Ease of use
Extremely easy. There is a one-time setup to set units, weight and type of trainer. There are no complicated menus to learn. There are simply a few modes which you can cycle through to view readout real time vs average.
Quality of Construction
The only part I am not crazy about is the plastic base but it may be no issue since it doesn't take much of a beating.
Fit
Excellent because the weight of the bike and rider sit on the roller. There is no guessing at how tight to make the tire set against the roller.
Comfort
No affect on comfort. This is MUCH more quiet than my magnetic resistance trainer.
Adjustability
Excellent because you don't have to make a bunch of adjustments. Your weight does it for you.
Durability
Time will tell.
Value
Excellent value. Catch Nashbar with a 20% off sale and free shipping and it's a great value.
Appearance
The frame looks very nice.
Customer Service
I received the unit promptly but I have not had to call with any issues.
Performance
Excellent! The readout is responsive and the unit stays quiet no matter what the speed.
Strengths
Wireless readout for mph, odo, watts are excellent. The unit is quiet and is very simple to operate.
Weakness
Plastic base may become an issue but not sure. Also, I know this is not a true PowerTap power reading but it does provide a point of reference for trainer rides.

Ease of installation
There are only two bolts to hold the resistance wheel onto the plastic base and only 1 bolt required to hold the base to the frame. The wireless readout is very simple.
