5 out of 5 stars The no comparison Rower   May 12, 2010
Alfonso Moretti (New York, USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchased the R100 a few weeks ago after spending many hours researching various rowers and reading all available reviews of all the popular top of the line brands...excluding water rowers. After using it for the first time, I was nothing short of astonished at its performance. I have been working out for more years than I care to mention and have used practically all the equipment in Golds Gym as well as several other gyms. As far as rowers are concerned, nothing, and mean nothing, comes close to this machine. It is extremely well constructed, in fact it's built like the Rock of Gibralta. It's great looking, smooth as silk to use, very very quite (compared to other rowers), has an extemely accurate heart rate monitor (I have two different types and they stay with a heartbeat or so of one another),and was very easy to set up. The programs allow the workout to remain interesting and the adjustable resistance can be made as challenging as you wish. Yes, it'll cost you a few hundred bucks more than the popular gym brands, but belive me, it's worth every cent. If you are an avid exercise enthusiast, and plan to use the machine frequently, take my advise and give this machine a shot... it's worth the investment and you won't be sorry.. by the way, it has a great display. I really can't comment on how well it will "hold up" over time but I expect to use it for many years.

If forced to mention a "negative", I would say the only one I can think of is that the mat that came with the machine is to short to go under all 4 legs... a nit I know, but I did say "if I was forced"...

One more thing, in the interest of "full disclosure", I did come across a few negative reviews concerning the r100 relative to "noise", "inaccurate heart rate readings" etc. I'm at a loss to explain them unless the machine fell of the truck prior to being delivered..



3 out of 5 stars Good machine, poor value   February 25, 2010

I tested the Lifecore R100 in a local shop (where the price was much higher than Amazon's), and my impression was yes, this is a good machine- and why shouldn't it be? It's a clone of the Concept II, which is pretty much the standard in rowing machines. The R100 has a magnetic drag system (according to the salesman) but it still has the fan system, and it's just as loud as the Concept II. The biggest difference seems to be that the Lifecore costs $400 more than the Concept II.

I've had a Concept II for almost a decade, and it's still in perfect working order. Every rowing club I know of uses the Concept II. Why pay over 40% more for what is pretty much the same machine?



4 out of 5 stars Good & solid Rowing Machine   October 19, 2009
Timo
After three weeks of using Lifecore R100 I am very satisfied with the product. The quality and attention to details is very good and it is designed to heavy use. The delivery was faster than promised. Good job.


5 out of 5 stars Very high equality piece of equipment.   May 3, 2009
David Bailey (Beijing, China)
Very satisfied with the Lifecore R100 after using it for two weeks.

Extremely quiet and very easy to assemble.

Works perfectly with my Polar heart rate monitor (and matches the heart rate shown on my Polar watch).

I honestly cannot think of anything negative to say about this at all!



5 out of 5 stars Beautiful machine   October 12, 2008

I love this machine. I usually hate doing cariovascular workouts and I hate running and Ive found it to be a beautiful piece of equipment.It is relatively quiet and much quieter than the schwinn airdyne I used to use. It is very sturdily built, has a great seat and I absolutely love the foot spacing on it. I am a big guy (250lbs) and I find it very comfortable. For a guy who hates workouts I unexepctedly find myself jumping on it several times a day for 5-10 minute workouts. It is very user friendly and very easy to work with.It has had a slimming effect on my body and it would be great for a bodybuilder or weightlifter trying to cut up or improve cardio without resorting to higher impact exercises.You can explosively row this machine and do interval routines with ease. Its effect on my back, shoulders and waist has been great and noticeable. I have not used other rowers like the concept 2 so I cannot really compare. I have used an older model A concept 2 and didnt like it that much. However, it is not a fair comparison as Concept 2 has many more modern models on the market such as the model D and E. I have not done any amateur or professional rowing so I cannot say whether any rowing enthusiasts would find this machine useful to training for their sports. For any other fitness enthusiast, fighter, endurance/strength athlete, or couch potato I cannot recommend this machine highly enough.
