I might be the target market for this.
I have a Concept 2 at a house I go to a couple times a year for up to a month each time. My normal cardio is a standard treadmill at the gym, and I bought the C2 because a serious treadmill wouldn’t work at that location.
It has been really hard to get into the rowing thing. I’ve never done crew so there’s no external context for me. I find it’s a great way to get the heart rate up in a short time, but totally lacks the zone-out meditative quality of the treadmill.
If there were a rowing machine that had some built in motivator that would make me go use it every day for more than a few minutes at a time, and it shipped worldwide, I’d seriously consider it for my next country place.
My motivation problems notwithstanding, I will say I think the Concept 2 is a great machine and absolutely feels like it’s worth the price. The fact I’d find the same machine in lots of gyms would be a plus if I could get over the hump. So fitness-center ubiquity should also be a goal I think.

The experience the content provides is what keeps our customers getting back on the machine every day and why we took the direction we did with Aviron. Thanks for sharing your experience.
