Brand: Water Rower
Located in: Fitness Equipment, Rowing Machines, WROXBRIDGE
The WaterRower Oxbridge is hand crafted in solid Cherrywood. Like all woods, Cherrywood may vary in color from a red-brown to deep red. The wood will darken in color with exposure to light. For this reason all WaterRower Cherrywood components are kept in light free rooms to protect from shadowing. A new WaterRower Oxbridge will therefore appear quite light in color. The wood will however darken over time reaching a rich reddish hue. Each machine has been hand finished with three coats of Danish Oil giving a deep lustre an warmth to the wood. Wood has been chosen due to its marvellous engineering properties, primary amongst these is its ability to absorb sound and vibration enhancing the WaterRower's quietness and smoothness of use. Cherrywood, like all woods used in WaterRower construction, is a premium hardwood with incredible longevity and dimensional stability. For reasons of ecology, all our woods are harvested from replenishable forests.

Comments about Water Rower Oxbridge Rowing Machine - Cherry Wood:

Let me just start by saying I hate to exercise. I am too lazy to go to the gym, but when I used to go (ages ago), I hated all the machines except for the rowing machine--I had fond but hazy memories of that. When I decided I really needed to improve my fitness I knew I would never have the discipline to drive to the gym or to a running track several times a week, so I looked into getting a rowing machine. This one is very nice--it has a very smooth action, is sturdy and is attractive to look at. It was also pretty easy to put together, and I'm not too handy. It's great exercise and I don't have to bother with any special gear, shoes or clothes. I just plop down and start rowing. It gets my heart rate up and I can really feel my core, butt and thigh muscles working, plus it's easy on the joints. What's not to love?

Comments about Water Rower Oxbridge Rowing Machine - Cherry Wood:

This is a beautiful product that does not detract from my media room space. I am working on increasing the number of my workouts and I know it will serve well to help my weight loss and general cross training regimen. I suspect a true athlete or someone looking for an 'extreme' workout would be disappointed. However those who are looking for a low impact workout that will promote good core strength, core and upper body balance, moderate to high cardio improvement will be happy with this product. I am very happy with this purchase.
