JLL® Ventus 1 Air Rower, 2020 Model, Rowing Machine, Fitness, Cardio, Workout with Adjustable Dual Resistance, Air and Magnetic Resistance, 12-Month Warranty, Black and Yellow

Been using the rower twice a week since lockdown began and so far so good!Agree with previous comments that the instructions show the back and front leg pieces the other way around. We also felt some washers were missing and then noticed some were already attached to the screws (which wasn’t illustrated in the instructions) - but we were still short by a couple of washers (I’m hoping those weren’t essential). Apart from these, easy to assemble.The price for an air rower was good value for money - although some aspects could be improved. For example, when removing the sticker from the vent all the glue was left behind (quite frustratingly); the Velcro just about wraps my feet (size 4); and the finish of some pieces doesn’t look right (uploaded a picture of the piece where the handle sits, and what looks like a dent?). As said below, the sit does feel a bit wobbly at times but overall secure once you’re using it.No issues with screen at all (although I also rely on a fitness watch for tracking). Haven’t tried folding / storing it yet, so can’t comment on that aspect.Will keep updating the review, but as things stand I would recommend.

This is a space-friendly rower which is ideal for a beginner.Assembly is straightforward, taking around 30 mins, with adequate tools and instructions provided. When assembled, the machine felt solid.The resistance isn’t as strong as a Concept rowing machine, even at its highest setting. Nevertheless, this is less of a problem for a novice, as the resistance feels a lot harder after the first ten minutes!Things to note: a securing pin has to be engaged and disengaged to pull up the slider into a standing position. It is fiddly, but I imagine other rowers have the same (or similar) mechanism. Secondly, the computer does not receive input from the belt, but from the seat passing a sensor on the slider. This means that the computer doesn’t account for the effort you put into pulling a stroke - making it only useful for stroke count.For the price and the build quality however, this machine is good value for money.

Purchased to compensate for lack of cycling and running during lockdown. Arrived promptly. Assembled ok - the instructions have the front and back rest confused, but they look different and attach differently, so all ok. I thought at first some washers were missing but they were already on the bolts.Initial impressions after a few sessions are it works fine. There is a decent range of power options. The seat may have a slight wobble to it, which is a worry so soon.

For the price I paid for this, I don't know how you can beat this rower?Smooth action, comfy handles, and folds up well when not being used! My only criticism is I'd have liked a corresponding hole to put the pin in when it is folded, so it locks together folded.

Very easy to assemble and enough settings to challenge me during lockdown. Too easy for a typical bootcamp/cross-fit person like my husband but good enough for a lazy beginner like me! Folds fine so saves parking space in our flat. A bit louder than expected but as it's a fan rower, should not have been surprised so been rowing on the balcony fine.

Decent rower with a good level of resistance built in. I particularly like that you can fold this one and store it, it can be hard to move as only the front has wheels (which of course makes sense) but a solid bit of kit for the price.

Rower was good and easy to assemble.However on first use the equipment happened to be faulty.Sent an email stating the problem and has a quick response. Had to send it back as they wanted to see what the problem was.I had to return the equipment at my own cost which I haven’t been refunded for so I am now the cost of a return out of pocket. Got my refund for the product easy enough.

Product is totally flimsy. The footplate strap has broke (metal has bent) and while we were able to fix that, the handle has just completely snapped off mid-use. Also doesn’t measure meters which we need for any of the workouts we planned to do!Piece of crap DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
