Decent rowing machine

I'd hoped to have sourced one by now, but alas, people have been a bit sketchy in the way ads have been phrased. Oh well........
Essentially I'm after something that will take a large chap throwing all he can muster at it. I would like a decent brand so something along the lines of Tunturi, Bremshey, Nordic Track etc
Cash waiting or happy to do a deal on other stuff (car related)
What do you have?

Thank you
so much.
I'm finding my own fitness difficult enough to take seriously without you adding impetus to that same point

If the rowing machines are anything like the running machines, I can recommend the Nordic Track!
I take it you've looked at Ebay? I did when looking for a running machine, and in the end just bought new as the warranty was worth the little bit extra. Motor is garanteed for 10 years!

You dont HAVE to listen to Bronski beat when you go on it, and as for tea, you'd only get a bloody Mcdonalds on the way home anyway!

think i've got a york r700 platinium rower sitting in the loft. not used it since my son was born due to him taking the spare room. Happy to lend it to you til you find the one you're looking for.

That's very kind Ian, thank you
If it's only sat in the loft, why not work out a price that you might want to sell it? I think I may well prefer to buy something outright (rather than borrow one) just in case I break it!
