Wood as a material was chosen for the design of the WaterRower because it provides a smooth and quiet exercise experience by absorbing sound and vibrations. The WaterRower is much quieter than air rowers and produces a meditative sound as you row. The wood of the WaterRower has been hand-finished with three coats of Danish oil, adding warmth, deep luster and an overall aesthetic appeal. While there are other water rowers on the market, the WaterRower Rowing Machine is the original—and it has revolutionized the home rowing machine experience.

• Made from ethically sourced cherry wood which absorbs sounds and vibrations.
• The light color of the cherry wood will darken over time, until it reaches a rich, reddish hue.
• The patented Waterflywheel provides a real-world rowing experience.
• It is recommended that you use Municipal tap water to fill the Waterflywheel’s tank. You can keep the water clean by adding one of the included purification tablets every six months. 
• Can be stored upright when not in use (the water will not leak and does not need to be removed from the tank).
• Exercises 84% of your muscle mass evenly and prevents injury.
• The included S4 Monitor displays time, distance, speed/intensity, stroke rate and heart rate (with an optional sensor).
• Maximum weight capacity: 700 lbs.
• Measures 20h x 82.25w x 22.25"d. Seat measures 8" and when mounted on the rails is 12" from the floor to the top of the seat.
