I did try one once in a shop but didn't like it very much. A bit like a C2
with knackered bearings if I remember correctly. The bloke in the shop did
say that it wasn't set up very well though.

They are V cheap however, which is always good.

Out of interest I posted a similar question to yours on Rachel Quarrell's
noticeboard about six months ago. I only got two responses, both asking if
I'd had any replies rather than telling me anything useful.

I also did a fairly extensive web search which came up with diddly squat of
any use. Sorry

Could be OK. But why go past Row Perfect, Concept 2 and Waterrower?

The feet look to be a bit further apart than in a boat. The readout looks
to be rudimentary, with figures a bit too small to read easily when you are
going hard and feeling tired. Check that you can vacuum inside easily as
machines like this suck a bit of dust in through the sides and it clogs up
the inside of the curved surface of the cage

Stick with the big 3 machines.

...well I'm a big fun of concept 2 , I've used them in my club for over 10
years. I want to buy an ergometer to use it at home.The problem is that I
can't afford a new concept 2 and I can't find a used one.
So I'm trying to find out if delta airmaster can be used by rowers or it is
just for lady's who want to lose weight.Have you used it? Has the motion
have to do anything with rowing or I'll have problems with the handle, which
seems to be very low(note that I'm quite tall (1.93m))?

thanks

how desparate I'm!
