The best rowing machine deals on Amazon right now: Save up to 44%

It's hard to beat a rowing machine when it comes to getting a full-body strength and cardio workout all in one session on one piece of equipment. Better yet, you're seated the entire time, so rowing is a great low-impact option for anyone who needs to be kinder to their joints. The only downside is that rowers tend to be pricey compared to other home gym equipment.

That's why the best move is to watch and wait for the right deal so you can snag a premium rowing machine without paying a premium to get it. And now is precisely that moment, with Amazon offering up deep discounts on top-rated rowing machines like this Hydrow, which can you get for $300 off, or this Fitness Reality, which is on sale for over 40% off.

With so many great deals, there's bound to be a rowing machine that fits your budget (and your home gym space). Just remember to add a pair of sweat-proof headphones to your cart, too, because these rowers will have you working up a serious sweat.

If you're looking for a top-of-the-line machine, it doesn't get much better than the Hydrow. The immersive rowing machine features a patented electromagnetic drag mechanism designed to mimic the actual feel of rowing in the water.

Meanwhile, a 22-inch HD display with built-in speakers whisks you away to the Fjords of Norway, the glaciers off the coast of Alaska, or the tranquil yet mysterious Loch Ness. With more 4,000 immersive workout videos to choose from, your daily workout routine will never feel routine.

If you love the idea of having a rowing machine at home but you don't love the idea of a single piece of equipment dominating the whole room, the Fitness Reality rowing machine is for you. The foldable design and transportation wheels make it easy to tuck into a corner in between workouts.

When it's time to break a sweat, unfold and choose from 10 preset workouts or create your own custom program to follow.

Instead of the front-facing handle attached to a cord, the Fitness Reality features two independent handles that move more like actual paddles. So you get the full range of motion, activating the full range of muscles that would be activated if you were rowing an actual boat.

This budget-friendly rowing machine packs a surprising number of premium features, including Bluetooth connectivity so you can automatically log your workouts on the Merach app.

As for the machine itself, you get 16 levels of resistance, non-slip pedals, and a whisper-quiet design that won't bother your family or your downstairs neighbors.

Be sure to apply the $120 Amazon coupon before checkout to get the price.
