The WaterRower Classic is hand crafted in solid American Black Walnut.

Like all woods, Black Walnut may vary in color from a rich brown to purple-black.

Each machine has been hand finished with three coats of Danish Oil giving a deep lustre an warmth to the wood.

Wood has been chosen due to its marvellous engineering properties, primary amongst these is its ability to absorb sound and vibration enhancing the WaterRower's quietness and smoothness of use.

Black Walnut, like all woods used in WaterRower construction, is a premium hardwood with incredible longevity and dimensional stability.

For reasons of ecology, all our woods are harvested from replenishable forests.

How It Works

The WaterRower's patented WaterFlywheel has been designed to emulate the exact dynamics as a boat moving through water;  the objective of the exercise of rowing

The outcome is an exercise with uncanny similarity to the "real thing", including

Naturally Self Paced - anyone can row regardless of age, sex, size of level of fitness

Naturally Self Regulating Resistance - the WaterRower's patented WaterFlywheel alters resistance according to the users intensity

Naturally Even Stroke - works the muscle groups evenly, and in proportion to their strength

Natural Fluid Connection - no jerkiness or jarring like conventional mechanical rowers

Naturally Good for the Back - strengthens the posture and muscles of the core
