Max. user weight
The value of the maximum allowable load on the design of the rowing machine (due to the weight of the athlete). If the weight of the athlete exceeds the maximum value, then the structural elements of the equipment may fail. The most common user weight limits are: up to 100 kg, up to 120 kg, up to 140 kg and over 140 kg.
Flywheel weight
The weight of the flywheel affects the stroke length of the rowing machine handles. The higher the weight, the more the machine can provide a higher degree of load.
Load levels
Rowing machines can work with varying degrees of load. Depending on the model, the equipment can counteract the athlete's efforts both in a wide range of values (the possibility of fine-tuning the load is implied) and in the mode of stepwise load creation. The widest range of loads is created by rowing machines with an electromagnetic load system (see paragraph "Load system").
Foldable design
The exercise machine is equipped with
a foldable frame which can be easily folded to a compact size. This makes the storage process more convenient since the foldable design allows you to significantly reduce the dimensions of the rowing machine. Note that the folding type of construction does not reduce the rigidity of the frame of the rowing machine. Folding does not require much effort or a special tool, the process takes only a couple of minutes.
Transport rollers
Transport rollers allow the rowing machine to be easily manoeuvred around the gym until the most suitable location for the equipment is determined. When the optimal place for installing the rowing machine is found, the wheelbase is replaced by fixed stops, that is, the rigid legs of the machine's frame.
Country of origin
The country from which the product brand originates. The brand in this case can be described as a general designation by which the goods of a particular manufacturer are known in the market. The country of its origin does not always coincide with the actual place of production of the product: to reduce the cost of production, many modern companies transfer it to other countries. It is quite normal for products, for example, of an American or German brand, to be made in Taiwan or Turkey. Contrary to popular belief, this in itself does not lead to a decrease in the quality of the goods — it all depends on how carefully the brand owner controls the production. And many companies, especially large and famous, monitor the quality very zealously — after all, their reputation depends on it.
Dimensions
The dimensions of the equipment in the assembled and ready-to-work state. It is important to note that more space is needed for the comfortable and proper operation of the rowing machine.
