 :) Google them:) I have use Park,Minoura and Tacx-no probs with any of them.Removable accessory/parts trays can be useful...

I've got one of these and its pretty good to be honest. they were on offer at our local Aldi last week reduced to £20!!!
Magnetic spares tray for the nuts and bolts when working on bikes included at that price

Aldi/Lidl ones are decent but they only have them certain times of the year
£20 is a good buy though - they usually sell out fast at £30

Here is mine in the make shift studio.
Once you have one you wonder how you survived without it.
This is an X-Tools from Chainreaction, around £60 if memory serves.
