Overview of the Concept 2 Rowing Machine Model E – PM3 Console
The Concept2 Model E with PM3 Console is built for those who demand durability, comfort, and reliable performance in their indoor rowing experience. With a 20″ seat height—6 inches higher than the standard Model D—the Model E offers easier access for users with mobility needs, taller athletes, or anyone who prefers a more elevated position.
The PM3 monitor provides essential performance data including time, distance, stroke rate, and pace, making it easy to track progress and structure effective workouts. While simpler than newer models like the PM5, the PM3 still supports solid performance tracking and includes built-in workouts and games to keep training engaging.
With its welded steel frame, nickel-plated chain, and glossy, high-end finish, the Model E is built to withstand heavy use in home gyms, rehab settings, or commercial fitness facilities—while still offering the smooth, consistent rowing action Concept2 is known for.
