Product description – WaterRower rowing machine Oak (Natural Oak)

The WaterRower rowing machines are very suitable if you like sturdy rowing training that is very natural.

The compact design makes these rowing machines perfect for home use, so you can work on your cardio whenever you want, comfortably from home.

Why choose the WaterRower rowing machine Oak?

- Equipped with double rails so you can train stably.
- Made from sustainably managed American oak wood.
- A real designer piece that fits into any interior style.
- Easy to store with the integrated transport wheels.
- Adjust the training intensity with the water level.

For what training goals can you use the WaterRower?

Rowing training puts your entire body to work, both the upper and lower body. Muscles that are used for this include your back muscles, abdominal muscles, arm muscles and thigh muscles. You can use a rowing machine in different ways, such as:

- As a warm-up. A good warm-up significantly reduces the risk of injuries. E.g. when you do strength training.
- To become (and stay) fitter, do you lack energy and do you (sometimes) feel lethargic? Then rowing training will quickly make you feel fitter and more energetic.
- To lose weight, because you burn a lot of calories during a rowing workout.

A design that fits into any interior

In addition to the fact that the WaterRower is a great rowing machine, its elegant and natural look also makes it a beautiful addition to your interior. Whether you have a modern, rural or classic interior, the Oak WaterRower will always be a beautiful addition to your interior.

The oak wood used to make the WaterRower rowing machines comes from sustainably managed forests in the Appalachian Mountain region in the eastern part of America. In this region, replanting trees is done on average 2.29 times faster than harvesting trees. This means that more forest is created than is used.

The Oak WaterRower has a sleek finish with Danish Oil, an oil that has been used to finish wood for hundreds of years. This gives you an extra beautiful result and a perfect finish of the wood.

The wood used is very robust and perfect for making the rowing machines. Wood has the property of dampening vibrations and shocks, making your training extra comfortable.

The famous rowing machine from the House of Cards series

In the well-known series House of Cards you saw Kevin Spacey, who plays Frank Underwood, regularly rowing. We are regularly asked which rowing coach Frank Underwood is currently rowing in the series. In the series, Kevin Spacey rows on the Classic Walnut rowing machine. Frank received the WaterRower in the series from his wife Claire, played by Robin Wright.

The symbolism is not noticed by every viewer and is more of a hint. Some see it as a suggestion from Claire, a sports fan, to Frank that he should take better care of himself as he gets older.

The House of Cards production crew looked at quite a few rowers for the series and ultimately chose the WaterRower rowing machine. The crew went for the elegant wooden look and went for the style that would most closely resemble what Frank Underwood would buy.

Integrated Water Tank

With the special integrated Water Tank you can easily do all your rowing training in a natural way. You can adjust the resistance of the water in the tank yourself, would you like an extra tough workout? Then you can top up the water. The faster you row, the harder your workout will be.

High-quality polycarbonate tank

The tank of the WaterRower is made of transparent polycarbonate, which not only makes the rower look even more beautiful, but also makes the tank more durable and resistant to temperature fluctuations. To keep the water in the tank clean, a little maintenance is needed every now and then. Fortunately, this maintenance is very minimal, you only need to put one tablet in the water tank every 3 months. This way you keep the tank nice and clean of limescale and any deposits.

Adjust the training intensity by easily adjusting the water level

The integrated water tank gives you the option to adjust its contents yourself. Are you just starting to train? Then a lighter rowing position will be desirable. Or maybe you are already an advanced athlete, you can add more water to the tank for an extra challenging workout.

The great thing about the WaterRower rowing machines is that they are very quiet. The sound of the water is often experienced as soothing

The unique WaterFlyWheel design in the tank uses a specially shaped paddle to cup the moving water. This reduces slippage and creates an unparalleled rowing experience.

One of the advantages of training with water resistance is that there are no shocks that can occur with air or magnetic rowing machines and can be experienced as unpleasant. With a WaterRower you only have even rowing strokes and even loads that create a low impact on your weights.

Keep track of your data with the S4 Monitor

The existing S4 monitor from WaterRower gives you insight into, among other things, the number of strokes per minute, your heart rate, your rowed time and zones in which you can train if you want to lose weight, for example. This way you always have a good view of the most important training dates.

A comfortable seat during your training

The WaterRowers are equipped with an ergonomic seat that relieves your tailbone. In addition, the seat moves easily and almost silently on the double rails. Your body weight is evenly distributed over the rails.

Special footrests for a realistic rowing position

The footrest is specially designed for maximum flexibility so that you are always in a perfect rowing position. This means you always have a good position for optimal power transmission. Would you like to adjust the position of the footrests? This is possible because they are individually adjustable in height. There are also special foot straps available. These foot straps ensure that your feet cannot fall off the footrest during your workout.

Equipped with anti-slip to protect your floor and ensure a stable position

The robust studs / feet are made of high-quality rubber, which provides extra protection for your floor and the rubber feet also ensure that the Oak WaterRower remains firmly in place and does not shift.

Load capacity and dimensions of the Oak WaterRower

The WaterRower rowing machine can handle a user weight of up to 180kg due to its super strong construction. If you weigh less than 180kg, it is highly recommended and this rower is a very nice addition to your home.

When installed, the dimensions of the Oak WaterRower (LxWxH) are 210x56x53cm. When you store the rower you can place it vertically. The size is then (LxWxH) 56x53x210cm.

WaterRower maintenance tips for the rowing machine

To keep the WaterRower in top condition, just like yourself, the rower needs a little maintenance every now and then.

Check the water in the tank regularly

You can fill the tank with regular tap water. The active substances in the water slowly disappear under the influence of UV radiation, which is why it is important to prevent algae formation. Therefore, add één chlorine tablet to the water once every 3 months. You can also choose to change the water every 3 months, but this is a little more work than using a chlorine tablet. Do not use pure chlorine (bleach) because you can irreparably damage the tank!

The tank is basically maintenance-free. If algae does form (e.g. because no chlorine tablets have been added), you can rinse the tank with warm water and a little bit of vinegar.

Keep the rowing machine dust-free

It is important to keep the coupling and tires as free of dust as possible. You can (carefully) use your vacuum cleaner for this. In addition, it is also important to keep the surface of the rails dust-free to prevent damage to the wheels. You can use a damp cloth for this.
