King Smith Fitness, a company based in Hong Kong, has designed and engineered an innovative rowing machine that can quickly and easily be folded into a compact cubical form that can be transported with no hassle whatsoever.
Dubbed the 'WR1,' this particular rowing machine is equipped with a trio of hinged areas that can be folded in order to create a cube that measures in at only 72 x 50 x 58 cm. What's more, the cube can be transported on its rubber wheels so that it can be stashed under a desk, situated in the corner of a room or packed into a car for transportation.
The rowing machine itself is suitable high-tech and is capable of generating up to 66 pounds of resistance, while a companion app displays data such as strokes, time, calories and distance.
Currently the subject of a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo, the 'WR1' rowing machine can be reserved for a pledge of $499.
