Love what you are building! I'm a huge fan of meditation but haven't found one I can keep with. I've tried all the apps but fall off after a couple of sessions or weeks. I'm going to sign up for the free trial. Do you re

Great questions! 1: 60db is with moderate rowing. With hard rowing, it doesn't get much louder compared with say the Concept2 thanks to the nylon belt and smaller fan blades. 2: Still some basic functionality including a profile with w

Great point. I will add that RW600 does require a reoccurring membership for $468/yr after the first year.

We usually try not to position ourselves as the Peloton for rowing but it made sense here for people to quickly understand what we do. I think Peloton adding a rower is a great thing, it is going to bring more awareness to the benefits of r

We added a variety of guided off the rower programs that include exercises like push-ups. We even do things like use the frame to let the user perform incline and decline push-ups.

I can understand that. When Peloton first came out they were releasing content as often as we are now. Over time I'm sure we will get better. Thank you!

I agree. But a lot of people split the cost of the machine and membership with multiple people in a household. And a lot of people value the convenience of being able to have a fun and engaging workout any time, in the comfort of home.

Thanks for the feedback! Looks like we have to make improvements in our marketing. There are a variety of exercises that utilize the rower and are guided by instructions on the screen. Some involve the rower like bicep curls and tricep exte

After staying on the site for some time, a pop-up form asking for your email in return for an additional $150 off will appear. And yes, the membership is $29/mo or $25/mo if a year is paid up front.

Let me start off by saying the C2 is an amazing rower, but we thought we could improve on its design for the regular user who cares most about a fun and engaging experience. For example, the belt is industrial nylon (not plastic), the same

I also 100% agree. We have 2 learn how to row videos on the rower and provide live feedback during workout programs to help users workout properly and correct their form. I'm sure there are other things we can do. Thanks for commenting

Unfortunately, the membership only works with our rower at this time. But might be something we look into in the future.

You are 100% right, getting that on the water feel is very hard. For this reason and others, we put a fun and engaging experience + amazing workout > being as realistic as possible.
