Rent Concept2?

I want to have a Concept2 in my room during the summer, but I don't want to have to buy one. Does anyone know if Concept2 or another service loans out Concept2 erg machines for rent?

Concept2 does not provide this service. On the other hand, C2 ergs have a spectacular resale value. I have seen a lightly used machine sell on eBay for full retail. If you bought one outright, you would probably be able to unload it at the end of the summer for not too much less than what you paid.

If you are concerned about cost, and you might want to keep the erg long-term, you might try and pick up a taken-care-of Model B. Even if it needs a few parts like a seat, rollers, or handle, C2 has very reasonable parts prices.
