    I've got the Tacx Antares. They're the ones with the slight curve to the surface profile of the roller to keep you in the middle. Seems to offer something over 'tradtional' rollers. The Elite ones are similarly curved and also have a lip at the end of each roller. Though,if you've drifted that far, you're probably coming off anyway!

    I don't think there's much difference between any of the products you list. There's not much to rollers; A sturdy frame, three drums, bearings and a big rubber band. Bearing quality might be an issue, but the manufacturers you quote are all well-established, so I don't think you'd have a problem getting replacements.

    Buy whichever one is cheapest at the moment!
