 "York 2 in 1 Rower" 2009-11-22
By Mr. A. Mccarthy (scotland)
I bought this Rower/Cycle after a minor heart attack to get back into shape and build up my heart strength. This machine allows me to monitor and gradually build up confidence in a controlled manor. I previously owned another cycle machine, But the combined rower allows a complete body toner and loads of enjoyment.

 "Not quite there" 2009-03-27
By Ian Rupp
I received this item a few months ago. Delivery and service were good. The cycle rower is relatively easy to set up, but had a couple of small problems with pedal straps and centre post insert. However the York "person" was very helpful and replaced these within a couple of days. I use the Cycle and Rower and find them both very good. The Computer is helpful, showing speed,distance,time and calories.



However the heart rate monitoring part is so erratic it could be dangerous. I think York would be better off not including this as part of the equipment. My wife and I both use the cycle and both find the same problem. We have tried all sorts of different holds and used "gel" ( the connections are on the handlebars) but still get the same useless readings. When I asked York for help/advice I was told that "it doesn't work for everybody". In that case should they be selling this as a feature? They do have a "telemetry" option (heart rate transmission belt wirelessly connected to the computer) at extra cost. I was told this is out of stock and would be so for at least 6 weeks, with no lead time as to when it would be available. So I have bought a different heart rate monitor which works very well.

So to sum up the equipment is very good and does what I hoped for, with the exception of the heart rate monitoring. Perhaps York should consider including the "telemetry" option as standard.

 "I didn't want to like it - but I do!" 2008-11-14
By bookelephant (London)
I have to say I was looking for excuses not to like this - I actually have no desire to become a person who uses an exercise bike or rower. BUT it really is rather good and such an easy way of getting a bit of exercise. It is fine to assemble - but possibly best with two people to share the "fun", and completely straightforward to use. Conversion of rower from bike is beyond simple. Only problem is if you have the bike facing the TV, the rower will face away from it, and turning it round is no mean feat - it is quite heavy (as all these things are, of course). I'm only not giving 5 stars because I resent liking it, and the seat sometimes squeaks!

 "Can't monitor speed and time!" 2009-12-02
By James Beattie (Falkirk, Scotland)
The monitor seems to reset after a set amount of time. It repeats this resetting process throughout the workout. I used it twice but there is not much use in blankly rowing away with no idea of how fast etc.. Seemed OK other than that but these flaws make it redundant.

 "A good value, quality piece of equipment" 2009-09-01
By Rob SR (UK)
Easy to assemble, no parts missing, up and ready to use within 20 minutes.



For its price this rowing machine compares well to much more expensive machines i have used in fitness centres. A good action and a build quality which gives an impression that this rower will last well.



As others have reported, the computer self-cancels, but a call to customer services had a new updated computer head on its way to me in a couple of days. In the meantime the problem was solved by unattaching the head and lying it alongside, where static charge from the belt did not affect the electronics.



Recommended, so far as I'm concerned. I already feel the benefits from regular all over workouts, without the strain on joints that I find with treadmills or exercise bikes.

 "Good value for money and easy assembly" 2009-08-02
By danfoto (South-east England)
I noted the comments in other reviews about the self-tapping screws that don't fit, but what I found is that they ARE the right size!



I'm pretty sure the problem (such as it is) is that some buyers are having trouble because (a) they're using the supplied "screwdriver" and (b) they don't expect properly-fitting self-tapping screws to be a tight fit.



The answer is simply to use a proper screwdriver that fits correctly and a fair bit of oomph.



Speaking as an ex-production engineer, I can't fault this machine for the price paid.

 "Good machine, but build quality lets it down" 2009-07-31
By Martin Ballard (Chester, UK)
The York R700 is a good general exercise machine, and on the face of it, it seems well constructed. However I found that during construction bolts were of very poor quality and I replaced several with better quality ones of my own. The foot straps seem to be an afterthought and the foot pads keep peeling off. In fact all stickers and labels were poorly fixed, and most have come off.



In operation, the R700 has proven to be a very good machine though. The digital read-out is clear and easy to use.

 "A Sturdy Machine Suitable For Taller People" 2009-07-18
By C James (UK)
Ordered using express delivery and delivered next day by City Link on a Saturday morning - excellent service!



I can verify a previous review that the four self-tapping screws simply do not fit the holes, but I remedied this problem by drilling out the holes using the next-size-up drill bit, and then the supplied screws fitted just fine.



I am 6'5" tall with a 35" inside leg, and this machine is plenty big enough. I can fully extend my legs whilst rowing, and the seat doesn't touch the safety stop at the back of the slider bar. The machine is sturdy and heavy (36kg) and doesn't feel like it's going to break during an intense workout.



I read problems about the computer re-setting when set for a specific workout program, which almost put me off buying it, but you don't have to set a workout program for it to monitor and display your time, distance, speed (minutes per 500M) and burned calories. It automatically comes on and starts counting as soon as you start rowing.



Overall I'm very happy with my purchase, especially since the Amazon price was over £50 cheaper than on my local High Street!
