bought a refurb h3 in January 2022, been using it for about 400 miles per month in the winter months since then with minimal issue. got my brother to buy one since then, same report for him (less mileage logged.)

side note that is relevant for slickdealers: we both mainly use zwift, although I switched to indieVelo last winter after the last zwift price increse. As someone who cares much more about training/fitness/logging miles than the social aspect of bike software: I do not see myself ever returning to zwift. $20/month is kinda nuts.

to get even deeper into free alternatives, and why I chose indieVelo over the other popular alternative: MyWhoosh (another free alternative) is primarily funded by the UAE government, so I don't feel good using it. that's a conversation for another forum, though.
While this is a good deal, I think this is the new regular price.

I have this trainer for about two years, and its been good to me. I wasusing RGT, then moved towards MyWhoosh once RGT got shut down. I'm a MTB guy, so I'm using this with a 1x drivetrain and 11-46T cassette, and it works surprisingly well at high incline levels. The trainer is a big step up from my previous fraction driven trainer. No more wheel slip. This is a smokin good deal in my opinion for those who are forced to ride indoors from time to time.

I've got a couple thousand miles on mine now and love it. Using Rouvy, I find that I love riding indoors now, as I can "ride" anywhere in the world, as well as ride with friends remotely, when we're not able to hit the road together outdoors. I haven't had an once of problems with this trainer. Highly recommended!

I've been using this daily for the past 2 years. It's been an excellent trainer for Zwift - so much so that I rarely ride outside anymore. While I wouldn't say it's better than outdoor riding, it's definitely good enough to keep me active every day, even when the weather is bad. In the first 3 months, my H3 made some screeching noises, and I almost considered returning it, but thankfully the noise went away on its own.
