Our rowing machine reviews, listed on the left and below with our scores, are based on the experiences of users who have had the machine for at least one week. We also test the machines ourselves (see below) and keep a check on fitness forums, blogs and other review sites to keep up to date with reliability and durability issues.

If you're sick and tired of reading so-called 'review' sites that just reprint the manufacturer's specification, you're in the right place - we don't do that. We'll tell you what we really think :0)

You can also check prices against features with our comparison table here.

If you would like to send us a review of your rower please contact us on tell us which model you have and exactly what you think of it.

We're not paid to include any particular rowing machine, we just test what we can get our hands on and when enough people contact us about a specific model. We're always adding more models and update the reviews you see here as we get more information.

Please note our reviewers comments are their own views and may differ from your own personal likes and dislikes.

We keep a look out for special offers and discounts and to our knowledge provide you with the best deals available. When two retailers have models at the same price we list the one who has the best reputation for customer service, before and after the sale.

We do earn a small commission on sales but this does not influence the reviews we list  Our objective is to provide you with unbiased views and opinions so you can find the best rowing machine for your budget to meet your fitness goals.
