I have been looking at prices for the Tacx Flow.
Parker £366
Wiggle & Evans £347
JE James £285
Both Wiggle & James throw in the Skyliner front wheel support too.
Why can JE James sell the kit for £80 less than the others? Am I missing something?
I stopped buying stuff at Argos (NOT cycle kit), because a couple of items I bought performed so badly I didn't even want replacements. Then I got suspicious that Argos was selling stuff at big discounts because they had bought in a load of seconds, or items that had already been rejected by customers. So my nasty cynical side is wondering if the same goes in the wonderful world of turbo trainers.
Informed opinions welcome!

If you're near a Decathlon they've got them for £249:

Pic on website shows it with front wheel support, but wouldn't definately assume this is the case.0 -
I was looking at this, one question I see you need to plug it in, I may have to use it outside from time to time given our tiny flat, can it be used without a plug socket?0
