It does look funky I'll grant you, but the Tunturi is a much better value with over £200 off.

It also has better options on it's "console", including strokes-per-minute and 500m split time, the latter being a useful benchmark to compare your performance with others.

It says the Reebok rower comes with a Polar heart monitor belt whereas the Tunturi doesn't - if you do get the Tunturi, make sure you get a belt.

It's very easy to get carried away on a rower and overstress yourself, to the extend that you end up skipping the next session and perhaps drop it altogether for a while, which is a shame, because you'll find just 10 minutes a night combined with sensible eating can make a real difference in no time at all.

Some good information about heart rate and rowing technique here;

Good luck!
