About Concept2 Concept2 began in 1976 in the back of a bread truck when Dick and Pete Dreissigacker, fresh from Olympic training, started making composite racing oars. Concept2 oars have since gone on to become the oar of choice among the world's rowers, and innovations continue right to the present-day. In 1981, Dick and Pete created the Concept2 Indoor Rower, which swiftly became the best-selling rowing machine in the world. Now several models later, it’s used every day by Olympic athletes, cardiac rehab patients, individuals at home and every calibre of rower in-between. We've grown since those early days and our product line now includes oars, the indoor rower, the SkiErg and the BikeErg. Though we’re much larger, we remain dedicated to our philosophy of providing the most innovative products and programmes to our customers. By selling direct, Concept2 eliminates the middleman so that we can provide our customers with the best value. Rowing is our reason for being, and every machine and oar we produce comes from a background of over thirty-five years of excellence. Our primary goal is to promote and encourage the growth of rowing, both indoors and outdoors. We believe that rowing is a lifelong activity, accessible to all.

Quality products, outstanding service
I ordered a BikeErg back in Sept 2020 but due to Covid lockdowns affecting production and exceptional demands my only option was to join a waiting list, which I had no problem in doing as I had fully expected delays. I received an email every week updating my status on the list and then earlier this month I hit the top of the list and I could place my order. I was emailed a private link to the shop and placed my order. Due to the pandemic the delivery was also a little longer than expected but no money was charged to my credit card until the product was actually dispatched. It arrived today (27Jan) and I was immediately impressed by how well the product was packed. As I unpacked the contents I could easily tell the construction was of a high quality. Even the fixings and provided tools were very good quality.
Assembly was really simple, I managed it in a space only slightly bigger than the assembled bike itself.
Connecting to my pc (I used an ANT dongle), the online log book, my phone, strava and zwift was also very simple and in no time at all I was on my first exercise routine.
I am absolutely delighted with my BikeErg and would have no problem recommending Concept2 and their products to anyone. The delivery company they used, ArrowXL, were also superb.
Great company and products
Great company to deal with and excellent product.
Was looking to buying a rower back in sept 2020. Due to events of 2020 my option was to join a concept2 waiting list. I was told how many weeks it would be and I would be sent a personal link when rowing machine was available. No money was taken when I was added to waiting list. Each week I was sent a status update by concept2 and early December I was provided the personal link to purchase item. Delivery was smooth and on time and product is excellent. Really great people to deal with.
Brilliant rower
The Concept 2 is hands down the best piece of cardio equipment. Fantastic build quality, full body workout, easy to split in half for storage. Lots of support from Concept 2 on their website. I use mine along with kettlebells at home and I am improving my fitness daily. Just buy one, you will not be dissapointed.
Excellent Piece of Kit - All major gyms have these
The Concept 2 Rower is what most professional rowers use for training off water, and the only rower that you will find in any decent gym. Provides an excellent all body workout and is low impact compared to say jogging. A brilliant piece of kit, well built and will last for years.
Excellent company
Just received my new concept 2 after a long wait due to Covid-19. They have been brilliant with their new stock updates and faultless with their service. I just hope people wait and don’t buy erg’s at an inflated price on gumtree!
Concept2 Model E rowing machine is fantastic!
We recently purchased a Concept2 Model E rowing machine. I have to say, it is incredible. Since our country is on lockdown, we couldn't go to the gym. This rowing machine is fantastic. I highly recommend it.
Bad Delivery Service
UPDATE: Jake has sorted out the issue and now a happy customer. Thank you
Ordered the bike via Argos. Concept 2 arranged the delivery through Tuffnells which was a big mistake.
The driver refused to carry the bike up to the address on the order and insisted he would leave it in the hallway unless he didn't get help. My partner who has a broken toe was then forced to assist the lazy driver to carry the bike with him. Now if we were receiving a discount to carry our own parcel then I would understand but this service is terrible, all concept 2 machines should be a 2 man delivery.
Arrow Global was better at delivering our Concept 2 rower even though they have terrible reviews.
Advice: If Concept 2 arrange delivery with Tuffnells for your purchase then ask them to pay you for it as you'll be doing Tuffnells job.

Excellent service and support
Ordered a new monitor at the weekend and delivered quicker than expected, great service as usual. Also asked some questions about the storage and usage of the monitor that were answered quickly by the Concept2 support team. Excellent service and support as usual.
Delivery failed.
I bought the Model D rowing machine based on many 5-star online reviews. I bought directly from Concept2. The very heavy (31kgs) package was delivered by Tuffnells who are a disaster and the worst courier service I have ever encountered. I saw the delivery driver arrive and expected him to bring the package up the communal open stairway to my second floor flat (already knowing that Tuffnells are not insured for their drivers to actually enter my property). He dumped the package onto the hard concrete floor at the entrance to the block. This burst open the package and broke up much of the expanded polystyrene surrounding the rower. The driver was suposed to get my signature for the goods which have a value of £872 but there was no delivery note and the tracking website showed that he had signed for the parcel himself (which is illegal). I could not take the parcel upstairs and my two neighbours (who are 82 and 91 years old and in poor health) could not assist. As I have not signed for the parcel it is still the property of Concept2 and in the care of the courier company Tuffnells. In signing for it the driver has in effect stolen the parcel.
I have now seen CCTV footage from two different cameras. The picture quality is good enough to show that the driver had already removed the delivery note from the plastic envelope on the oustside of the package so clearly had no intention of knocking on my door. The footage shows him literally throwing the package from shoulder height onto the hard floor and then running to his vehicle and driving off very quickly. This footage and order and delivery details have now been passed on to Lewisham Police Station since the package has disappeared overnight.
Concept2 should change the way it packs high-value heavy items (the cardboard box is very flimsy) and also find a more responsible courier to make its deliveries. I have been in contact with both Concept2 and Tuffnells but no action has yet been taken.
Quality product and good aftersale care.
Bought a new indoor rower from them and it was delivered promptly.
It was slightly damaged on receipt and was replaced immediately.
5 star quality product, 5 star customer service
Bought my Concept2 model D indoor rower 5 years ago. With time the chain needed replacing, and some of the varnish came off etc. A quick email to customer services, and promptly received the required parts with detailed instructions (usually without a charge, even after 4 years!). The quality of the rower is exceptional and it has been a joy every time I have used it. I wish more companies would put such effort into perfecting their service!
