The standard – just sit down and start rowing
The Concept2 RowErg is the standard. In CrossFit Boxes, rehab clinics, performance centers, home gyms – the same machine everywhere. Why? Because it works. The air resistance adapts automatically: The harder you pull, the more resistance you get. No adjusting, no switching. Just sit down and start rowing. Full-body training that's easy on your joints.Simple design, built to last decades
Concept2 has been building these machines in Vermont for over 40 years. The construction is simple and robust – few parts, little wear, minimal maintenance. If something does break: spare parts are available and easy to replace yourself. The machine separates into two pieces and stores upright – perfect for home gyms with limited space. The PM5 monitor syncs via Bluetooth with apps like ErgData or Zwift. A machine you buy once and use for decades.Technical Specifications

Customer reviews
We've had the RowErg in our Box for 12 years. It just keeps running – reliable, no surprises. If something does go wrong, you order the spare part and swap it yourself. No technician needed. The only thing that occasionally annoys me: changing the batteries. But that's my only criticism after 12 years – I think that says everything. Whether for the Box, the home gym, or rehab: The RowErg is the standard, and for good reason. Buy once, use for decades.
