Stamina X AMRAP Air Resistance Exercise Rower, 300 lb. Weight Limit

I have been using this machine every other day for several weeks now. I was impressed with the quality right out of the box. I had it carefully assembled in about an hour and started rowing. I did buy an after market seat pad because the factory seat alone is pure torture. I'm pretty sure I could never wear this machine out. It is very quiet so I can row away and watch Netflix and lose weight. My New Years resolution is to lose weight and this has really helped. I have dropped 15 pounds so far and have several more to go. So far this year I have not consumed a single soda or candy bar. I hope to go all year with this status.

When I first put the machine together there was a slight knocking sound coming from the fan. When I removed the fan cover I discovered a small hex nut stuck to the magnet. I couldn’t find a location for the hex nut so I assume it was picked up by the magnet during assembly at the factory? After I removed the nut the machine worked flawlessly. I use a CONCEPT 2 at the gym as part of Crossfit wod’s on a regular basis. This rower not only equals the gym’s rower but is actually a little more taxing when set at the highest fan level-where most of our Crossfit wods are done at. I’ve gone no further than 5000 meters at a time so far but overall I’ve no complaints after the initial set up. Training for crossfit wods with this rower is excellent because of the increased load over the CONCEPT 2. At the easiest fan setting I notice no difference in 500 meter times compared to the CONCEPT 2.

Have been using this rower every day for 20 days. It was easy to put together and easy to use. I feel like it is well built and will hold up through many hours of use. When in use, it is fairly quiet. You can get a good workout in with this rower.

Awesome overall quality in comparison to other available models previously owned a 1399 and this one blows it out if the water . Warenty and great customer support as well slight recommend ation . I'd like to see a blue tooth capable monitor from u guys one day and maybe an app . Theirs a vr app i use wile rowing that accepts rowing data via Bluetooth and I'd really love to be able to use a stamina rower with it

I was looking for a rowing machine to purchase. All my experience with rowing machines was been with Concept2 machines. This is closest machine I could find that came close to matching the Concept2 at an affordable price. It has met all my expectations. The X AMRAP can be a little challenging to assemble at times. The only major difference I could find was the computer display. The Concept2 has a better computer, but I found the X AMRAP computer met my needs just fine. I am very happy with the X AMRAP Rowing Machine,

I had been eating a Concept 2 rower for a long time. This rower seems to be just as good. The PM5 monitor for the Concept 2 is probably the only thing that is better than the Stamina X. But for the $400 cost difference (on sale) I think it was a no brainer. I'm happy so far. Easy to assemble. (Read instructions before you start because you need to use some of the packing foam as a stand while assembling)

The mechanics of the rower are quite good. If you just want a rower that gets the job done then this is a good one. The shortcomings are in the fit/finish and in the electronics. The assembly took some finesse due to the screw and bolt holes not all being aligned correctly, but I was able to muscle it together. Regarding the electronics, I did a direct side by side to compare the calories the rower calculates versus what the Polar app calculates. I had my heart rate monitor paired to both of them simultaneously to ensure the results were comparable. The Rower said I burned almost double the calories than what the app said.

Similar to a Concept 2, although the computer/screen is not as versatile. Took about an hour to put together with only one sticking point. Operation so far (two weeks in) is fine. I've used Concept 2 rowers exclusively in CrossFit, and this is an excellent, slightly cheaper, home gym alternative.

I've had the rower about a month or so now. Assembly was easy and pretty straight forward. The machine seems well built, the only negative I have to say about it is, it has a slight vibration in the fan when using it. Nothing bad, and this may be normal for these types of rowers. I've never used any other rower before so I have nothing to compare it to. The other thing is more me learning how to use the machine than anything else, but I sometimes struggle to find the catch at the beginning of the stroke right away. So there is more slack than I think there should be, but I'm confident that this is more user error and improper form than anything else. I'm slowly getting the hang of it though. It gives a heck of a workout for me, and I look forward to using it for many years to come.

Was so excited to get this but when we started asssmbling it everything went down hill. It was almost like the parts were not made right. When attaching the two main peices together we had to basically fource it and make it work. We also could not get one of the foot attachments to line up with the existing holes.
