According to reviewers, it is also easy to assemble and has a smooth, quiet ride.

Avari Conversion II Rower and Recumbent Bike

 Unlike other rowers on this list, this model has a full, adjustable seat and doubles as a recumbent bike. The rower has eight levels of magnetic resistance and even features heart rate monitors on the handles. For rowing, you’ll use the closer footplates and allow the seat to slide forward and back. For cycling, simply lock the seat in place, and use the front set of moving pedals. The LCD tracks your stats for both types of workouts including speed, distance, time, odometer, heart rate, and calories.
