Description

Sit down, start rowing – the standard in every Box

The Concept2 RowErg is the rowing machine you'll find in nearly every CrossFit Box, rehab clinic, university and Olympic training center. The air resistance reacts to you: the harder you pull, the more you get back. No switching, no setup at the start – just sit down and start rowing. The stroke is smooth and easy on the joints, hitting legs, core and upper body in one movement. That's exactly why coaches see the Concept 2 rowing machine as a tool for everyone: beginners, competition athletes, seniors, rehab patients. If you're going to commit to a rower, commit to one you'll still be using in 20 years.

Vermont build, proven for 40 years

Concept2 has been building these machines in Vermont, USA, for more than four decades. The construction is simple: steel frame, aluminum monorail, nickel-plated chain, air resistance flywheel. Few parts, little wear, minimal maintenance. If something does fail, you order the spare part and swap it yourself – no technician required. The PM5 monitor delivers watts, split times, distance and calories live, syncing via Bluetooth Smart and ANT+ with ErgData, Zwift, Kinomap and anything else that speaks the Concept2 standard. Taken apart, the machine stands upright in any corner – out of the way until the next session. Assembled in 10 minutes – even the next time around.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much maintenance does the Concept 2 rower need?
Very little. Oil the chain occasionally with a few drops of 3-in-1 oil, that's it. The only other regular task is changing the PM5 monitor batteries (2× D). The bearings and flywheel run maintenance-free for years.
How do I set the resistance correctly?
The damper on the side regulates airflow (levels 1–10). Important: the real resistance comes from you – the harder you pull, the more you get back. Most athletes train between levels 3–5. Higher feels heavier, but isn't automatically better for your training.
What's included in the box?
The complete RowErg, the PM5 monitor with Bluetooth and ANT+, a smartphone holder, the required tools, the illustrated assembly manual and the quick-start guide for the monitor. The 2× D batteries for the monitor are not included. Assembly takes about 10 minutes.
How much space do I need?
Assembled, roughly 244 × 61 cm, plus a bit of clearance behind and to the sides. Split into two pieces and stored upright, only about 63 × 83 cm – fits into any corner or storage closet.
Up to what body weight is the RowErg rated?
Concept2 has tested the machine up to 227 kg user weight. Per the European standard ISO 20957-7, it's officially rated for 135 kg. Translation: even heavier athletes can sit down without concern.
Which apps work with the PM5 monitor?
ErgData (free from Concept2), Zwift, Kinomap, most heart-rate apps and basically anything that supports the Concept2 standard. Connection runs via Bluetooth Smart or ANT+. Data saves and syncs automatically.
Is the rowing machine suitable for rehab and older trainees?
Yes. The movement is smooth, joint impact minimal. That's exactly why the RowErg sits in many rehab clinics, physio practices and senior training programs. From a 10-year-old to an 80-year-old, everyone trains on the same machine.

Customer reviews

The Concept 2 was one of the first pieces of equipment we ever put in our Box. It's been running ever since – daily, without drama. If something does go wrong, you order the spare part and swap it in 10 minutes yourself. No technician, no service appointment. The only thing that comes up regularly: changing the monitor batteries. After more than a decade of daily use, that's my only criticism – 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, row for decades.
