Have you used the Concept 2? Wondering how it is different. I do not need it to fold up as space is not an issue, but this one sure is pretty

Concept 2 is supposed to be the "gold standard", so I'm wondering how this water one is different.

Ive had a lotnos success with my home gym. Here is what i have:
Treadmill
Rower
Poweblock adjustable weights
Rubber bands
Plyometric box
Ab roller
Punching bag
Bosu ball
Slides (for mountain climbers)
Bench
Wall chalkboard to creste my WOD

I absolutely get just a good workout at home as in a gym. I'll never fo back to angym membership. Plus i work FT, so it makes it so easy to get down to the basement in the early morning, shower down there, and come upstairs and help get the kids off.

Peloton!!!!

I’d like a treadmill but don’t think it’ll fit down the stairs to our basement. Any ideas for other useful equipment that’s not as big and expensive as a treadmill? Stationary bike, rowing machine or just free weights and YouTube? Other ideas?

I bought a rowing machine for DH - it is a great full body workout. The one I purchased has wheels on it so you can roll it away and stand it up in the corner, and it's very stable so it won't fall over.

Here's a pic of what it looks like when stored away in the corner, on-end.
