Pros & Cons
Pros
Deskcycle has a handy web and mobile app to estimate calories/steps/distance. The calorie counter seems accurate. It's also great for circulation for people who sit a lot for work.
They fit even with bulky athletic shoes. The only drawback is the long velcro strip that sets the proper distance from my chair to the cycle.
Left-side pedals on bikes are reverse threaded, meaning you screw them in counter-clockwise. The unit comes with a pedal wrench so you can really get these things tight. A few things to snap into place and then * in the pedals to the base.
This is a clever way of making sure they get tighter as you pedal, rather than looser. It makes it easy to find the right combination of desk height and a comfortable position.
The ride is smooth as can be, very quiet, and, much sturdier. There's virtually no noise or vibration that reaches the 1st space. It's very quiet and it cycles very smoothly.
Cons
It's too easy to pedal with body alignment issues. There isn't enough travel to feel normal (ideally when pedaling, you want to go from 90 degrees to straight) i'm 5'10 and i'm several inches away from being able to have my knees clear the desk.

Quality
It’s easy to assemble, quiet, sturdy, and he is getting the exercise needed to improve the swelling of his legs.
Easy to assemble, durable, and gives me a great workout while captured at my desk!
This had nothing to do with the performance or quality of their product.
Despite being advertised as quiet, the bike's rattling noise makes it impossible for me to use it while i'm working.
Price
Great price you should absolutely purchase this item.
Well worth the price and believe me i have tried a few.
Don't waste your money on cheap machines.
This is pricey but worth every $$$.
Shipping
The second one they sent me almost ran 2,000 miles and then now i can't see how many miles i have gone because it gave out on me again.
Contacted customer service and received a replacement display within a few days.
Packaging/appearance

The box comes with a tool that is enough to assemble this item.
Competitiveness
I had bought a different brand initially but it didn't seem to hold tension.
I got this one and a similar one that i can also use with my hands more easily if i want to.
