Designed for rowers and fitness enthusiasts seeking detailed training data and analysis, the Performance Ergometer is crafted in our six signature wood options. It features our patent-pending PowerPulley technology for precise performance monitoring, complemented by design enhancements that ensure an optimized training experience. BETTER DATA, BETTER PERFORMANCE - The WaterRower PowerPulley is an intelligent performance system designed to elevate indoor rowing measurement. Its patent-pending mechanism merges precision engineering with advanced electronics to deliver highly accurate performance insights. Each PowerPulley is individually calibrated for exceptional accuracy and transmits real-time data wirelessly via Bluetooth to the free WATERROWER Connect app on iOS and Android devices.
POWERPULLEY TECHNOLOGY - The PowerPulley
The PowerPulley system is integrated into the WaterRower’s forward riser, replacing the S4 Performance Monitor to deliver advanced performance tracking. Within the mechanism, a strain gauge and optical sensor precisely measure the force applied through each stroke. Each PowerPulley is individually calibrated to ensure exceptional accuracy, providing reliable real-time data for every training session.
Features:
- Performance Enhancements - The Performance Ergometer comes with XL-rails, a wider, easy-grip handle, and an integrated, folding tablet-holder arm - ideal for viewing your performance data in the subscription-free WATERROWER Connect app.
- Design Upgrade - The specially designed commercial footboard is built for increased durability, providing secure foot support during high-intensity rowing workouts.
- Phone & Tablet Arm - The built-in WaterRower Phone & Tablet Arm lets you view your device while rowing. When not in use, the Phone & Tablet Arm can be folded flat to store the Performance Ergometer on end.
- Space-saver - Upright Storage - As with all WaterRower models, when not in use, the Performance Ergometer can be stood upright for space-saving storage, occupying no more space than a chair. Rubber dolly wheels allow for easy maneuvering around the home or studio. The WaterRower’s center of gravity lies in its water tank, which enables you to lift it at the rail-end effortlessly. In any position, the water remains safe in the tank.
American Made Since 1988

Patent-Pending Technology - The WaterRower PowerPulley represents the next evolution in indoor rowing performance monitoring.

Each PowerPulley is individually calibrated to ensure exceptional measurement accuracy, transforming every stroke into meaningful, reliable performance data.
Clean Aesthetic
To preserve the WaterRower’s clean, minimal design, the Performance Ergometer is supplied without a built-in monitor. Simply use your own smartphone or tablet running the WaterRower Connect app to view and analyze your data. Your device is securely held in the integrated device arm, keeping it perfectly positioned for visibility and ease of use. This approach maintains the WaterRower’s iconic aesthetic while giving you the freedom to connect, train, and analyze performance.
Ergonomic Footboard
The ergonomic footboard comes with non-slip professional foot straps to ensure secure footing and unmatched comfort. Featuring a generous 43 cm wide grip handle, the WaterRower Performance erg prioritizes user comfort to optimize your rowing workout.
Performance Insights
Row Smarter
Designed for athletes and data-driven users. The PowerPulley integrated electronics precisely measure stroke length, force, and power output, offering detailed, real-time insights every session.
Intelligent Performance Measurement
At the heart of the PowerPulley, a strain gauge and finely tuned optical sensor analyses your rowing stroke. Integrated seamlessly into the WaterRower’s forward riser, it provides precise, real-time feedback. The resulting power curve visualizes how your effort is distributed throughout each stroke, helping you refine technique, build consistency, and truly optimize performance, not just track it.
WaterRower CONNECT
The PowerPulley connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to WaterRower Connect, our free companion app for iOS and Android. Access detailed performance metrics, review your training history and sync effortlessly with platforms including Strava and Apple Health. Join the WaterRower Connect community of more than 125,000 registered users worldwide to compete, compare, and train together through in-app rankings and racing.
The system is also compatible with a range of leading training apps, from our instructor-led platform CityRow Go to popular third-party rowing apps including Peloton and EXR.
Silent, Synchronized Seat Glide
Enjoy a near-silent and synchronized seat glide on the Performance ergometer’s solid wood rails. Eight polyurethane-coated, ball bearing rollers guarantee a smooth and durable performance. The ergonomically shaped seat cushion ensures optimal comfort as you row.
Unplugged Performance
Row Anywhere, Anytime
To preserve the WaterRower’s clean, minimal design, the Performance Ergometer is supplied without a built-in monitor. Use your own device running the WATERRROWER Connect app to view and analyse your data. Your device is securely held in the integrated device arm, keeping it perfectly positioned for visibility and ease of use.
