Rower Machine with all the right stuff

Rower machines come in several different styles today. The stationary and the sliding seat rower machines are the most common two rower machines.

When looking into the different rower machines you will want to decide on what you want.
Options:
Quit Flywheel
Does it allow for cross training
Total body work out (The sliding seat style rower)
Rowing style (Sleek, fast, slow, or heavy boat)
Indoor or Outdoor
Monitors (tracking distance, speed, pace, calories)
Footprint size (Amount of room it will take up)
Weight Capacity (What the rower machine can hold on it)
Warranties (Frame and moving parts)
