Garmin Tacx Boost Indoor Trainer

I am sorry to say I am not at all thrilled as yet, if ever, with this trainer. Perhaps, and forgive me for being rather shallow, it was the color (??!) that attracted me. I have had some 7 trainers over the years: fan, magnetic, fluid, roller. I wish I had gone with the known and reputable Saris trainer (I've had two).

With many "new" items, there are always specs and bugs and mismatches it seems that are extant. Here the first thing that comes to my mind is "a $300+ unit with a $2 set of directions." Not sure exactly what else I was expecting. It gets two stars for being apparently smooth in the operation. But it doesn't have that "wow" factor, and I won't spend much over $300 for a trainer. Honestly, it will almost certainly go back. The dismaying thing is this: in 35 years, I'm fairly certain I have NEVER sent ANYTHING BACK to Performance. I hate that this unit will not be part of my collection and is my sole return to a company I rever. Again, sorry for saying this, as your products are outstanding! Not this one, per se.
