 probably a waste of money April 17, 2007

I hate to come down on this rower so hard, but it just broke at the most inopportune time. I have had it for 2 years. It has been ok, but it has neither been as smooth, or quiet as I expected it to be based on its product description and maybe other reviews. I took it apart today to see why it stopped working (the nylon strap wouldn't retract anymore). Inside, there's a coiled spring that winds the strap after each pull. This spring broke, and to this point, I'm having a difficult time finding out if it's a replaceable part. Even if it is, i don't know if i'll be able to get it back together. I wanted to get a more expensive rower when i bought this one, but just didn't want to spend the money, now I'm regretting not doing that.
 Good deal for price October 3, 2005

We were looking for a reasonably priced rowing machine and the MR 900 was one of the few reviewed. It has a tension adjustment knob at the base, so that you can increase your workout. The seat slides easily and the handlebar pulls back fine. As a smaller woman, I find the footpedal position a bit awkward and despite the velcro strip, I can't quite get the right fit. The other review that I saw for this machine also mentioned that the footpads were not as well placed as they might be. Phoenix could really improve their machine by allowing some adjustment in height and better width grip on this feature. The display is fine, but the calorie count seems off--either that or I'm just not working as hard as I think I am. I don't think it accounts for the quickness with which you pull or your body weight and might just be taking into account the tension, time, and number of pulls. Overall, I'm really pleased. My stomach, legs, and arms get a nice workout. I guess the trick is to emphasize using your back with your stomach and legs vs. forearms, which I am still trying to get used to. If you are concerned with noise, the seat motion causes no noise, but the air on the pull definitely does. If you've got an iPod or mp3 player it won't matter, though.
