Functional design, right down to the last detail. WaterRower rowing machines have been manufactured with utmost care and passion for detail for more than 30 years. Invented by John Duke in 1988, the rowing machine’s easy function and timeless design stem from the basic idea, that dry land training should simulate the given conditions on water as closely as possible.Timeless appeal and prestige: the WaterRower has received the PlusX Award for its unique design. Our rowers stand for design in your home interior, at the workplace and in the fitness studio.
