Hydrow Reviews

Have not been able to do a live class yet. Need to figure it out. Everything else is great!

This is the first time I’ve actually enjoyed rowing of any type! Thanks!

Outstanding machine. Great instructors and a great full body workout!

Only 3 days in but I feel like I am getting gray instruction and the work out I am looking for.

It is very helpful to build up muscles and for a fun challenge

Lots of fun!!!!!!

I’m not an athlete or a competitor, and I’ve never rowed. Further, I’m in my late 60s, and really out of shape. But the Hydrow really appealed to me, so I bought it without trying one in person, hoping I was not about to make a huge mistake. I’m only in my first week, but I love it! There are tutorials, and beginner workouts that are not so hard you get frustrated, but hard enough to know you’re getting the benefit, with excellent tips on technique and form that have already helped me. I love that the rows are on the water, and I think this helps really just get in “the zone” so that the workouts will be both effective AND enjoyable.

Loved the smooth transition and the help from the help desk. Excellent.

The Hydrow company promised my Hydrow in 3-5 weeks. I received it within that time. It would have been nice to have had some youtube videos pushed out about a week in advance to explain any incidentals we might need – like a rubber mat for beneath it. Also, It would have been nice to have a little more explanation about how the membership works. We figured out by accident that you can have multiple users included in the $38 per month subscription. One thing that would be nice is a pause button for the pre-recorded classes. I have stopped a class to modify the ratio of the music to the instructor and have had to restart the whole class. I love that I can see how I am progressing – how close I am to the rewards – like a hydroflask. The fact that I can see a leader board on the side does push me to work harder. For someone who hates to exercise, I really love this product. I just wish some things were a little better explained. Overall, this is the best piece of gym equipment I have ever owned.

The machine is smooth and constant resistance levels. The online library with 3-4 new videos added everyday gives you tons If daily rowing options. Having the instructor right there in front of you on the monitor gives you the ability to constantly see good form to copy and motivation to keep up the pace.

I am very happy with the Hydrow. It was a Birthday gift for my wife and I. The screen and its interaction with the rower makes all the difference. You are immersed in the video and the experience. I feel the same as with my TACX indoor bike trainer that I’ve been using for years. With the inclusion of rowing, I feel that I have a much better overall benefit than just cycling. More amazing is that my 79 year old mother came over for dinner tonight and tried out the Hydrow and she loved it. She has an artificial knee too. She didn’t row very far, but she looked 20 years younger when she was rowing. We took a picture and e-mailed it to family. Nice.

Really enjoying our new Hydrow! Great videos on how to learn to row and work on your fitness. Time flies by while you work out. The only downside was the heaviness of the package (as delivery personnel was not allowed to bring indoors), but it speaks to the sturdiness of the machine. Overall very happy with our purchase.

I love our Hydrow. I’ve used it consistently since we got it set up. The setup was super easy, by the way. The videos are high quality, and I enjoy my workouts a lot. Sticking with a workout regimen was difficult before we got this, but now I look forward to it. I can’t run anymore, but with the Hydrow and the exercise bike we got I can remain very active. I highly recommend the Hydrow. It really does make workout sessions enjoyable.

The entire family is loving our new Hydrow!!

LOVE THIS MACHINE! My husband was in crew in college (I.e. high expectations) and I’m a runner and beginning rower. Hydrow provides a smooth rowing experience and excellent total body workout. Very quiet compared to other rowers – can have normal volume conversations while using it. (I can use it while the kids are asleep!) The streaming classes are appropriate for both experienced and beginner rowers, and has mat workout options (Pilates, yoga, strength, mobility). I also use the Hydrow as part of my high intensity interval training. Our daughter is using it too. We’ve owned a treadmill, elliptical, bike, and Pilates machine. This is the best piece of gym equipment we’ve ever had!

A great investment in our health. First piece of exercise equipment that really has engaged me. 200+ rows and half a million meters in and going strong! Great instructors and confident it will only get better!

Love love my Hydrow. Beats any commercial matchine I have used. Was nervous about spending the money but have absolutely no regrets.

The trainers in the videos keep you entertained, very informative and really keep you focused on your technique which is great for us newbies. My fiancé and i have never enjoyed working out so much!

Love my rower. It was delivered and set up but the monitor wasn’t working. Customer support was amazing, we tried a reset which did not work but they promptly sent a new monitor just a few days later and paid shipping to return the old one. Even with that minor setback the rep was very nice and they were so prompt to get me rowing a few days later. I love all the rows I’ve done thus far, it makes exercise fun for me. I am a fan.

Excellent product. It’s there to support you and the sky is the limit to where this machine can take your overall health and fitness. Complete body work out. Love it.
