    Toying with the idea of splashing out on a concept 2 power.

    I live in a three storey semi d , a new house, and am wondering if anyone has any experience of how noisy they might be a a home setting.

    I would have it on the top floor under a sloped roof, but am probably less worried about the fan noise and more worried about vibration noise to rooms underneath and even to next door.

    Very quiet. There's not gonna be much/any noise outside of the fan.

    The Concept 2 has a noise level of around 70DB if rowing hard, a similar 70DB noise is a vacuum cleaner. A water rower would be quieter, around 60DB (log scale so 60DB is half the noise of 70DB)

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    Thanks.

    Might be worth a punt. I found older threads regarding price and availability and it looks like rowfit.ie come in at the same prices as Rogue if anyone is looking.

    Just see on rowfit.ie.ie they offer a Hire services might be worth a try if you can Hire a Concept 2 for few weeks to check prior to purchase

    I have thought about buying a Concept 2 previously but they are quite expensive where as hiring one for a month might be an option to see if I would commit to using.

    Apparently they are the best rower out there and better off in the long run than a cheaper rower ….
