The most road like feel of any trainer I have used and it can't leak fluid. Its built really solid. I did have a problem with the screw that you turn the knob on to apply preasure to the wheel. It stripped. I called Kurt Kinetic and a live person answered the phone on like the second ring and she was able to help me right away. No questions asked they sent me a replacement screw and knob. I had it in 3 days. I also learned that putting a few drops of chain lube on the tensioner bolt prevents it from binding and stripping, not to mention it makes it alot easier.
