Review of the Stainless steel WaterRower S1 LoRise

The S1 WaterRowers (HiRise and LoRise) are the only waterrowers hand made in the UK. Being the most expensive models in the WaterRower range both the M1 LoRise and M1 HiRise are quite unique; not just as items of fitness equipment but as an objet d'art and without doubt a talking point amongst visitors and guests.

The angular design adorned with cut-out detailing puts the WaterRower S1 firmly in a class of its own and although it shares all the same operational components as the rest of the WaterRower range it has a very unique and I'd have to say, "masculine" appeal to it.  The S1 is without doubt a rowing machine for modernistic designer living with a styling and construction that will invoke the curiosity of all that lay eyes upon it.

HiRise or LoRise? this is a question we're often asked and my answer would come down to something a customer bought up when trying the waterrower in our shop. He informed me that he's had a hip operation and found the regular height WaterRowers were a shade too low for him to comfortable get down to whereas the HiRise rower didn't give any such problems so for most users the LoRise model is perfect but the more elderly user might want to look to the HiRise model if drawn towards the stainless steel S1 styling.

SmartRow Upgrade - When the WaterRower SmartRow was launched it was only available for wooden framed rowers but now it can also be fitted to the S1 stainless steel rowers simply by ordering the unit with an M1 fitting bracket* which adds a very small additional cost onto the SmartRow option (see available accessories)

Unlike the WaterRower M1 the side rails of the stainless steel S1 models are made from a small profile box section frame with a stainless steel in-fill ensuring structural rigidity with contemporary minimalistic lines.
