How Magnetic Resistance Works on a Rower
A magnetic rower slows the flywheel with a magnetic field instead of a rubbing pad, and you pick the level that suits the session. Sunny describes the rows as smooth and silent, with virtually no maintenance.
What muscles does a rowing machine work? The pivoting foot pedals load your quads on each push, and the pull works your back and arms. Sunny calls it a low-impact, full-body workout. If you are still comparing styles, browse more rowing machines.

Who Should Buy It and Who Should Skip It
Buy it if you want a quiet, low-impact rower that folds away between sessions.
Best for:
- Home rowers who want low-impact cardio
- Small homes that need a fold-up rower
- Households that want a quiet machine
Not a fit if:
- You weigh more than the listed user limit
- You want it for a commercial gym or a shared apartment, condo or HOA facility
- You need a rower with an app or touchscreen
This rower is for home use only, and commercial or shared-facility use voids Sunny's warranty.
The listing does not state an app connection or touchscreen, so plan around the built-in monitor. Call 423-458-2453 for a delivery quote to your address before you add the rower to your cart.
