WaterRower at Fitness Supply

WaterRower has been the standard-bearer for water-resistance rowing since 1988, when Yale-trained engineer and US National Rowing Team candidate John Duke invented the original WaterRower in Warren, Rhode Island. Duke's goal was to replicate the exact sound, feel, and physiological benefit of rowing on open water — and to build a rowing machine beautiful enough to belong in a living room, not just a gym. Every WaterRower still ships from that same Rhode Island workshop today.

At the heart of every WaterRower rowing machine is the patented WaterFlywheel: a paddle spinning in a sealed water tank that generates resistance proportional to effort, delivering the same natural catch, drive, and release you'd feel on the water. From the Classic Series in oak, walnut, and cherry to the HYBRID and CityRow Connect rowers and the performance-focused M1 and S1 models, WaterRower machines are used in health clubs, luxury hotels, boutique studios, and homes worldwide.
