A runner with millions of meters on their RowErg and SkiErg calls the RowErg their best fitness purchase; it splits into two parts thousands of times without wear and suits running cross-training.
“The C2 RowErg is the single best piece of fitness equipment I have ever purchased. My SkiErg is right up there with it.”
Has owned their RowErg for a few years; a new noise at the catch turned out to be the return mechanism cover pushed out of place, easily fixed.
Has had a Model D for almost 15 years, kept in a shed, garage and now fully outdoors in the UK under a rain cover; with chain servicing it keeps going and they use it more than ever.
Hates cardio but is okay with their RowErg, using it to warm up before lifting and on rest days as a low-impact workout.
Says the RowErg is quieter than a vacuum or TV but not quiet, so they'd avoid very early or late sessions in an apartment.
A runner who finds the RowErg the only thing that comes close to running, and would rather row than use their treadmill in bad weather.
Bought an ex-gym Model E (tall-leg RowErg) for £500 with plenty of meters; it only needed a cheap new bungee cord to be as good as new.
