I was nervous when i called amazon and all they could do was a 30 discount on a new one from a different company

Xterra customer service rhiannon handled my claim quickly to have replacements sent out

Packaging/appearance


The packaging was really good the instructions were very user friendly easy to set up and operate

    It does have various tensions but only by adding or removing water from the tank


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Used this rower for moderateintense workouts daily for about five months and loved it until the mechanism that controls the resistance pedals in the tub started slipping like a clutch does

    It got to the point where i couldn’t get a very strenuous workout without this mechanism slipping too much


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was able to get hold of the company fairly easily midoctober and was told the problem i was having was known to them and would have to order replacement parts under warranty
