Good comfortable fit, very unstable construction.
For the price ok, but not more.
I use the new Fanatec GT DD Pro Wheelbase with 5 NM force.
Here really all wobbles like crazy and is still just playable so.
With a Logitech steering wheel, that certainly still goes.
The center bar is a massive misconstruction, you bend your foot when braking and I barely get through between the center steel beam. The seat is comfortable, even after 4-5h of racing, but squeaks. The steering wheel is much too close to the body and can only be adjusted simultaneously in height and proximity to the body. That the parts are sold and rated so well remains a mystery to me. But the price is actually not bad.Pro

Little things:
The procedure shown in the instruction manual is not the most optimal, especially if you have bought an additional gear lever bracket. You should study it all carefully and then especially not carry out the first instruction first. (Unless you want the full car mechanic feeling afterwards, with torch and lying on your back ;) )
It is advantageous to mount the pedal (Logitech G29) slightly offset to the right, because otherwise you will bump your leg against the centre bar when changing from accelerator to brake. The holes for this are there, as are enough screws. It doesn't look very symmetrical, but it's worth it.
In addition, the four foam rubber parts that seem to be part of the packaging (the ones with the rubber band) can be attached to the centre rod as shock absorbers with the help of the unbonded adhesive tape.
Elsewhere I read in a review that the steering wheel bar wobbles and the seat squeaks. Neither is true, at least if you mount everything correctly and insert the seat cushion properly instead of using it as a pillow or for other purposes. The steering wheel bar has a bit of play when pushed and pulled without any risk of breakage, which is obvious from the design, but laterally it remains stable. Wobbling would be different.
A couple of colour-matched washable stylish cloths for the head of the seat as an accessory (not everyone wears a helmet or cap) would not have been a luxury. I could imagine that after 10,000 km of driving (approx. 2 weeks) the area will look quite battered.Pro

I bought it for the price, because I had an idea in the back of my head to erase these defects! I've done it, and it turns out to be excellent after a few modifications! In the end, it's extremely rigid and takes up very little space!

Very good quality and appearance
for different riders, a slider is recommended to adjust the seat. In addition, a floor mat protects the ground and also looks chic.
