Water Rower A1 S4 WaterRower Rowing Machine, Review

Row your way to fitness with the unique Water Rower A1 S4 Rowing Machine, designed to simulate the feel of real rowing on water.

Row to the relaxing quiet whooshing sound and fluid motion of the WaterRower A1’s water flywheel. The WaterRower’s flywheel sits in an enclosed water tank and effectively offers similar resistance to real water rowing. The amount of water you put in the tank will affect the resistance and you can self-regulate the resistance by rowing faster/harder to increase the drag for a more intensive workout.

The WaterRower A1 is designed with an aluminum monorail with no impact and non-load bearing, making it suitable for all people of all fitness levels.  Rowing machines in general utilize all the major muscle groups to tone and strengthen the entire body and also give a good cardio workout too.

To keep you motivated, the WaterRower A1 comes with an S4 monitor that displays motivating workout stats including time per 2 or 500 kms, watts, distance, total time, and calories burned.

The WaterRower A1 Rowing Machine is designed for ease of use and requires very little maintenance with no need for lubrication.  It utilizes a smooth nylon strapping (no chain to oil) and a pulley-free bungee cord.  The only thing that is required is that you need to add a purification tablet to the water in the tank around every 3 to 6 months.

For convenience, the WaterRower A1 can be stored upright to save space without having to empty out the water tank.

The WaterRower A1 is available in a choice of natural or rose color and is constructed from high-quality ash wood (sourced from replenished forests for sustainability) and finished with Danish Oil to give it its beautiful lustre color.





Fitness tip:  Rowing for just 30 minutes could burn between 262-449 calories for women or 310-531 calories for men, depending on the intensity of the workout.

See what some customers who have bought the Water Rower A1 S4 WaterRower Rowing Machine have to say about it:

S.T.:
“The WaterRower A1 is functional and well-designed.  I did a lot of research before buying this WaterRower.  I like the dark stained wood and the S4 monitor.  This model isn’t on WaterRower’s website but it is an authorized model and sold only by retailers (I asked a WaterRower rep about this!).  The WaterRower was easy to assemble and I watched some YouTube videos before beginning some workouts.  I wasn’t sure if I’d enjoy it as I’m new to rowing but I’ve now got into a routine rowing 4 times a week.  The sound of water is soothing and the seat glides extremely fluidly.  The S4 instructions aren’t great – they’re more geared towards telling you what the screens display rather than how to maximize your workouts.  Overall, I’m very pleased with the A1 and it’s well worth the money for my improved well-being.”

K.D.:
“The WaterRower A1 is a wonderful rowing machine and worth every penny.  It arrived in 2 boxes and my husband assembled it in under 1 hour.  The water resistance is smooth and it feels like you’re really rowing on water.  The design of the feet placement on this monorail version is perfect to be in line with my hip bones.  Both myself and my husband use this WaterRower and get a great workout from it.  We fill it to 17 litres which is high for women and low for men.  It helps to watch YouTube to make sure you get good form and get the most out of your workouts.”
