Goes Rusty Advantages: Quiet, good basic range of training sessions Disadvantages: Goes rusty ...after buying and having the Life fitness people install the equipment, some of the external screws went rusty. The Life fitness repair person said oh yes you need to lacker these as sweat is quite corrosive to the metal. Unfortunately I was not told this when it was installed, they are not done automatically by the manufacturer. He was instructed by his supervisor that he was not to replace them. There get out - apparently a dehumidified out-house ... ...the screws that went were right in line for this. Other equipment from other manufacturers has not suffered in the same way. Given the Life fitness attitude, if you can avoid them do - I bought about 5000 pounds of equipment from them and this is how I was treated. ...

Fluid Rower has really developed my muscle and fitness Advantages: cheaper than a concept 2, can be stood on its end to save space. Disadvantages: you need to fill with water !!!! I have been looking at getting fir after suffering with a bad back. Wanted something that I could use to exercise my whole body. I dont really care for swiming so looked at various fitness and gym equipment and settled for a indoor rowing machine. I like the fluid rower as it made a really nice swishing sound as you row as the resistance is water based. As you row you getting the sound of water almost as if you were at sea. The build quality is very ... ...together, before I had made my purchase I had watched several vieos on utube and also did a lot of research.

A decent in-front-of-the-telly magnetic exercise bike Advantages: Low cost magnetic resistance bike, pretty sturdy for the price Disadvantages: Seating position not necessarily the most comfortably, not great for shorter people! My previous exercise bike of many years (mostly used as a clothes horse, but more recently brought into service in a determined attempt to get fitter and thinner) recently broke. Specifically, its resistance strap wore through and the ride became more like freewheeling down a hill than anything more energetic. With this in mind I decided to go for a bike with magnetic resistance. I settled on this one as, not only did it fulfil my criteria of a magnetic ... ...was also foldable, and storage space is an issue in my house. As is usual in my reviews, I'll discuss my reasons for my ratings in the 'Specific Criteria,' and include and extra section of general comments. Durability At £79.99 (when I bought it) this was the cheapest magnetic resistance bike I could find, which didn't fill me with high expectations about the quality of the product. I'm pleased to say that I have been pleasantly surprised- ... temporalbandit 21.08.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Pro Fitness Foldable Magnetic X Bike	Durability Comfort Value for money
Fluid Rower No Slip and No Slack for this indoor water rower Advantages: well made, great water sound, no slip or slack, great seat hight, very solid Disadvantages: Interactive monitor not as advanced as concept 2, ...any wrist ache. My first few strokes on the Fluid Rower convinced me I was going to buy it, the instant grab and resistance, the swish and swoosh of the water, it felt perfect. Interactive monitor isnt as good as the concept 2 for features, but would rather have a good rowing machine than upload gimick figures to forums !!! Very easy to put together with some good videos on you tube under fluid rower.

Very good, reasonable exercise bike Advantages: Cheap and durable Disadvantages: Pulse detector I think that this bike is perfect for light users. I bought mine in Jan 09 and have been using it daily ever since. It is incredibly easy to build, anyone could do it!! It has clear concise assembly instructions and all of the tools are included. I love the pulse counter on the handlebars, but it does take some doing to get it right as it doesn't always pick up your pulse. You have to get your palms in exactly the right position for it to work.
