FLEXISPOT V9 3-IN-1 Exercise Bike, All-in-one Under Desk Bike, Indoor Cycling Bike with Adjustable Resistance/LCD Display/Seat/Desktop 350LBS Heavy Duty, Stationary Bike for Home,White

I've only had this bike for three days -- but I absolutely love it! I'm a professor at a two-year college who has been forced into online teaching due to COVID-19, and this will be game-changer for me for the coming year. I'm not used to sitting and am usually on my feet most of the day while teaching, so this will be a great way to keep active while sitting.A few things to note about the desk:* Set-up took less than five minutes. The bike is already put together, so my husband just needed to carry it upstairs for me and attach the desk portion. Easy peasy, unlike some other bikes I looked at!* It's very quiet, but you will move a little in an up and down motion while using it. I used it for the first time this morning in a Zoom meeting, and someone immediately asked if I was on a bike. Because of that, I won't use it to teach online (which would also be awkward since I need more desk space to access my materials), but I will still use it for meetings -- even if I look goofy. ;-) So just be aware that it will be noticeable if you Zoom that you are gently moving.* It's easy to maneuver around due to the solid wheels. When you do so, you might want to *pull* it from the seat towards the direction you want to go in. While there are no locks on the wheels, it stays in one place well.* This is really great for checking email and doing work on a computer. Yesterday, I biked for almost three hours at a gentle pace (level 3), and managed to make my Apple Watch Move goal after less than two hours (for 450 calories, using the Indoor Cycling mode in the workouts).* While the pedals are comfortable to use barefoot, I've been putting on some yoga socks, which make the pedal pads more comfortable.* For adjustments, the desk slides up and down and front and back very smoothly. The seat also slides up and down very smoothly, too. Both are very easy to adjust.* The desk has a built-in pad that is perfect for resting your wrists while typing. It's a nice touch!I'm honestly surprised by how well-built, solid, and comfortable this is -- and am surprised by how reasonable the price is, given how sturdy this is. I've already recommended it to a few friends, and it's one of the best purchases I have made in quite a while.I'll update my review as I use this more, but, for now, it is well-deserving of five stars!

This was going to be my Christmas present but it came up as a Prime Days deal so we bought it early. Very little assembly right out of the box. I try to get 6 to 9 miles a day on my regular bike but thought this would be great for the winter months. I'm actually using it along with my regular riding. It is great for a busy life style because you can jump on whenever you have a few minutes. I like to use it while I watch podcasts. The desk was the real reason I got it. I can read a book, browse my phone, play solitaire all while keeping a steady cadence. It is smooth and silent. I ride at resistance 2 and feel like it is the best setting for me for long sessions. Due to having the desk for keeping my attention on something else, an hour can go by much faster and easier than other exercise. If you have an hour to watch TV or browse your phone you can do this. You work up a sweat too with little effort. It is also on wheels so I can easily move it out of the way or from room to room. I've only had it a couple of weeks but I don't see this turning into a clothes rack. It is heavy so you may need help getting it out of the box but I'm hoping that is a sign that it is heavy duty and will last and last with my daily use.

I like the assembly (so easy!) and the different levels have a good range of difficulty. It's easy to work up a sweat but conversely it's easy to keep it very relaxed.After three days though I'm getting a ratchety noise on the right side when I pedal. It's intermittent, and more pronounced on the mid-levels of resistance than either the easiest or hardest. I'll keep an eye on it and may return and request a replacement if it continues. The noise isn't excessively loud, it's just that it's a new thing and makes me concerned it will get worse.I'd like the desk raise mechanism to be easier to manage. I find I have to get off the bike to lower it especially. But it slides front and back easily which is great for when I want to go from biking to standing.The seat raising and lowering is fine. Slightly tighter than I'd like but not a problem.The seat itself is comfortable enough. I do wish they'd offer a seat option that had a back rest but I appreciate that this is helping my posture :-)I'm 5'2" and this works well for me in terms of size; seems like it would do nicely for people somewhat shorter than me and others in my house who are as tall as 5' 10" fit on it easily too.UPDATE: The noise when I pedal is only intermittent :-) Hasn't been an issue on calls in most cases and when I use the bike in general I don't find it to be a problem. The aches and stiffness I'd been experiencing from my regular "sit-and-work" habits have been improving steadily. So glad I got this!
