Definitely not enough tension! The difference between setting 1 and 16 is almost unnoticeable. Decently built and sturdy for its price, bummed about the lack of tension.
I truly enjoy my rower..it is a wonderful full body workout..at first I thought it was easy lol lol ..then I started working out with your Sunny on line instructors ...made a big difference...she pushes me thru my 20 minutes of rowing.. The rower shipped quickly & the instructions are so very easy to follow..thank you for that ..very well made & easy to move. Thank you so much ;-)
Easy to assemble and very sturdy. When I first started using it, my feet kept coming out of the foot rests, so I had to learn how to strap them in better. Despite having 16 resistance levels, I'm really not feeling that much difference between them and could really use greater levels of resistance to have a more challenging workout. The stroke counter is not accurate.
