Works great for the play seat challenge, also very adjustable
Got this because my new fanatec CSL pedals didn’t fit on my playseat challenge properly. The construction was a little bit of a hassle as it doesn’t come with instructions, but a video instead, which doesn’t provide as much detail as paper instructions would, but I still managed to put it together. It comes with lots of extra pieces, so if you can figure out some different ways of setting things up so it works best for your pedals. The mounting holes are also movable, so these will work with almost all pedals. Though I did need the black cylinder boosters that came with my CSL pedals in order for the mounting holes to be flush with the mount. You can also adjust the angle and distance of the pedals which is great.I’ve used it for many hours and it’s been great. The mount doesn’t flex much, and it doesn’t slip under heavy braking. I’m confident this mount will work for a load cell kit. I also briefly tried it in a desk chair, and it still held up, although it’s possible that the wheels could roll over the guard rails under extremely heavy braking. Wouldn’t happen with my pedals though since they don’t require even close to the amount of force.

Nice Product!
I had my eye on this product for a while now. I had Logitech G29 pedals on the floor against a wall for years. But I just recently upgraded to Fanatec v3 and using them on the floor is not suitable with it's load cell.After putting it together, I love the adjustability on this product. You really can fine tune it exactly how you need it, with proper angle and such. It's really great. Plus you can loosen the seat sliders and slide them in to save space.I have only used this product for about 3 hours but it held up well. I am able to adjust my load cell to about 3/4 of full force and it seems to handle it well. The only thing is if you don't tighten the seat sliders enough, it will slide back. I have a concern that maybe at some point, this will happen if it gets loose. Let's hope not. Also, there is flex in this unit when hard braking. But you can't expect something like this with such small pieces not to flex when putting all your force from your leg onto it.Overall, a great product. Will have to see how it holds up over time but really a game changer for me as I can't get a full cockpit because of space constraints. I'm giving this 4 stars because I was really impressed, but not totally blown away. The instructions were not so great (online video) but got the job done. The edges are a little sharp, nothing too terrible but I may cut my toe on it at some point if I'm not paying attention. There is flex which is a negative but to be expected with material as small as this.

No directions to put it together
My first issue with the pedal mount is that they provide no written directions to put it together. Instead they use a video, which is a difficult method to follow because you have to constantly be pausing it. The second issue is that it was not designed for my flight rudder pedals by Thrustmaster. Their was no way to mount my rudder pedals to their brackets. Overall not pleased.

Missing part
One piece too many one piece missing. Got an extra piece I dont need but dont have the one I need.

Useful and redundant!
I needed this badly, but I didn't need everything it comes with. The incline part of this I found to be useless and redundant. Most flight sim pedals are already inclined to begin with, so having an incline on this mount was pointless to me. For me, and I'm sure others, we would be better served having a flat mount with adjustable length instead of an incline that raises the pedals to high off the floor. The incline also raises your knees too high up. I ditched the incline and squeezed a little bit more length out of the rails by setting them up a little differently than what you see on the YouTube instruction video. Now my setup is almost perfect! Hopefully the makers of this pedal mount will make an adjustable rail length mount without the incline. Also note that if you use a yoke with any pitch tension, this mount won't keep your chair from sliding. You will need to have caster wheels with wheel locks on them for your chair to remain still. Of course, amazon sells those!

Best solution for non-rig users
This is by far one of the best purchases of this year.The mount is super sturdy and when you will put the chair in place, it won't move 1 inch even when braking at full force (my brakes are around 75kg max pressure).The only thingy that might be confusing is the assembly, as other people mentioned, it won't come with a manual so head over youtube and follow the instructions. All in all it took around 1 hour, you won't need any additional tools.I can't recommend this enough if you are not willing to spend money on a rig and are planning to buy load-cell pedals.One last thing, the aluminium edges are very sharp and if you put it against the wall they might damage it. I suggest putting tape or something to prevent this.

Works perfect for a home office roller chair, been using it daily without issue
I've got a full sim racing setup with all Fanatec gear and specifically the Clubsport v3 load cell brakes with the brake performance kit to make the brake force very stiff. This pedal mount on an Ikea office chair has worked great and I use it daily alongside a Clubsport 2.5 wheelbase that is mounted to my desk.The only thing I've had to do is tighten the bolt where the pedal mount hinges as this will loosen if you are constantly raising and lowering that hinge to move from racing to non-racing setups like I am. I keep a hex key nearby and it takes two seconds. If you don't tighten it, then on hard brakes you can actually lift the pedal mount at that hinge.Overall very satisfied and this is a perfect setup without a full dedicated rig in the office.
