Tousains CR63 2-in-1 Cable Rowing Machine (Black, 150kg Capacity)

Will this machine fit in my small UK flat with low ceilings?

Yes, the CR63 is specifically designed for UK homes. At 160cm tall, it fits comfortably under standard 7ft (213cm) ceilings with 53cm of headroom for overhead exercises. When folded, it occupies just 2.92 sq ft - about the size of a suitcase. You can store it behind doors, against walls, or in wardrobes. The built-in wheels make moving it from storage to workout area effortless.

Can I use my existing dumbbells and weight plates with this machine?

Absolutely. The CR63 is compatible with over 90% of dumbbells, barbells and Olympic weight plates on the market. It accepts both 1" and 2" diameter holes, so your existing equipment will likely work. Unlike many competitors that only accept one dumbbell, this machine can hold two simultaneously, giving you up to 150kg of customisable resistance using weights you already own.

How quiet is this machine for early morning workouts?

The CR63 features a whisper-quiet 2:1 smooth pulley system that operates silently. There's no metal clanking or loud mechanical noise that would disturb neighbours or family members. Many users specifically choose this machine for early morning or late evening workouts in terraced houses and flats because it won't cause complaints from adjacent properties.

Is assembly difficult and how long does it take?

Assembly is straightforward and takes about 30 minutes. The machine arrives 90% pre-assembled with all screws already positioned where they need to be. Users consistently rate it as one of the easiest pieces of gym equipment they've assembled. Clear instructions are included, plus you get access to the free Tousains app with guided setup assistance.

What exercises can I perform with this machine?

You can target all six major muscle groups with over 20 different exercises. These include lat pulldowns, seated rows, chest flies, tricep extensions, bicep curls, leg extensions and full-body rowing movements. The dual-mode system lets you switch between strength training with heavy weights and cardio rowing workouts. A free 7-day training plan is included to get you started.

How stable is the machine during heavy lifting?

The carbon steel frame is engineered for stability and tested for over 100,000 repetitions. The wide base and low centre of gravity prevent tipping during intense workouts. The locking system secures the cable path (not the plates themselves) so there's zero risk of weights falling during overhead exercises. Users report excellent stability even when loading the full 150kg capacity.

Can I store this machine vertically to save space?

Yes, the CR63 is designed for vertical storage. You can stand it upright like a bookshelf against any wall. The compact folded dimensions (21.5cm deep × 31.5cm wide × 160cm high) mean it takes up minimal floor space. The built-in wheels let you roll it into position easily, making daily setup and storage practical for small living spaces.

What's included in the package and is there a warranty?

The package includes the cable machine, multiple attachments for different exercises and a comprehensive manual. You also get free access to the Tousains app with guided workouts and a 7-day training plan. The machine comes with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects and normal wear issues, giving you peace of mind for your investment.
