“exceptional build quality - a class above any of its...”

written by andregouws on 20/01/2008

Good Points
superb build quality (comparable to concept II)
really reliable
looks great (i.e. doesn't look cheap like many of its competitors)
smooth action on pull and seat
seat padded for extra comfort
seat wider than other rowers I've used (useful for fuller figures! )
really good functionality on display unit
intergrated heart rate monitor chest strap receiver
fold-able for space saving
3year parts & labour warrantee, lifetime frame warrantee

Bad Points
no variable resistance
assembly wasn't exactly straight forward (but not terrible)
display could use time per 500m split


General Comments
exceptional build quality - a class above any of its competitors ... really, if (like me) you're not going to buy a concept 2 or water rower because £1000 is too expensive this is the only other option (unless you want something really cheap that will only last a year).

I tried the Johnson 7000 (£750) and Tunturi 7 series (~£600). Neither of these compare with the feel or look of the CS2 - I can't comment on their reliability of course.

This is one of the few machines on the market (perhaps the only one for less than £750?) that comes with a commercial guarantee (light use) - if they are willing to back their product for use in gyms it must be good - that was my logic - and it's true.

JUST WISH IT HAD A VARIABLE RESISTANCE SETTING!
