I'm not sure exactly what he's referencing here, but there was a SD thread about 6 months back where someone shared an REI Pro deal code for the running shoe brand Hokas website, meant only for REI employees. It was probably around 70% off MSRP or so. It was very obvious in the checkout page that the code was meant only for REI Pro members. Hokas ended up cancelling a bulk of the orders. Since then, from what as friend who worked at REI has told me, the REI Pro deals program has been capped at 10-15% for whatever the product/company may be.

FYI:
The H3 does NOT support 12 speed drive trains, even with an XD/XDR freehub.
Edit: according to their website...

Note: I am an average cyclist that enjoys the hobby but do not race or take this hobby SUPER serious.

I had this product for a bit a few years ago and the experience was 90% positive. The only issue I had with this was random disconnects every once in a blue moon, easy fix with just a restart. Most frustrating part for me was setting it up as they do not have a great troubleshooting guide when dealing with connectivity to all sorts of monitors and apps. But besides that all my riding experience has been great, (I used mostly zwift). I have not personally ridden the wahoo kickr but I do like to research products before making a decision and it seems it is a superior product in terms of accuracy, and riding experience. BUT this all boils down to the fact that these reviews are coming from very avid cyclists who train on the regular and can notice the small differences. To me for someone who is in the hobby just for fun and exercise this was not worth paying more for things I probably would not notice too much or care about. At this price I would definitely get this just for trying it out as a first time smart trainer, if you're very serious about the hobby and NEED top of the line, you can just resell this and upgrade it as the resell of this USED is around this price. No brainer deal for myself.

My H2 has been great and I paid a lot more than that. If you've been thinking about a smart trainer this is a great deal.

This would look good next to my bottom end trainer that has accumulated a thick layer of dust.
