It’s foldable and has a budget-friendly price tag at its usual price, but it’s now even better value with a $101 saving in this early Black Friday deal.

Magnetic rowing machines feel very different to air or water models as the resistance is constant and doesn’t build through your stroke. This can feel a little strange at first but you soon get used to it.
The ProForm 750R requires some assembly and you’ll need an extra pair of hands to help with the build. When not in use, it folds up nicely with a smooth action unlike the more clunky transitions of some other budget-orientated rowers.
While the rower comes with a console showing basic data such as calories burned, rowing distance and speed (split/500m), session time, and strokes per minute, there’s no online connectivity or screen. There is Bluetooth syncing to a heart rate monitor (you’ll need to buy one separately) though and you can slot in your own tablet above the console.
Included in the price is a one-month subscription to ProForm’s iFit online training facility which includes a wide range of video workouts with some of them led by Olympic athletes.
Key features: 24 levels of magnetic resistance, foldable design, Bluetooth HRM connectivity, dimensions 422”W x 86.5”D x 45.5”H, weight 116 lb, user weight limit 250 lb.
Price history: The ProForm 750R cost $999 at launch, but is now priced at $699 at retailers not running deals on the rower. Best Buy has almost matched the current Walmart $598 deal price, but not quite.
Price comparison: Best Buy: $598.99 | Lowe’s: $699 | Dick’s Sporting Goods: $699
Reviews consensus: Rated as our best value rowing machine, we gave it four out of five stars in our review. The 750R has picked up mostly identical scores where reviewed, with testers being impressed by its quiet magnetic action, foldable action, and the model being an affordable route into guided rowing.
