Attractive and highly functional, the WaterRower Natural Rowing Machine in Ash Wood with S4 Monitor is designed to emulate the dynamics of a boat moving moving through water for an authentic rowing experience.

The WaterRower Natural Rowing Machine’s water flywheel utilizes 2 paddles in an enclosed water tank that provides self-regulated resistance that’s ultra smooth and quiet.

You are in total control of your workout as the resistance works on the premise that as you paddle faster, the more the drag is increased for a higher intensity workout or paddle slower for a less intensive workout.

As you row with the WaterRower Natural, you can hear a slight swishing sound similar to real water rowing which gives a soothing and relaxing feel.

WaterRower Natural with recoil belt & pulleys, countoured seat with 4 corner wheels that glide on dual rails
WaterRower Natural with
recoil belt & pulleys,
countoured seat with 4 corner
wheels that glide on dual rails
With no motor and utilizing a recoil belt and pulleys that don’t require regular oiling or cleaning like traditional rowing machines, the WaterRower Natural is designed to be very low maintenance.

For comfort and increased stability, the WaterRower Natural features a contoured seat with 4 corner wheels that glide smoothly along dual rails.

The WaterRower Natural’s frame is hand-crafted from solid Ash hardwood which is chosen for its ability to absorb sound and vibration.  Environmentally-friendly, the wood is sourced from replenished forests.  The frame is finished in honey oak stain and Danish Oil to give it its attractive deep lustre color.

To help save space when not in use, the WaterRower Natural can be flipped upright without having to empty the water out of the tank.  It also features transport wheels for easy relocation.

WaterRower S4 Monitor, with 6 information & program windows, 6 Quick Selection buttons, 3 Navigation buttons
WaterRower S4 Monitor
To help keep you motivated, the WaterRower Natural comes with an S4 Performance Monitor with which you can keep track of your workout stats.

The S4 Monitor features six information and program windows, along with six Quick Selection buttons and 3 Navigation buttons.  Performance stats displayed include distance, time, intensity, stroke rate, zone bar, and heart-rate (compatible with optional heart-rate chest strap and receiver).

As you would expect with a rowing machine of this quality, the WaterRower Natural comes with a generous manufacturer’s warranty that’s upgradable to 5 years on frame and 3 years on components upon completion of registration.




Fitness tip:  Exercising on a Rowing Machine for just 30 minutes could burn between 262-449 calories for women or 310-531 calories for men, depending on the intensity of the rowing.


Let’s take a look at the features and specifications in detail of the WaterRower Natural to help you decide if it’s the best indoor water rowing machine for you:
