Out of the box this is easy to put together and it folds up really well to save space. The seat moves smoothly and there's a simple screen to give you details such as calories, distance and 'difficulty level'Using it is really simple and although it has 32 levels there's not much difference between the small steps. As mentioned before use is really smooth and it'll give you a good workout.You can connect it up to certain fitness apps through bluetooth to keep your rowing data.Overall, a very good home rowing machine.

JLL300 Rowing machine is a very nice piece of kit. This is worth every single penny, I found it really easy to set up and use, there was supposed to be a video you could watch but every time I searched I found I could only access on for the 200 not the 300, but honestly the instructions were self-explanatory, I think its because they fit it together in the factory and then pull most of it apart so the bolts and screws all come in the right places already. As a rowing machine its really handy, the resistance is easy to set up and use, I really like that you can set your phone or kindle on the display and row and read or watch at ease. Its super easy to stand up and keep in the corner so you don’t trip over it, if you are looking for a rower then seriously consider this one as its fantastic. Also I am on the larger side, and I don't have any issues with this being unstable or wobbly no matter how much I power through.

Easy enough to put together does exactly what I wanted and a good value for money

This rowing machine comes in 5 parts. These are easy to fit together with all the screws needed in place, so you have to take the off before assembly. The two legs attached with ease, and the seat went on with ease. However putting the two beams into one another was hard, as I couldn’t get them to align and be able to push them in. When I turned the device vertically the process became very simple. So I tied up the seat so it did not slip down and held the two parts together and used all my weight to pull down and it went on with no issues. One other thing to look out for is the metal and rubber seat stop. I first attempted to push this from the bottom, but the screw holes wouldn’t meet up. So took it off and pushed from the top and everything fit perfectly. The device comes with an EU power supply with a cheap adapter and a cable that is too short. But it comes with all screwdrivers and spanners you need. Plus it comes with a heart monitor on a strap that fits around your chest, which I didn’t use as I have a watch that does all this for me. The device connects via Bluetooth to my iPad and I used the free iConsole+ app. When you connected to the app the controls on the device switch off and you control all setting via the app. There are a number of programs to use on the app, plus you can create an account for free AI Training and circuited training etc. this machine is very well built and I think would last a lifetime. Plus you can store it upright, where it take you very little space. All the parts are of high quality and fit together well. The only downside I see is the EU power supply and the very short cable length.

- Review for JLL® R300 Luxury Home Rowing Machine, 2024 Model, Providing a premium cardio workout with 32 levels of electro-magnetic resistance, 9 readout monitor with app connectivity, 12-Month Warranty || Price: £279.99 (at time of ordering) -This is a great rowing machine, definitely near the top in the entry-level professional range. Are there better ones? Yes absolutely, but not without paying significantly more.A friend had been looking at buying a rower for a while, and done a tonne of research. His dream was a Concept2, which was well beyond his price range. When this arrived he gave it a whirl and was blown away. According to him JLL is a rising manufacturer, producing quality machines at an accessible price point. The 'Eufy' of gym equipment if you will. The next day he ended up buying one for himself.It's comfortable and easy to use, with a heart monitor included. Being magnetic it feels a bit different from the ones I'd used before at the gym, but you get used to that relatively quickly. It has 32 difficulty levels, though the first 20 are pretty tepid - and I'm about as weak as you can get. It could definitely lose the bottom levels and go a bit further up. I think this is perfect, but are taller you may want a slightly bigger machine. The weight limit is 100kg.Setup wasn't quite as quick & easy as I'd hoped, though I don't know what I actually expected. You do have to essentially build the thing. It's not hard, but give yourself a good 45 mins or so to do it. They pre-build them and test before shipping, which sounds great, but it does bring some unnecessary challenges. Half the screws are already in, some have fallen out and are rolling around the dark corners of the very large box, and worst of all, you don't know which ones. It's not hard to figure out, but does cause some anxiety that something crucial may be missing!TLDR: This is a solid piece of kit that's well made to a high standard. It's big, but smaller than average and very easy to store. It looks polished and professional and runs like a dream. Has done wonders for my fitness routine, I have no excuse now! Highly recommended.
