Solid & Sturdy:
I purchased this rower 1 month ago. It arrived within a matter of days, unharmed and a bit heavy. Assembly wasn't too difficult. The machine in comfortable, sturdy, and well-built.

Don't know what the bid deal is, you can't really expect to look straight down and see clearly with that type of display, so don't let it... more info
