NovaRow 950 Dual Resistance Rowing Machine

I absolutely love this rower. It’s well built and looks amazing, plus it works great and is super smooth. Comes fully assembled, all you have to do is unpack it and fill the tank with water. Having both the water and magnetic resistance give you a lot of flexibility in adjusting your workout, comfortable seat, handle, and foot rest. The instructions aren’t written in the best English but it is pretty easy to interpret what they are trying to say. if you are looking for a nice rower that performs well and can easily be stored in the corner or in a closet this is a great deal for the money!

I've used the MERACH Rower for about a month when MERACH invited me to review it.

The package arrived 8 days after I ordered it. Despite slight damage to the edges, MERACH assured me of a full refund for any equipment issues. However, upon unpacking, I found the equipment in perfect condition. Assembly was quick; most components were pre-assembled. With their YouTube video, setup took only 15 minutes.

I really like this rowing machine; it has a solid wood feel, excellent tactile sensation, and soothing rowing sound. The folding design is a great feature for me. The drawer-style fold is convenient; my wife can easily use it too.

The MERACH rower also offers electromagnetic resistance, with 1-16 levels of resistance. However, it only serves as auxiliary resistance. When I set it to level 16, I can clearly feel the magnetic resistance kicking in. It increases the resistance threshold, whereas the resistance during the first half of rowing with pure water is relatively low.

After trying out the MERACH app, I'm impressed by the data recording and virtual reality modes. However, the MERACH app still has a long way to go. Nonetheless, I don't have to pay any subscription fees, which reduces my exercise costs.

I've used a Water rower at a friend's house, and it's excellent. But when I saw the MERACH rower for $699 with a 30-day home trial, I wanted to compare them. After using it, the MERACH Rower really left a deep impression on me while also saving me money.

I'm uncertain about its durability under intense rowing, but it seems sturdy so far. I recommend it.

MERACH swiftly handled my order within a day, and the delivery process took approximately five days. Upon receiving the package, I was pleased to find that the packaging remained intact. After carefully unpacking and inspecting the contents, I encountered no issues with the product.

During my usage, I encountered some water spillage while rowing. It later dawned on me that this was due to overfilling the water tank beyond the designated level and not securely sealing the tank lid. Promptly, I reached out to their customer service, receiving a response within a day.

The tactile sensation of the solid hardwood surpassed my expectations, aligning perfectly with my preferences. Considering the features provided, the pricing is notably fair. I am inclined to recommend it. The reason I can only give it four stars is because there is no phone customer service. Email inquiries can be inefficient, especially for complex issues. However, they assured me that they plan to add this service in the future.

I discovered MERACH's rowing machine through a Facebook advertisement. Initially, I had been contemplating purchasing a wooden rowing machine and had intended to buy the WaterRower S4. However, the absence of a folding feature in their rowing machines made me hesitant.

Subsequently, when I encountered an advertisement for the MERACH Rower. Intrigued, I proceeded to place an order for one, and I was thoroughly impressed by the simplicity of its folding mechanism - just open the latch, extend the rail, and securely lock it in place.

This rowing machine perfectly complements my home decor. After using it for 30 days without encountering any issues, I decided to keep it. Moreover, MERACH also generously gifted me a 9D mini massager. Overall, it was a good shopping experience.

As someone new to using rowing machines, I didn't have much knowledge about them. It was only after learning that rowing machines offer low-impact aerobic exercise that I decided to purchase one. However, the prices and features of models exceeding $1000 or $2000 were beyond my budget. After exploring various brands, I was impressed by both the price and features of MERACH's Rower. Upon trying it, I found the quality to be excellent, meeting my expectations. The MERACH app proved to be user-friendly and didn't require any additional subscription fees. While it offered many features, I noticed some shortcomings in content, such as limited outdoor rowing scenarios. Initially, there were discrepancies in data collection between the app and my fitness tracker. However, after reaching out to customer service, they promptly updated the app to resolve the issue.
