Nemo III
Aus effektivem Ganzkörpertraining wird ein noch einzigartigeres Heim-Trainingserlebnis. Das Nemo III verbindet das unglaublich naturnahe Rudererlebnis mit kraftvoller, sportwissenschaftliche
“Benutzte das Gerät seit 2 Wochen.
Macht ein sehr guten Eindruck.
Der Sitz könnte etwas mehr halt bieten.
Ansonsten bin ich sehr zufrieden.
Der Widerstand ist vollkommen ok.”
“Delivery went smooth, except for the fact that rear end cap (97) wasn't delivered in the package (it was delivered additionally) and that the plastic oil's bottle got broken and has spilled all over in the package, destroying the user manual.
So I already did ~100 km on the rower, it's probably not the best rower ever, but for the money it is quite a bargain. Floor mat is also of a nice quality and I'm thankful that was included for free when I bought the whole package.
There are certain issues with the heart rate chest monitor - the rower computer cannot catch its signal if you have placed your phone (Samsung S20+) on its holder (may be some interference or just a weak transmitter/receiver) so had to buy a separate phone holder (it's even better because I was able to place it at eyes' height). Note that it may still not be able to catch a good signal if the left battery pair (facing the computer) is not removed (it works good enough with just 2 batteries - it says they are included, but they aren't). With all technicalities fixed though, I still reckon that it's not measuring correctly the heart rate - it says that I have almost a constant heart rate of 190-200 bpm, which is not confirmed by my Samsung Galaxy Watch 4.
I'm using it primarily with Kinomap app for Android (long and regularly extended trial periods) and connected Strava to it, and Strava can be connected to Samsung Health app. Be careful with Strava and set your time zone correctly in the Strava web portal for your profile, otherwise it can show your workouts in weird times of the day and same will be transferred in Samsung Health app (syncing between Strava and Samsung Health is a bit slow, it can take hours before having it synced up).
So far so good, there are a lot of videos and competitions in Kinomap along with coaching videos and whole playlists. When competing make sure to select the results only for Skandika, but even then you cannot be sure who's using what level of water resistance (I'm using level 7, not easy, not super hard).
I can say it's a bargain, though the package may have been split in two packages to have them fitted in smaller car like mine and for easier transport in general.”
