The Pooboo magnetic rowing machine is the ultimate package for anyone looking to expand their at-home gym. At only 45 pounds, it is lightweight and very portable, and it fits riders from 5 to 6.5 feet tall with a weight capacity of 350 pounds. It's also easy to put together: It comes 85% completed, making the entire process hassle-free. It features eight levels of magnetic resistance and is whisper-quiet, ensuring others around you are not disturbed. Equipped with ergonomic handles and a cushioned seat, each rowing session feels like a plush ride.
“Being an athletic guy, I was concerned if it would provide enough resistance to make the workout right for me,” one shopper confessed. “Luckily, it does, as there are over eight levels of resistance to choose from. It's ergonomically friendly, the seat is much better than most rowers, and it glides nicely and freely with each stroke.”
“It feels very sturdy, and I am 280 pounds," said another shopper. "The seat moves great with no problems. It's quiet and is a very solid choice for a rower…The resistance range is great for me. The foot straps are really good too—a hidden gem of budget rowers.”
The Pooboo foldable rowing machine is a clear winner when it comes to rowers, and with a price tag to match, it’s easy to see why it's selling out fast, so be sure to grab yours today before the discount disappears.
