On this best rowers list, we’ve included all kinds of rowers that have a number of features. You’ll find magnetic, air, and water rowers on this list, as well as a few affordable options and rowers with touchscreens and battery-powered consoles.
Our top rower is the Hydrow. We’ve named it the best overall rower because provides a fully immersive rowing experience. It has a 375 lb weight limit, a tall 16” high rail, and it’s comfortable to use. It uses magnetic resistance so it’s quiet and the resistance and drag can be adjusted on the screen. It requires a subscription to access the trainer-led outdoor rowing classes on the 22” touch screen, and it’s great for users of all abilities.
Next, we have the NordicTrack RW900 Rower. It’s been titled our most versatile home rower because it accommodates training on and off the machine. The RW900 Rower is iFit enabled for access to thousands of trainer-led workouts filmed indoors and out. The 22” touch screen tilts and pivots to the side for taking classes like strength training and yoga. iFit comes free for the first month and provides a complete, versatile training experience that we feel really enhances the RW900.
The Concept 2 Air Rower scores the best air rower title on this list. It’s beloved by Crossfitters and rowers around the world because it’s lightweight, yet supports up to 500 lbs and it uses air resistance. It’s perfect for any sized user and the console is battery-powered but has a lot of capabilities. It’s also calibrated so consistently to track your watt output, that’s why it’s commonly used in competitions.
Our most comfortable air rower is the AssaultRower Elite. It’s rugged, yet surprisingly comfortable because of the seat and versatile handle. It also uses air resistance like the Concept 2 and doesn’t require being plugged in. The console is simple to navigate and gives you plenty of metrics to track. It has a 350 lb weight capacity and we feel that advanced and beginner rowers will enjoy the AssaultRower Elite.
The Ergatta stands out as our best water rower. It’s elegant with a wood frame, sits low to the ground, and feels the most realistic to rowing outside. It uses water resistance which provides a soothing sound when you row but isn’t adjustable like magnetic resistance. The Ergatta has really fun gamified content rather than trainer-led classes, too. This is perfect for those who are competitive.
Our best water rower runner-up is the CityRow GO Max. It has a similar design as the Ergatta. It supports up to 375 lbs and uses water in the tank as resistance against the flywheel. The content on the touch screen is perfect for beginners because it offers a lot of guidance in your positioning and form. The classes are filmed in a studio and are led by instructors.
The ProForm 750R Rower is our most affordable tech-enhanced rower. It folds up, uses quiet magnetic resistance, and lets you choose what type of content you want to consume while rowing. The console displays your metrics and comes with a device rack to hold your phone or tablet in place. It comes with iFit free for the first month so you can try it out on this rower as you view the classes from your device.
A late addition to this list is the Aviron. We just got it in and are so impressed with it that we’ve awarded it the best-gamified rower on our best rower list. You can play all kinds of video games while you’re rowing on the Aviron. There are racing games, shooter games, as well as scenic rows, and guided rowing content. You can even stream from preloaded apps like Netflix and Hulu. This is a fun and hearty hybrid rower that uses both air and magnetic resistance, paired with a 397 lb weight capacity.

I’m just now discovering the benefits of an indoor rower. When I first started to get back into shape, I picked up an inexpensive magnetic rower to see how I would like it. I’ve outgrown it quickly, however, and I’m now looking to move up to something that provides more resistance. This video was very helpful and I think I’m going to save for the Concept 2. I’ve heard good things about them, many of which you mentioned in the video. I don’t need a screen on my rower, because I use the Apple follow along rowing workouts. Thanks for all the insight on these machines!

Can you guys review the LIT rower

@_-_-_-6670 Год назад

Lovely ladies and rowers! I would always recommend C2 over the others for several reasons not mentioned. One is the fact it breaks into 2 parts, as mentioned by another commenter. Secondly, it's massively lighter and less expensive than the Hydrow. The parts are also readily available and it will always work fully, you won't be held to ransom paying subscriptions. In addition, you can connect the PM5 to various apps that run on tablets and phones, if that's your thing. I could go on...but there's no question I'd buy a C2 unless I was an *extremely* casual and wealthy user who would never need to move the item and had a place for it next to the power supply it requires, I *might* consider the Hydrow. As for the others...no thanks. Great video, interesting viewing...👍

@ThurstonHowell3rd Год назад

Concept 2 is nice if you can get past the noise. Decibel lvl is the equivalent of a lawn mower.

@fedguy9182 10 месяцев назад

⁠@@ThurstonHowell3rdNonsense. Noise while louder is not particularly jarring IMO. Most have music blaring anyway. If noise is that critical the water rowers are quieter than anything else based on tests with decibel meter

@jazzmandan7056 4 месяца назад

Hi guys.. great job on the vids! 😎.. After all of the ‘Google hammering’, I Had a look at your 2024 choices. Went front the Hydrow 0:03 to the Nordictrack, then the Proform and Aviron. There’s SO many products out there. I found the Hydrow nice but pricey. The Nordictrack seems like an attempt at Hydrow, which is fine, but I’ve seen elsewhere in other posts that there doesn’t seem to be much difference between level 1 and 26 resistance levels.. Bit of a deal breaker when you’re dropping this much coin on a machine like this. It seems they’ve focused more on the 22inch screen and Ifit content.. (whatever🙄).. Kinda got hung up between Proform and Aviron, notably the R10 and Impact. I love the Power series, but $$$.. I like the idea of a quiet operation, but not a deal breaker as we live in house noise wise and we usually have the music blasting, so..😂.. Also the folding option so we can wheel it away if we want. The hybrid models look really interesting just for the fact that it seems to give better resistance and a more realistic feel. I know there’s a bit of a price differential between the R10 and the Impact, but price aside; Your recommendations? Thanks in advance!

@TreadmillReviewGuru 4 месяца назад

Thanks for watching! Between the ProForm R10 and the Aviron, we'd definitely recommend the Aviron. The ProForm is fine, and the folding mechanism is great but we typically recommend the R10 rower for beginners because the resistance isn't very consistent. During the recovery, the belt with go a little bit "limp" and lose resistance, which is a little bit frustrating. But if you're just starting out, that's a great option. If you're experienced and want something that is going to be consistent, go with the Aviron. Let me know if you have any other questions, thanks!

@rw0037 Год назад

You name the assault air rower elite the most comfortable, but never exactly say why it’s better ergonomically than the others. Wider seat? More height? Better foot rests? More stable? What?

@TreadmillReviewGuru Год назад

Great questions! The AssaultRower Elite has the most comfortable seat (in our opinion) out of all of these rowers. It's taller so it's easier to get on and off of, especially for people who may have joint issues. The handle and footboards are also built and placed appropriately. It is very stable but I wouldn't say it's any more stable than the C2 or the Hydrow. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions, thanks!

@MDX-tf1cz 5 месяцев назад

The reviewers seemed struggle to explain the Waterrower Ergatta features. They seemed to downplay the "resistence" level. The resistence level is the best thing for the water rower or any rower, it's variable and dynamic. The user power level control the resistence level while rowing. The harder you drive, the harder the resistence. If it is too low, water rower has optional accessary to add to raise it. They also have the optional rail extension too. They should have mentioned it. The reviewers are correct about pull handle, smaller hands will have issue because it is not rounded. This is just me, the sound of magnetic is making me feel headache.

@monkeyb1820 Год назад

Assault is good. There is a company that makes pads made to go on top of the c2 seat. They both have a similarly good rowing feel. Since c2 is less expensive, my take is go with the c2. I've used the Assault at my gym. Good product, comfy seat, I like the C2 display better (partly due to more familiarity with it).

I have had some warranty issues with two of my exercise equipments that I purchased less than a year from receiving them. One company has technicians that they utilize to assess and repair. This was great and it was repaired promptly. The other company, expects the owner to disassemble the machine via instructional videos. This has not worked well at all! For me, this will be a critical factor in purchasing any future equipment. This is not usually mentioned in many reviews and I do understand that it may be difficult to obtain. However, it could be very beneficial to equipment owners who are not mechanically inclined. I will never again purchase equipment without this information.

The first contact and purchase went perfectly, but that was it. Starting with the white glove delivery, they called the day before to reschedule, I was so mad because it was a gift! So they opted for a 7am delivery! Delivery day, birthday, they call and say they are outside and if I don't come now they will have to reschedule, so I race outside and find 3 hung over fat guys in a moving truck, all irritated because they have to assemble this thing! White glove delivery??? What part of white glove is this? Anyway, first rip off. Second, tried for a time to set up accounts, nobody for over two weeks to help initiate this. And finally, 3 weeks after the start of using, my elderly mom while using it the strap inside the spool came off! Wow, good thing we git the warranty right???? NO again! No calls answered, almost a ghost company. Long story short, Ill just say the machine is still inoperable, not working and we have been completely ripped.
