JOROTO MR60 Patented Dual Resistance Rower | Air & Magnetic

I love this rower! I had difficulty adjusting the footrests for my smaller foot size. My husband was able to adjust them though by using a little more force.

I like everything about the Joroto MR60 except the size of the wheels, which are good on tile or hard floor but are too small to go over carpet without struggling. Other than that, I got what I expected and more. Psu11y

I have used the Concept 2 for over 20 years. I reviewed the MR60 and decided to take a chance on this new rower. While it was several hundred dollars cheaper than the Concept , the unit seemed well made. I decided to take a chance on a purchase. The MR60 is well made. It was somewhat easy to put together. The machining of pieces were fairly exact , so everything fit together nicely. The rear bumper stop for the seat I initially put on upside down; but quickly noticed and reversed it.

I checked out the Kinomap App that is supported with this rower and ultimately decided not to use it . The rower performed nicely... it was quiet and smooth. The rowing movement was fluid. The resistance knob worked well and indeed offered an extra challenge. I have worked out for years. At age 74 I am in fairly good shape. I ended up using setting 4 and 5 . I am not sure I will ever reach resistance level 10. It is hard. My only complaint is that the monitor lights up for a few seconds, then darkens. That probably prolongs battery life. I needed to shine a lamp ( light) directly on the monitor screen to view the data as I rowed. The data seemed accurate and the monitor otherwise worked well.

I was most impressed by the customer service. They seemed to be located in China; but that was not a problem. They were responsive and courteous . I got replies to my e-mails in less than 24 hours. The English was for the most part written clearly and understandable. Over all I am very satisfied. I set my machine in front of a 55" high def TV and watch YouTube rowing videos while rowing. There is also a place to put a iPad just above the monitor. Rowing to the various videos was indeed a cool and pleasant experience. The quiet and smooth operation of the rower enabled me to view the video sounds without difficultly or interference. I would buy this machine again.

Great machine for us 300 pounders. The only thing that I would change would be the travel distance on the rail. I have short legs and I still bang on both ends of the rail. Coulda been a 5 star.
