Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The Echelon Row Series is the fourth entry in this guide: a foldable magnetic rower listed at £599.00, rated 4.3 out of 5 from 245 ratings and sitting 244th in Rowing Machines. Its own listing carries two descriptions that do not match — the title advertises a 22" rotating HD screen and a built-in soundbar, while the specification field further down the same page gives the display as LCD and says nothing about screen size.

The smaller numbers are just as loose. The bullets promise 32 distinct resistance levels controlled via the handlebars, yet the specification field files the same idea under "Tension Supported: 32 EU". The title calls the resistance Bluetooth; the spec field calls it Magnetic. And the star breakdown — 6, 4, 5, 18 and 67 votes — adds up to 100 against the 245 ratings shown above it. Every figure on this page is taken from the Amazon listing itself, not from any testing we have carried out.

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

“I live in a rural town so going to a gym isn't really an option for me. I got this rowing machine mainly because it looked cool and I've has good experiences with Echelon products.This machine is easy to assemble, but definitely look at the instructions first so you assemble everything in the correct order.The workout is fantastic, I did not get the machine with the screen (personally I don't like looking at screens when I workout) so I have to count the beeps to figure out which level of resistance I'm on, I typically use level 12 through 15. I use this machine about 30 mins 4 times a week and the results have been great, I've noticed muscle growth pretty much everywhere and I've definitely burned some fat in areas that have been difficult for me to target in the past, such as lower belly fat.The only thing I don't like about this machine is there is an echelon logo that flashs blue when the machine is in use, and sometimes it's a bit annoying. Other than that this is a great machine!”

“Since I haven't tried cheaper models (I paid $699), it's hard to say if the build quality would be much different spending $200-$300 less, but it feels substantial and well-designed.I'm rowing 30 minutes 6x a week. Around three weeks in, the rower is performing well. The tension adjustment buttons were working sporadically, until I pushed in the battery in the handle more firmly, and it's been fine since. I like the folding design, it's not hard to move the rower around the room.Everything was packaged securely, no blemished or damaged components. Assembly wasn't too difficult, a longer wrench with a good handle would have been easier. The device holder works well holding my nude 12.9" iPad Pro (not quite wide enough to fit with the case).No review of the app or membership program, not interested in the subscription!”
