I bought this 7 months ago - I chose this model over the C101 because at the time I weighed nearly 18 stone, and this had a higher weight rating. I now weigh 12 and a half stone, and while this feat isn't wholly down to the bike it has certainly played a central part.
Every day I use it for half an hour in the morning, and the same in the evening - the pulse sensor telling me how fast I should go to lose weight and not to push myself too hard.
It feels as good now as it did when I assembled it - and has been reliable - which is more than I can say for the V-fit rower I also bought which I've now replaced twice, and shall be ditching in favour of a concept2 when I've saved the money.
I couldn't be more pleased with this bike!
