Wahoo KICKR DESK for Indoor Cycling Trainers, Stationary/Spin Bikes, Standing

Solid build, easy to assemble

Expensive but great

We have a bike trainer set up in the corner of our small apartment. I'm a resident physician so hours for training are tight and I'm perpetually behind on all other aspects of life. I got this with the goal of getting more done during my time on the trainer. My frugal wife scoffed at the price tag but even she has grown to love it. There used to be a few knock-offs available but these are no longer, so at present this is one of the only rolling desks custom designed to work with a trainer.Things we love:-Sturdy wheels. Roll it right up when you're doing some easier riding and can catch up on email. Roll it away when you're getting after it.-Super sturdy-Lots of little cable holes to wrap lightning and USB-C cables through to charge devices-Room on the side where we mounted some 3M Command hooks to hold towelsYes it's a big price tag, but it allows you to do more on the trainer in a way few other products do.

Had home made setup, but switched to this desk. Fit is perfect, height adjustment is great, has slots to pull through tv hdmi cable, and fan fits perfectly between legs. Had concern it would block my monitor, but not at all. Other must haves for bike shown: wahoo HRM linked fan and Saris rocker. Keep riding!

Pro's:+ The bearings & wheels roll very smooth and quiet.+ The table extends much higher than I thought it would. I have a very high setting on my triathlon bike.+ The table extends even higher without clicking into a height preset, i.e. when you hold it up: this allows me to lift the table over my elbow rests and store the table over my bike, making the whole setup very compact when storing. If the table had to be stored permanently in front of my bike that would have taken up too much space.Con's:- The price, obviously. After I failed to build my own DIY trainer desk I gave up and threw down the money. Too much frustration. Took me 5 minutes to order, 15 min to set it up. I would have spent more time building my own unit for sure. But in my opinion the homerun price point would be $125, with $99 sale price. I just don't see that many people buying it at $229+, but maybe they are.- I don't like the three wheeled design. It tips over towards the two front corners if you put pressure on the table. I would have preferred a 4-wheeled design, placed at each "corner" (take out the chamfered edges in the front). Stupid.- You're going to want to attach a power strip to this table, along with USB charging ports. And you're going to have to figure out how to do it, because Wahoo didn't design any features to support it.- I wish there was a built-in cable management system.- The mobile device slots are completely useless if you have a case on your device. They don't fit in the slots. Stupid.- The spots for towels are in the front edges of table. It's too far to reach them, and if you can reach that far, you're going to knock everything over that's on the table. They should be on the rear edges for easy access. Stupid.- The table is very wobbly. Jiggles a lot laterally. I expect better for the price.- While it wasn't so time consuming to set up- there's only a handful of pieces to assemble- there were no directions! I tried attaching the height rails to the top & bottom separately and found out they wouldn't go together unless you fully disassemble it and put it back together in a different order. One time annoyance, but it's stupid.- I had to find a 3mm and 5mm allen wrenches to assemble it. After assembly, as I was throwing the packing out, I noticed it had wrenches embedded in the styrofoam. Stupid me this time!Others:~ The table top has a good non-slip texture. It gets pretty dirty, though. I'm concerned about long term durability.~ The packing is very good. Lots of styrofoam to keep pieces from bouncing around, and lots of bubble wrap to keep it free from scratches.

While generally functional, the Wahoo version, of this commonly available computer stand, needs to add a locking wheel option for stability and ideally a FOUR wheel in the front. Since I was using a large 27" touch screen computer on the stand, I had to remove the roller wheels for maximum contact with the floor and to prevent the stand from tipping over because of the three wheel design. Possibly important consideration for buyers, because of its wheel attachment design, the Wahoo stand will sit flat on the floor with the wheels removed - in contrast, the somewhat similar product offered by another vendor (which I also have) will not sit flat on the floor with its wheels removed because of the mount attachment differences and therefore the cheaper unit it is more susceptible to tipping because it is limited to its three wheel design. This may not make a difference for iPads or notebook computers, but I've found the Wahoo stand with the skate wheels removed to be significantly more stable if you use a larger computer on it.

It's a top notch table, well worth the money in my opinion. Assembly was super easy. All the screws are already threaded into their mating holes making bolting it together a snap. The adjustable top can be adjusted to place my laptop exactly where I want it - close to my face while riding. It seems sturdy but with only three wheels it may tend to be tippy if pushed from the side. The only minor complaint I have is the lack of leveling adjustment and, as I mentioned previously, a fourth stabilizing wheel.

Super helpful for indoor bicycle training. Table easily holds a laptop, beverages, gel packs and your phone. Easy to assemble and adjust
