If you’ve been dragging your feet this January, you still have a few more days to get your New Year’s fitness goals in gear. Until Jan. 30, our team secured an exclusive deal with one of our favorite at-home rowing machine brands, Hydrow. The Pro model is an additional $125 off with code CNNPRO, making the combined savings more than $600. We named it one of the best luxury gifts for 2025, which can come in handy if you’re looking to splurge on your loved one this Valentine’s Day.
During your workout, you can pick a destination row or follow Olympians on the upgraded 22-inch display. This machine has Bluetooth and heart rate monitors for immersive fitness tracking, plus an ergonomic design that will easily fit into your current setup.
We tested the Hydrow Rower when it first came out. Since adding a Core and Wave to its collection, it was rebranded to the Hydrow Pro. Rowing has become a preferred workout method for those seeking a full-body and lower-impact workout. Once receiving the machine, it’s suggested that you purchase a $44-per-month membership after completing the complimentary 30-day trial. You’ll have access to a community of other users, live athlete-led workouts and different types of training, like yoga for your active recovery days.
Our reviewer felt motivated by the live stream of outdoor rowing workouts and thought it was easy to follow along and mimic the pro’s movements. Set up was also a breeze since they sent a team of professionals to your home to unbox and assemble the rower. After plugging it in and connecting to Wi-Fi, you’re ready to start rowing. Its large interface, “virtually silent” strokes and ergonomic design made hopping on and off the machine seamless.
Why this Hydrow deal is worth shopping
When combining our previous exclusive with the brand’s current promotion back in November, the Black Friday fitness deal came in at $1,695. Our current discount allows you to save an additional $125, making it a great buy for those considering upgrading their home gyms or snagging a companion for their Peloton bike.
