The Instructions suck, build quality is questionable, but it works.

Firstly - I don't know HOW these people are breaking the welds on the shifter arm, but I think my video speaks for itself. I was VERY worried about that, given that some H-Position shifters require you to push down to "lock in" the reverse gear. As you can see the force necessary, as well as QUITE a bit more is NOT a problem for this stand. I'm really not sure what other people are doing, but this one particularly is pretty solid despite the horrendous spot welds they didn't even clean up.Fit and Finish: Not bad, could be better. Leaves a little too much wiggle room for my liking, but it's also one of the cheapest stands on the market that actually LOOKS decently equipped for the task. I had some paint chipped off here and there, and one of the plastic sleeves for the height adjustment was a bit disfigured, but a little heat took care of that.Quality for the price: Honestly probably better than several more expensive options out there. Yes, it will wiggle left and right, and slightly forward when pushed; and honestly that's NOT a bad thing. There's a reason that bridges move in the wind! When you're talking about the rigidity of an object it NEEDS to be able to move if there's force applied, otherwise it'll just break QUICKER.Alignment: Worked out perfectly for my particular use case, and situation; but it IS made in china - as most things on amazon are now a day - so there's going to be quality control issues, so be prepared for those.Instructions: Dog poop - Just toss them, and watch the video they have in the description or use the guide that was posted in the reviews by the other user. Theirs - even revised as mine were - are TERRIBLY written and literally say things like " this bolt goes on one side while this bolt goes on the other" Oh, okay, because I guess they're just freaking interchangeable, right? NOPE. Just poor translations at their best.Life Expectancy: I'm not honestly sure, but I am pretty certain that if you're not using this for some INSANE

Put Together In About 10 Minutes. Great Quality!

Probably one of the easiest things you can assemble. Everything needed is here. One thing I've seen in reviews is that there should be better support for the foot pedals because they move around. The foot pedals, steering wheel column, and stick shifter for the wheels have bolt holes and as for this product there are slits on the platforms that are designed to bolt them in. This kit includes all the bolts needed and the wheel, stick shift, and pedals can be bolted and tightened onto the stand.The stand itself is excellent quality and very supportive. After everything is assembled it is a little heavy to lift. It's not super lightweight and cheap feeling. It get's the job done wonderfully!

It’s great

It’s wasn’t too hard to build it just took a little bit of brain power to do. It’s sturdy just wish it had a place for the clutch to go but great for the price

Good for what I expected from a 20ish pound stand

Given the video reviews of nearly all such stands knew going in it would not provide the four figure highly stable cockpit experience. It's a budget item. 21 pounds with a big lever holding the wheel. But, it meets my needs for periodic console gaming on a budget and be folded, dragged, or even carried out of the way without too much trouble if you don't have a space to dedicate to it.Firstly, use the video assembly instructions the seller has provided; much better than the included sheet. It's mentioned in the listing but not very clear -- there are included M6 fasteners that work with Logitech and probably other controllers if you want to hard mount. Before any assembly check the provided plates against your controller mounting holes -- I somehow managed to reverse both the wheel plate and shifter plate but easy to rectify. Was shorted one needed screw and provided some spares of others. All of the captive nuts were fine on my unit, one set of holes was very slightly undersized but not enough to damage the fastener so didn't enlarge. Before ordering was aware that hard braking on my pedal pushes my chair back with some force so using a chair with wheels would be an issue. You can find some stands with a wheel slot for 1-2 of the casters that will keep a chair in place. This doesn't have one so options include fabricating a slot, replacing wheels with feet (available on Amazon), or what I did for now -- purchased urethane wheels with decent looking brakes here on Amazon. These are working quite well on wood floors, office mats, and carpet so may not have to fab a slot. You can spend more and won't get more much more stability from a stand of this design. You can however spend more and get more adjustability. It's working pretty well for me at 5'7.

Instructions terrible, not sturdy, missing bolts.

Instructions are terrible and missing bolts. But luckily I had bolts so I made it work. Going to have to modify this a bit to make it sturdier. So me it wants to fall forward if I pull slightly on the wheel. Maybe a counter weight should be in consideration for future versions. I’ve got what I needed to get started a moveable base now I’m going to tinker around and make it better. If you don’t mind modifying it to make it work for you then this is a cheap way to make that happen.

Sturdy wheel stand

This wheel stand seems to be super sturdy and was easy to assemble and very adjustable! We have used so much for dirt racing and drifting games and it has held up to the wheel turns and the pedal movements very well!

Works well with G29 so far

I was really on the fence about getting a challenger or gt lite. I went with this solely for the price, and after reading reviews about stability, was ready to return it before it arrived.Honestly, it's not that bad, the stability isn't that bad if you really tighten things down. Are people expecting it to feel like its mounted to a wall? If you had the know how it would be easy to modify this thing to suit whatever needs you have.Instructions aren't bad either. Didn't show me which of the holes to use on a couple spots - that's because it's up to you. you can set it up to basically sit on the floor like an f1 car and prop the pedals up at an angle, or sit up high like a truck with the pedals flat on the ground. For the price, versatility, and compact design, I'd call this a win. (have not tried shifter mount yet, but looks decent.)It's small enough I can just move it out of the way when not in use. Just trying to figure out which chair to use with it.
