Taurus RX7

From the jury's assessment

The Taurus brand convinces with an exceptionally robust rowing machine: the RX7 model sets new standards – with regard to design, ease of use and ergonomics as well. The machine is of particular interest to people whose movement is restricted. The rowing machine at a glance:

• high own weight, withstands intensive loads
• maximum user weight: 130 kilograms
• seat height: 48 centimetres, making getting on and off comfortable
• optimum power transmission through a stable frame
• refined look thanks to a matt black housing
• sporting design, not least through details set off in colour
• 26 training programmes can be set
• built-in receiver in the training computer: wireless measurement of heart rate via a chest strap
• hybrid resistance simulates rowing on water
• folding function: the machine is easy to stow away
