I just got my stamina 1205 rower and love it.Its exactly what I ordered .Its easy to put together and use.Can't wait to get a workout program started.
The only thing I found during assembely was in step #3 it doesn't call up any flat washers and none are supplied,but there needed to cover the slotted holes to keep the lock washers from pulling through the brackets. I installed some anyway.As I said above I love it.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

I like to use the product in the evenings while watching TV. I've had the rower for about 2 weeks and it was fairly quiet at first, but I have noticed it is starting to make a loud squeak when pulling back on the bars. It seems to do this once the shocks have become hot. It did take 2 people to put together and took us about 45 mins. All in all, its the product that I had expected and would refer a friend.

I use this product because I have a young son and its hard to get out of the house to go to the gym or to run. I like that it was cheaper then a treadmill but gives your a great Cardio work out.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

As a personal trainer who trains from my house, the right equipment is essential for my clients as well as for my own personal use. I ordered the stamina because it was reasonably priced, portable, and works all major muscle groups. It has been a great addition for my circuit training and also for interval training. Only thing that has been an issue is the resistance element. It loosens up during workouts. Not a huge hinderance.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

The 1205 works great and fun to use, it needs to be a little off the floor and have a back for the seat, at my age, its hard to get down so low without support.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

[...] I could have gotten this machine anywhere else for the same price, but only the Rowing Machine offered a 5 year Warrenty. That is what sealed the deal for me. On to the machine. It is a sturdy, relatively easy machine to use that is very easy to setup. So far I have not run into any of the issues of shock problem and roller problem that some of the other buyers have encountered, but with a 5 year warranty, who cares. My problem is that I am too impulsive of a buyer that is always looking for the great price for an item. I wish that I would have researched other rowing machines to find the one that would make me the happiest. I do not like the fact that I have to manually change the resistance on the machine, but that is my fault for not buying a machine that has the automatic function. I do not like the fact that there are no preprogramed workouts on the machine, but this too is my fault for not buying a machine that offers this function. All in all, if you are looking for an inexpensive rowing machine that has little to no frills, this is your machine. With a 5 year warranty [...], you can't go wrong. If you are looking for something more advanced, check out the more expensive models offered by TRMSS and get what you truely want.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

This is our first rowing machine and we had no idea what to expect. Didn't want to spend a lot of money without knowing how we would like rowing. We are very satisfied with this product and would recommend it to others. I'm not so crazy with the feet straps; they are huge and you are basically just keeping your feet on the pedals on your own but it seems to work out just fine. My husband had no problems putting it together. Also, there are no instructions on how to use the meter that it has so we are lost on it's operation. Overall, we have really enjoyed using the rowing machine and are satisfied with what we received for the money that was spent. We may move on to bigger and better once we are "expert" at this one but overall are happy with this product. It was money well spent.

The machine is simple to operate and provides good all-around exercise. It needs to be raised because it is difficult for old knees to bend and allow sitting without the use of a support to hold onto. Once seated, it is a delight to use.

I have used rowing machines of this type on and off for the past 25 years. The rubber spacer between the center beam and the Pedal began disintegrating within one week of use. There should be a washer between the two parts. I purchased two metric washers and installed them in order to assure that the machine would not fail within a short period of time.

I hardly expected to completely assemble it, especially since the ad did not mentioned that you shipped only the parts. The picture showed it assembled. I would recommend this product but would state it is shipped unassembled. At that price this was a disappointment. I am 82 years old and don't need the hassle.

The spot welds that joined the pistons to the mounting ring broke after 71 minutes of usage. I had them rewelded and since then it's been fine. I'd recommend having them welded before you use it, as it is a lot easier to weld before they break.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

only took a few hours to set up. the instructions were probably the worst part, the washers didnt match the pictures and the references between drawings didnt make it simple to find each piece. also all the hardware was lumped into one bag.but now that its together it works great. excellent workout even on the easiest setting. used to wake up in the morning with back pain. no more. row a little each day and i feel great.

My only real complaint is that the black rubber "feet" left indelible stains on my floor (linoleum). I have had to put something under each foot pad to protect the floor -- and yet not allow the machine to move.

This would seem to bean easy problem for the manufactured to solve.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

This is the second rower I've bought in the last six years. The first one was great. Can't remember the brand name, but it was built more solid and helped me loose over 100 lbs. I'm at 198 lbs now and, when my other rower needed to be retired, I thought getting this Stamina 1205 would fit the bill.

I had problems from the beginning:
1) the setup was FAR more complicated that what it should be.
2) parts were missing

Then, about two weeks after I purchased it, the right hand shock started giving me problems. I called for a replacement part and they did ship it, but the replacement part only lasted a month, and then it started oozing out oil!!!! Good thing I exercise in my utility room because it would have ruined my carpet.

Also, the seat now doesn't give a smooth ride. I can't believe how bad this product is. Here's a piece of advice: don't buy this product, and if you do, don't work out with it in a carpeted area.

This is the worst rower and I cannot even recommend this to my worst enemies...and I'm a fairly nice fellow. I apologize for the bluntness of this review, but I'm really disappointed and I want a full refund.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

Overall a good product. However, after a week or two, the squeeks are intollerable and regular oiling is required.

I was delighted to receive an addition benefit from my rower. I had a cronic shoulder problem that just flat out disapeared just weeks into my rowing workouts. My only negative comment could be that the pistons started to make alot of squeaking sounds during my workouts, that is a small price to pay for the benefits I've received.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

The machine was easy to set up and is well-made. I've used it often during the last year; nothing has failed or worn. It provides good total-body exercise, and can easily be set for increasing strength levels. I'm 6'2 - the machine might be small for someone much taller, but is fine for my height. Overall - a lot of well-designed machine for the price[...] no complaints.

I use the rowing machine for about 25 minutes a days, five days a week. Given my age, the available settings (mechanical) on the machine make it possible for me to get a decent workout. The seating is comfortable, but the machine squeaks a lot. All said and done, it's a good value for the price I paid.

I use the Stamina 1205 to maintain the condition of my upper body especially. I use the treadmill daily but the Rower provides an excellent balance in my daily routine. It's very smooth, quiet, easy to use, the seat is comfortable, gives a great workout, and I just lean it on end against the wall when not in use. Allow plenty of time to put the parts together and use a socket wrench to make assembly easier. I'm very glad I bought it.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

I initially wanted to use this device several times a week. But the first time I set it up, there were problems with the unequalled resistance of the pistons. I had to wait several weeks for a replacement. Now this one makes so much noise I fear to row for driving my fellow tenents below, mad.

This rower is a very sturdy product. It's not for anyone with back issues however. I like to close my eyes and pretend I'm on the water. Not with the noisy "oars" of this product. The foot holds need some refining but all in all, it's a good buy.

This is a great product for someone who is just beginning to work-out or needs supplemental cardio in their current routine. As someone who has tried a lot of exercise equipment, I would rate this as average. I love the fact that you can sit it in front of the television and row away. However, the tightener clamps on the rowing arms constantly slip. I have to stop rowing and retighten them--very annoying. The seat gets a little uncomfortable after about 10 minutes, but it is tolerable. It does seem to run quietly which is important as I live in an apartment building. I use the rower on cold mornings for supplemental cardio or when I cannot run or do step aerobics and weight training.

We use the rowing machine 3-4 times a week. It gives you a nice workout.

The machine went together rather easily. One area lacking was the instructions regarding the tightness required for some of the bolts. If to tight, you get a squeal.

The timer was not used. It seemed to be to complicated to set up. We use an egg timer with a bell to tell us the end of our workout.

I would recommend this unit to anyone that is looking for a low impact exercise machine.

I really like my rower and it really suits my needs. I especially like that I can set it up on end behind a door. I do wish that there was more resistance in the seat as it slides to give my legs some resistance. For those who like the easy glide, it is that. Overall, a good purchase

I've had my stamina 1205 for over a year and use it several times a week, but only for short durations, ten minutes at the most. It seems to be a great help for my knees and back. The bearings in one of the seat rollers seemt to be going out, but other than that it has worked fine. I think it is a good value for the money.

I also have an elipticl trainer and a weider weight machine and over the years have had all kinds of equipment.
I purchased this model/price so be sure I could and would use it. A rower can be a problem if you have low back problems if you are not careful with your form. It is low impact on joints which is one of my problems. I am 66 yrs old.

I really like this little baby. It works out so many muscles, gets your heart rate going and doesn't take up any room to speak of.

When this one wears out I will buy a more expensive model. You do get what you pay for...you don't expect to get a lexus for the price of a Ford.

It's a solid build and is light enough to move from room to room. My problem is with the pistons. I ordered this product back in April and within 40 days noticed the left piston had lost resistance (I was using it daily). I ordered the replacement and received it in about two weeks. About 15 days ago I started using it again in my daily workout when the replacement piston sprung a leak and spilled oil all over my carpet. Not only that but the right piston has been losing resistance as well. I have both on the lowest setting so I can't understand why they are failing. I'm going to order replacements again, but only to sell it. The pistons just don't seem durable enough for daily use.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

It is very convenient to use at home. It is sturdy and adjustable, to fit one's needs. It is exactly what I was looking for in home exercise equipment. The only cons I find, is that it's quite bulky and heavy. It's too bulky to fit under the bed.

I was disappoint to find that this machine was not suited to someone of my small stature (5'1")--the height of the handlebars made the rowing motion very awkward and uncomfortable. If I were taller, it might have been different, but I hated using it.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

I purchased the rower to help me be more agressive in re-habing after shoulder surgery. As with most shoulder surgery recovery routines, mine featured avoiding exercises that put stress on the joint by having the hands above shoulder height while bearing weight. The rower offered repetitive resistance training that did not jeopardize the shoulder joint. As a result, I returned to the tennis court sooner and with less pain and more range of motion than if I hadn't used the rower.

I workout at the gym 4 days per week and use my rowing machine the other 3. Also if I am not feeling well and don't want to share my germs I skip the gym altogether and just use my rowing machine. I have used other rowing machines in the past but this one is so light, easy to store and easy to put together that I used it the day it was delivered and will definitely buy another if anything ever happens to this one!

This rowing machine is so easy to use it's actually fun. Just set up with a nearby radio or in front of a TV and you forget you're actually doing exercise! And best of all, it works too. You definetly feel the heart rate rise and begin to find muscles you had forgotten existed. The only down side of the machine is that it's difficult to store and conceal under any of my furniture, so it either stays in the middle of my floor or propped up against a wall. Other that that I highly recommend this machine for the beginner or the athlete wanting to stay up on their performance.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

A good (but generic) rower with a few downsides. Within the first week or so, one of the gas pistons sprung a leak; the company sent a replacement part immediately. Also, the foam handgrips tend to wear and split rather quickly if you use the machine regularly (4+ days a week). Finally, the left foot rest gnawed its plastic spacer (the part that separates the foot rest from the main body) into powder. This eventually led to the foot rest occasionally banging against the main body of the rower.

All in all, though, if you're interested in trying out rowing as an exercise but don't want to pay for an expensive machine or a gym membership, this is a good start to see if you want to invest further. Also, with the great customer service and the 5-year warranty, those part problems will probably be moot in the long run.

Comments about Stamina Stamina 1205 Precision Rowing Machine - FREE Monitor 5-Year Warranty!:

Its an OK workout if you dont have access to a treadmill or cant run. For the price, you basically get what you pay for. Personally Id invest in a good treadmill but for a low impact workout its satisfactory.
