to add distilled water to the tank. It took around 3 gallons to fill to the max line. I have found the workouts to be great. Since I am not a rower I have to take breaks but even after a few short days (and one rest day) I can tell I am getting stronger. The rowing works up a sweat. You cannot manually change the levels so I just adjust my effort. The quality is better than I expected and it looks good in my apt. When storing, the wood looks nice next to my red brick walls. Feels expensive and I love that aesthetic. It folds up nicely. I wish the wheels were a little better for rolling around but maybe I am not doing it right. As of now I would recommend if you are looking for an inexpensive rower and a beginner. I’ll try to remember to make a review after a few months. ... show more

  • Great rower.
Style: Solid - Wood
This is ana amazing rower, and the price is great for the quality of product you're getting. Very easy to operate, even my wife and older daughter can open and put away with ease. Stores great, doesn't take up too much space. Honestly I was kinda worried about the quality, I'm a bigger guy and weigh 280, but this holds up really well, very smooth when operating. Folds easily! This is definitely worth buying! ... show more

  • Better than expected
Style: Solid - Wood
This is a great tower for the price. It was easy to set up, folds nicely, is smooth, and the water sound is enjoyable. It’s higher quality than expected was also clear how to add resistance by adding water to the reservoir

  • Great design, poor quality control, lousy company.
Style: Solid - Wood
I love how this full-size rowing machine folds easy to stow in my bedroom, and unfolds almost as well for use. It has all the features I wanted (solid foot pedals, room to reach forward to complete stroke, adjustable resistance and self-adjusting resistance with speed). It was not too expensive, and not too hard to put together. The water rushing sound is very relaxing, and the quality of exercise unbeatable. That said, this machine arrived with four ugly holes drilled into the wood, and having read in other reviews holes needed to be re-drilled, I went crazy looking for screws and fittings to make things work. Finally I realized that there were good holes in the right place, and just covered over the unsightly mess with some contac paper. If I had not had previous experience with Merach, I would have returned the machine and sought a replacement. But, having purchased a prior, more expensive machine that did not do what they claimed (fold), I knew that there customer service bends over backwards to not accommodate customers, so I kept the machine I had. I honestly wish this machine was the one I picked first, because it does everything I need in a tiny space. I searched a long time to find something that works well at home without taking up too much space, and this is the best choice for me. ... show more

  • Easy setup and works great

Easy setup and gives a full body workout. My teenagers and I use it regularly.. we love it. I wish there is a easy way to replace the water.

  • Space saving, comfortable and very easy to put together.
Style: Solid - Wood
My rower was delivered with care. The machine was easy to put together, as I did it all myself! It's high quality as far as I can tell. The seat is very thick and comfortable to sit on. It folds up and doesn't take the space of a dining chair! I love the sound of the water as I'm rowing, it's easy to get lost in it so I put myself on a timer since I'm a beginner. It's easy for me to move around as I've got health issues so that's a huge plus. As for resistance, I can't speak on that yet, as I only filled it to the minimal amount of water. until I get stronger. I've wanted one of these since the show House of Cards aired and now I have one. I do not see this becoming a clothes rack like other machines do. It definitely puts me in my happy placed. The price is reasonable too, especially being a water rower. Be sure to check out the Merach app, as I use it to time my rows. ... show more

  • Good value for moderate home use
Style: Solid - Wood
I wanted to wait a few weeks and get some time on the rower before submitting the review. Its been about 2 weeks now and I have to say I'm very impressed. The assembly was very straightforward, its about 90% assembled, you just have to attach the long rails and install the seat and arm for the console. Quality is good for this price, its solid wood, not composite which is nice. I was concerned after reading other reviews where people had issues, but my experience was trouble free. I did only fill the water tank to the half way mark so that I could get used to the rowing motion since I'm a total beginner and it did feel very light at first, after about a week I added another gallon or so and it feels just right now. I was cautious because I think removing water if overfilled would not be an easy task. Its fun to use, and after watching lots of beginner videos on rowing technique I am confident that I am doing it correctly and am slowing building my time and speed. I think this is going to be a great addition to my home gym this winter! I was looking for something at a reasonable price for moderate use at home that was good enough quality to last. I think this rower will fit that bill nicely! ... show more

  • Good product, but not standard
Style: Solid - Wood
Solid build but two big notes for real rowers: (1) this is higher resistance than my WaterRower by Nohrd. Not bad, just noteworthy. (2) The screen does not include basic useful info like mm:ss / 500m, distance in m, spm. You can get these if you use the app on your phone, but i could not believe they arent just on the basic device. (3) the foot straps are velcro. Functional for sure, but you feel like a kindergartener. (4) I find that you cant come all the way in on the recovery, sometimes find myself catching. ... show more
