Easy to assemble with just 4 pieces and just as good and pretty much identical as the more expensive Wahoo version. Plenty of room to hold a laptop and slots for phone and tablets and spots for 2 water bottles or use one to hold snacks. Simple to adjust the height. Best investment for indoor cycling after a decent trainer.

Muy buena calidad, me hubiera gustado que se doblara más ya que ocupa mucho espacio pero en general esta excelente!

I honestly don't understand how cycling desks can be so expensive. This one would have cost me $275CAD if I hadn't sent it back which, yes, is much cheaper than the Wahoo one. But WHY.The arms don't fit the tray. I should have listened to the negative reviews. I can slide the tray on a couple of inches, but the buttons do not align with the cutouts made for them, and there is no give. I saw some other reviewers remove the bumper on the cutout, but the misalignment on mine is bad enough that removing that piece still wouldn't get me close.I also could not get the set screw to tighten enough to hold the tray in place. Maybe if I were able to fit the tray on in the first place, but I have my doubts. This would make it extremely annoying to adjust the height of the tray.The single wheel on the front makes the table a bit tippier than I expected - too much weight on one side feels like it could send a laptop or tablet crashing down.Wish it had worked, but even if it worked perfectly, I think the whole thing is worth half as much as they are charging.

The table appears to function well and is a big savings over the Wahoo table. Strangely, my table included a large amount of tiny spherical specks of steel that made a mess on unpacking. I am guessing that someone accidentally spilled some welding waste or something on the table before it was packaged up. The table cleaned up fine, but the steel specks were a mess.There are several reviews with people complaining about assembly problems. Three hints to help you: 1) the short bolts to hold the top to the legs, must be removed first before you put the top on the legs. The bolts come screwed in all the way, and if you attempt to assemble with them still in, the legs are not going to fit in the holes. 2) Do not tighten the short bolts too tight or you will affect the ability of the leg buttons to work properly. Tighten the bolts enough to prevent the top from coming off, but not tighter. 3) As always with something like this, don't tighten the legs' long bolts until you've fitted the top onto the legs. The top will align the legs correctly and then you should tighten down the long bolts for the legs. If you tighten the legs tight first, you risk them being skewed and not working well with the top.

Got the bike smart trainer and spent all the bucks, don't buy another workstation - this is perfect! Top quality, half the branded price, excellent holders for ipad etc, non-slip top for bluetooth speaker etc, drink holders could be a bit deeper, but not a criticism. So easy to just walk in, get on the bike and get going. Very highly recommended.

Ordered on a Sunday evening, at my door on Tuesday afternoon. Very well packaged. Easy assembly. Well built, heavy duty, solid stand. Just what I was wanting. Front or back slots easily and securely support my Samsung S7 plus tablet without having to take its case off. Cable openings to run cables through to my powered multiport that connects to the tablet. Cup holders to store odds and ends. Front slot great place for the remote for my fan. Wheels lock so stand doesn't move. Overall a very good product. Wish it had been a bit cheaper.

Easy to assemble and very sturdy unit. Comparable to more expensive units and very functionable. Water bottle holders, slots to stand phone or tablet and non-slip pad make this versatile and functional.

I got this table for use with my bike smart trainer. It holds my laptop, water bottles, remote, cell phone, and snacks. It is perfect for my TrainerRoad workouts and Zwift.Assembly was relatively easy, although I ended up not following the instructions. Instead I connected the legs to the table top and then after having built the base with the wheels, connected the two. This is pretty well the opposite of what they direct but it is how you overcome the leg assembly issue that some other people have mentioned in the comments above.Overall this table is great! I would certainly buy another onen and as an added bonus it's half the cost of the Wahoo desk and just as good.

Steady and firm, and can fit my iPad and MacBook so I can see my Zwift and watch something at the same time.

I recently bought a trainer (wahoo Kickr Core) and had the idea of trying to play a few PC games while indoor cycling (spinning?), so I can be less lazy. I already had previous success with my Nintendo Switch (detached joycons make this easy), so I decided to give this a shot. This desk fits my small wireless keyboard and mouse pretty comfortably, is easy to use, and feels pretty sturdy. Plus room for all my other stuff (phones, water bottles, etc...)Assembly:Not bad, I have three left over nuts for some reason. Basically, assembly is just tightening a few nuts/bolts and this comes with the required tools. Was up in running in ~10-15 minutes.The worst part is the styrofoam used in the packaging, it's the cheap kind and there were large pieces that I had to break down to fit in the trash, and it created a mess of small particles all over my floor. Have a shop vac ready if you don't have a large trash can or otherwise plan on keeping the box around.Pros:- This really works, I can easily play PC games while cycling indoors. I tried out Halo: TMCC on PC (Reach co-op campaign w/ friend) and Minecraft, both were easily playable while my heart rate was ~150-160bpm. The desk is actually pretty comfortable (no sharp edges/bad materials to lay arms on). Easily some of the funnest gaming sessions I've had.- Cycling provides a lot of additional enjoyment to my games, this desk helps deliver that experience.- I wouldn't try this for any competitive gaming, just cooperative stuff on easier difficulties :S- Easy to raise/lower height. You can use this as a normal desk without a bike as well, it's just a little high at the lowest setting (raise your seat/use a bar stool).- You can also easily use this as a standing desk, I'm reasonably tall and this scales up to my standing level easily. I am currently typing this review while standing.- Cupholders! They fit my cycling bottles (that usually fit into the cages) perfectly- Stands for your devices: it easily fits my iPad Pro 12.9", which is a pretty hefty tablet. There appears to be holes for some cable management as well.- I like the grippy materials on the surface of the desk, they make things sliding around less likely. If you plan to use a mouse, you will need a mousepad.- Seems like good value compared to the Wahoo desk, but tbh I never tried that one.Cons:- Bumping into the desk may knock a few things onto the ground if they aren't secured (computer mice). Just be careful if you're using this in a tight space like me.- The stryofoam. Ugh.- My USB-C cables wouldn't fit through the holes as the plastic surrounding the connector was too large, but my lightning cables do. Should be fixable with a dremel/drill if you are brave?Conclusion:Good value and versatile (usable while standing/sitting/spinning). None of the cons above are enough to detract a star IMO. I have only had the desk for ~4 days, and will update the review in case anything goes wrong (I plan on using it aggressively), but so far so good! I can see myself using this desk every day, and have so far.

This table is perfect for indoor cycling training when using a smart trainer. It's height can be adjusted in seconds, so you can easily access the perfect height whether using different bikes or using a laptop, tablet, etc. Also, the wheels are a great feature since you can easily move the table while riding. Before I used the table I had thought that it was useless having the wheels, but during my first ride I immediately realized how useful they are. As you make adjustments in the saddle or change hand position on the handlebars, you can easily move the table back and forth to be at the right distance from your laptop or tablet. I think someone mentioned that this table is an imitation of the name brand, but it's still a very sturdy table and looks great. I bought this table from Amazon Warehouse and I suspect it was a return. This was an added bonus because I got a discount and the table came out of the box looking brand new. BTW, easy to assemble, took me about 10 -15 minutes moving at a snail's pace.

I’ve been thinking about a cycling desk for a while but put off due to the cost. It’s still a good chunk of money but it’s a great addition.Assembly was a few minutes.The desk is sturdy and functions well. But has it’s flaws.Raising the desk is impossible while using it as the tension lifts the desk off the ground. Lowering it is no problem.The slots for a phone/iPad are useless as the other reviews state.With the shortcomings I would still buy it again and recommend it.
