 Love this machine!Aug 30, 2010
Just received my Stamina 1050 rower. Nice, sturdy product for the price, and assembly was a snap. I am a 5'4 female, and the fit is fine for me. The key to keeping your feet on the pads is to wear comfy running/walking shoes with a good thick base. Strap the velcro snugly and you're set for a good workout with virtually no slips. I couldn't believe how quickly I got to target heart rate, especially after choosing a more resistant setting. I recommend this product highly for a quality, low-impact, full-body workout in half the time of other routines. Thanks, Stamina!

It does the job it's supposed to.Aug 18, 2010
I bought the Stamina Body Trac to help in my recovery from back surgery. It arrived a day earlier then promised (that was nice), it was very easy to setup (think Christmas with an 8 y/o's toys!). I have been using it 4 days a week since it arrived. I think it's a good workout and well worth the time and money. I'm one of those people that hates the gym and this is a fantastic alternative.

Good for the moneyAug 16, 2010
I was afraid about reliability after reading some reviews, but did not have $900 for a concept2. I figure, even if I pay $30 for a new piston every 6 months, I am still ahead. You get what you paid for, at $150 you get a decent machine, the frame looks sturdy, the monitor is just a timer, do not expect much from it. The seat squeaks and I can see why people complain about the foot rest, but with a little bit of creativity it can be solved. It is not a machine for people less than 5'6" or 5'7". I have been using it and I am happy with what I got, my heart rate gets to the level I want and I work my upper body, my main goal. Some people expect a Cadillac for $150, if you can live with some squeaking and can not afford more expensive machines, this is the one for you, I would recommend it.

Stamina Body Trac Glider 1050 rowing machineJul 31, 2010
This is a good device, quiet, does the job. For the money, its a good deal, I have a stationary bike,
and ride off road on a 29er single speed, a lot of out of the saddle, the stationary bike only does legs,
hips down. On that you spin, heart rate is easy to get up. Using both, you can do it all. I find the
stationary bike boring and painful. This I find I can get in a zone and do it longer.
This does the whole body, small of back, critical to me, and lower ab's, to strengthen back problems, it
does get the arms, legs, knees, its as if it just gets the standing out of the saddle part of a bike, and
that feeling of a pushup on a road type bar, and holding it when pedaling, it does not get the legs like
a good spin, but it gets everything else except tension against balance on a rough trail. I am talking about
how the body feels, not the motion. Balance is a big thing, anything stationary is not as good, but this is
good enough. It does get the lower ab's better than a bike.
I got it to get something of what off road does for me when weather is bad, it does that well. You have to
do it longer, at a higher tension for a good workout, but cardio is different, you want that, you have to
drop the tension setting and pull faster. I am more interested in a long, slow, against the current feel of the
rowing, (I have done rowing on rivers), solo canoe, where the heart rate maxes out about the time you are starting
to feel the burn, then a short sprint, and a cool down. So I set the tension to 8, it seems about right compared to
what I feel on a single speed. I cannot put in the same times yet, but I can see, it being very good to do on off days
to help the cyclings.
It surprised me. Its a pretty good machine for its cost. Its portable.
