ProForm 750R; Rower with 5” Display, Built-In Tablet Holder and SpaceSaver Design

Seems to be a nice piece of equipment. The only gripe of have is about the set up. ProForm placed a big sticker on the read out that say the machine is locked until you log in to their iFit subscription. I found on another retailers website that if you simply hold the iFit button for about 30 seconds, it will go into manual mode and then all of the built in controls and settings work as they should.

Bought this to replace my Proform rower that I lost in a flood. This is a terrific rowing machine just like the last one I owned. I highly recommend it. I am in my 70's with a metabolic age of 56. I row 4 to 5 days per week using the IFIT app I pay $15 per month. IFIT paired with the rower automatically adjusts the tension as you follow the instrutor through the rowing session.

Purchased from walmart.com and it arrived in two days. I needed help to carry the box inside, but you can setup alone. It took me 1 hour to put together, you will need a wrench and screw driver. I started by doing a manuel row which you can do without having to sign up for ifit membership. I am also trying the 30 day free class pass, and it is a lot of fun. $15 a month after free trial. I keep it folded up as I live in a small apartment. It takes apx 30 seconds to unfold and pairs easily via Bluetooth with my tablet. Be careful to unplug it before folding it up, it could be very easy to break the power cord. I did purchase a gel cushion off Amazon because I found the seat to be uncomfortable after 10 minutes of rowing. Walmart by far has the best price online for this rower, even cheaper then the official website. I got it during X mas for $477....excellent deal!

I've purchased Proform before. I had purchased a treadmill about 8 years ago and it still works. I consider Proform a middle-of-the-road brand for fitness equipment which is what I was looking for. I originally wanted a Concept 2 rowing machine but the wait time and price was a bit of a turn-off. The rower comes almost entirely assembled. You basically just have to attach the seat and control panel/arm and you are set. The box it comes in is extremely large and heavy (I think they listed the shipping weight as 110 pounds). Once out of the box I was happy with the quality I saw. It looked sturdy and pretty nice overall. I've used the Proform 750r for 2 weeks now and can say the following. * The magnetic resistance is good for those who are not already muscular. If you already have good muscle tone built up you will want fan or water resistance. For someone like me, who has let themselves go during covid, it's perfect. * It is quiet. The seat will make more noise than the actual machine. * It is comfortable (of course this is subjective). The seat is cushioned enough, the handle has some nice padding, and the foot platforms work good. * The display panel could use some work. While it does cycle through the different stats and you can remove some before you work out, I'd really like it to display a set of stats constantly rather than cycle through them. Plus, it doesn't remember which ones you remove when you turn it off, so you have to remove them each time. It does have key stats such as strokes / 500m. * Putting it away isn't easy. You have to tilt it forward and then fold the other half into the underside of the front. My 5-foot tall wife doesn't like it. I don't mind it but it's not great. * I can get a good sweat with less than 10 minutes of rowing. I just did 4000m in about 13 minutes this evening. Overall, it should work for me for several years. Rowing is a technical exercise. Don't start gung-ho when you first get the machine. Watch some videos and work your way up focusing on your technique first and then your fitness. As others have noted, you don't have to activate iFit when you get the machine (despite all of the warnings and literature that comes with it). Plug it in and hold the iFit button for about 30 seconds and the display should activate. You only have to do that the first time.

Perfect mid-tier rower! Like others have said, the initial assembly is very easy and straightforward but the manual truly lacks a "how to use" section. It assumes all of your workouts will be iFit sessions and no manual workout programs. Aside from this, the machine is superb. Sure it's not a C2 but it also doesn't try to be. The compactability of the machine is it's best selling point. I'm able to fit it in my closet perfectly and able to close the door to hide it (very small closet btw). The iFit membership is a must if you want to use the machine to it's best capabilities plus I find it way more engaging than just looking at a simple stat display. The seat is probably the most comfortable rowing machine seat I've sat on with plenty of cushion. My only concern with the machine will be it's longevity with parts and such as they REALLY try to push for that 4 year warranty plan. Overall I would say this machine is worth if you are trying to find something mid-level that won't break the bank. This is NOT some paid advertisement for some machine discount crap I see in every other review. I fully paid for this machine after saving up (I wish I was offered some discount lol)

Great choice! Has plenty of resistance to work up to with the magnetic wheel and offers a total body cardio workout! It's easy to fold up and move around and fits in the corner of our room nicely when we're not using it. The display is simple and the app connects easily.

I love the rower! Easy to assemble and move to desired locations. It’s nice and smooth to the use and not too loud. The iFit coaching app is great! It really pushes you to do better every time.

I ordered same product from BestBuy twice and it was delayed and cancelled twice. I saw Walmart he $200 less and they delivered and set up exactly as stated on website. So happy!

We have a large family room downstairs, and I have a nice treadmill. I started watching reviews about rowers and got interested in the idea of purchasing one. One thing I found out right away is they are expensive, or they are junk. Many of the rowing machines were immediately eliminated by professional rowers by the build. Can't do a proper rowing motion on many of the budget machines so what is the point of purchasing a rower. I found some really nice ones. The Hydro brand, The Nautilus Brand. These are awesome machines. The problem is they are 2000 dollars plus another 300 plus per year for videos to use the monitor. I came across two that are reasonably priced with good reviews. The concept rower which is supposed to be a gym favorite and this model here. I currently have a smaller priced ifit membership (one where you pay less for using your tablet pc to sync with the rower.) I thus went with this specific model because it is a lower price and the ifit. As for the specific machine. Its not too bad. I'm probably the last person to ask about how this compares to being on the water as I spend little time there. What I like about this machine other than the price is the fact that I can use this without an Ifit membership. The display works fairly well without one. However, the print is small and therefore difficult to read while rowing. The speakers are very nice and loud if you want them to be. Controlling the display works very well. So being a beginner at these rowing machines I am happy with the display and being able to adjust the tension with the press of a button. This machine enables a proper rowing stroke whether tall or short and one of the main reasons that I purchased this model. The build is quite good. The weight is 100 pounds, so it feels like a nice piece of exercise equipment. If you want the 100 and some Ifit subscription that is where this rower is at its best. The fun videos teaching how to row and the scenic stuff is nice. But again, if you don't want Ifit this device works quite well. If you have a good smartwatch all of this stuff will be on there anyway. To conclude: The rower is reasonably priced, has a quality build, nice rowing feel, good display with easy controls, Assembly is as easy as it gets. Not the best machine but definitely the best value that I could find.

Power cord is to short and the jack is in a horrible place if you need to move it. It also does not move well if you nee to move it very far. Other than that it is fine.
