Our Verdict:
The Stamina Conversion II Recumbent Bike / Rower is an innovative and well-designed exercise machine that incorporates dual functions into its compact structure. The build is sturdy yet workout movement is quite fluid. It easily converts from a recumbent bike to a rowing machine with simple seat locking and unlocking. The bike and rower integration is a great combination, which provides all the necessary upper and lower body workouts. Having a dual function unit saves much in space and cost over having to purchase and set up two separate machines.
Multiple resistance levels offer varying degrees of exercise intensity for both the exercise starters and the fitness professional. You should notice an easy switch from using the rower to exercising via the bike function. We also found that the machine itself feels safe and comfortable to workout on. We were rather surprised to come across how light-weight the device is, considering how large the item is. You shouldn’t find it too difficult to maneuver it about if required. Although not quite gym quality, the Stamina Conversion II Recumbent Bike/Rower is definitely a standout as a two-in-one exercise machine with its versatility and affordability at just under $1000.
