Spartan Sports Full Motion Rower- New! Review
Pros
Cons
Best Uses
"With more American corporations (can't include names under agreement haha) leaning towards the trend of cheap labor and production costs comes the usual decrease in quality. So why'd I buy it? Because I'm cheap! But seriously.
This is yet another Chinese made master piece that lowers all of the bars when it comes to cardio engineering. So here's the truth. Some of the plastic parts are weak in structure and come cracked. The adjustable straps are located too high on the foot braces. Individuals with smaller feet tend to have them slip out of the foot holds. The electronic counter is nothing more than a magnetic sensor that is located on the top of the runner. When the seat glides over the sensor, the stroke number is shown. The problem with this is that the low grade electronics also read the "seat return" as a stroke count. So sorry folks! You'll have to divide the count by two if you really have an interest in how many actual rows you are doing. The wheel runners are not completely smooth. There tends to be weld slag left behind that was painted (probably "lead based" Yeehaaa!!) over it instead of ground off. This leads to the seat gliding over a less than smooth surface while eating away at it's plastic wheels. Pros you ask? It does offer an adjustable mono-shock full range of motion. It's not that bulky too. Other that that. It serves it's purpose.... Embarrassing China and it's American counterparts yet again."
