2 - Not What the Doctor Ordered
I really wanted to like the Tunturi R60 because the Concept2 rower is such a cliche. On paper, the R60 seemed to offer a lot: dual track seat, compact folding design, quiet electromagnetic resistance, and a bit of Scandinavian panache. In reality, the plastic membranes covering the R60's control buttons on the handle and the computer housing cracked from repeated use, its slippery seat did not conform to my posterior, its non-adjustable foot rests were uncomfortable and caused my gym shoes to squeak relentlessly, and its nylon belt connecting the handle to the flywheel made annoying noises as it abraded against the flywheel housing. To my chagrin, I wound up owning a Concept2 Model D...which costs far less than the R60 and, in my estimation, works far better. Buyer beware.
4 - Tunturi R60 good overall
This is a very good machine, very quiet, I think the seat is a bit small an a little hard, but is a very good rowing machine. The controls tha are at the rowing pole did not work neither the polar heart rate system.
