Comments about Stamina 1205 Precision Rower:
I bought a rowing machine very very similar to this several years ago and used it to keep my weight down. Unfortunately the feet got broken, but I found when I bought this machine that the parts could be interchangeable. I have bought the parts I needed and now have two machines, one in Toronto and one in Florida. I spend the winter in Florida and summer in Toronto.

Comments about Stamina 1205 Precision Rower:
I love this product. It is durable, rides smoothly and gives an good workout. It took me a minute to get the rythem, but it does exactly as described -- a full body workout and keeps your heart rate up. I'm a stay-at-home mom so it is important for me to be able to get as much as a workout i can in to what little time I have. This does that for me. It's a bit heavy for me to keep moving around to store it out of the way. It might be easier for stronger people to move it around, but that's the only issue I have with it. It's an excellent product.

Comments about Stamina 1205 Precision Rower:
I try to use the rower twice a day. Starting at 15 minutes each working up to 30 minutes 2 x daily. It is quiet and works smoothly. The only fault I can see is that it does not store easily. It doesn't fold and won't fit under a bed. Otherwise, I love it.

Comments about Stamina 1205 Precision Rower:
I got the rower because my doctor said I do not need knee replacement, but should work out on a rower, which I did at the health club, and that worked fine, so decided to order my own rower, but did not realize how low to the ground the seat is, so it takes a little time to get on and off the rower than just sitting down. Once on it it works very well.

Comments about Stamina 1205 Precision Rower:
It works great if you don't want to change the tension frequently.
The knobs supplied to adjust tension are difficult to tighten sufficiently to hold the setting. This is a problem if you have multiple using the machine and preferring different settings. A flat handle would work better.

Comments about Stamina 1205 Precision Rower:
I have been sedentary due to several surgeries and am slowly getting back to more physical activity. This rowing machine is low impact and easy to use. I used to enjoy rowing a boat when I was a girl and I pretend I am again a teenager, rowing my little brothers on a blue northern lake.

Comments about Stamina 1205 Precision Rower:
I am using the rowing machine in order to regain strength lost during a long period of recuperation from surgery. I have been sedentary for the past few years due to the health problems, I used to enjoy rowing as a girl, and wish to regain my once strong body. It is easy to use and I like to imagine that I am once again a teen age girl, rowing a boat on a beautiful lake.
It arrived promptly and my grand daughter assembled it for me with out any trouble.
