FitDesk stationary bike

Does anybody have experience with the FitDesk stationary bike? http://www.amazon.com/FitDesk-Compact-healthy-computing-gaming/dp/B003JTLJFY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322012786&sr=8-1

Looks like it might be something that would be good for me, since I spend a lot of time on my laptop.

I use one of the Drive or Stamina models..,but your link went to several items. I am currently using a wheelchair and needed something I could use freely, in front of TV, etc while still sitting. I've been using it for about 2 months solid, every day. It's not going to be the same as a full on stationery bike, but it has made a world of difference for me, and they are cheap! Plus you can bring up on a table and just work your arms, and that really creates a cardio burn. I don't know about a laptop while you ride, as your legs and moving up and down, and the angle of these things may require you to slouch out a bit to get good foot rest traction. But it's better than nothing! (which is what I was doing).

good luck!

I have not actually used one but was looking into one. Just make sure, you know what you are getting. Now there are two types. The FitDesk Pro which is the original, its just the laptop holder and nothing more, the bike is not included. Then there is the FitDesk X Compact Pedal Desk which does include a portable stationary pedal bike. Look it up in Amazon. Hope this helps.

That's what I bought to try out and it's compatible w several different machines, it works really well for what I needed
