Thumbs up
I got one and mounted it on a piece of 3/4" plywood, 3'x4', which I drag out in the driveway to wash the bike and then drag it back inside the garage to do any maintenance. Just prop it up against the wall when not in use. Well worth the $30.

I have the first one you listed and it works good but it must be bolted down or the bike can fall over very easy... don't ask me how I know
