Width of stand is 16" wide, 26" long, and between 18" to 28" high (the wheel attaches to the top of the plate, so your hands will be a few inches taller then this at full upright verticle position).

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a product that is as good as the service!, April 16, 2011
This review is from: Racing Steering Wheel Stand for Logitech G27 / G25 Wheels, Deluxe, Original Wheel Stand Pro Stand (Electronics)
Ok so first and foremost. I am HUGE on customer service! HUGE! I mean who isn't?
You spend your hard earned money and you expect to be treated accordingly.
Let me just say that the English dictionary has yet to come up with a word that encapsulates the phenomenal customer service I received from Wheel Stand Pro's U.S. distributer in Texas!
If I understand correctly, it is run buy a couple that shares in the passion of sim racing.
They are amazing, amazing people! I was in touch with them several times and always had a smile on my face after I was done!
I rarely write reviews but after the level of care and service I received I absolutely had to!
Again, I am HUGE on customer service!
I think these people should be the standard for how to treat customers!
A true model of perfection if you ask me!
ABOVE AND BEYOND anything I have ever seen!

Now the product.
Its just as good!
Yes, it does come at a price... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Pricey, but close to Perfect., November 24, 2011
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Racing Steering Wheel Stand for Logitech G27 / G25 Wheels, Deluxe, Original Wheel Stand Pro Stand (Electronics)
This is a bit pricey, but if you don't mind making the sacrifice, you will be satisfied. My only complaint is the fact that the gear shifter is so close to the wheel. I wish there was a way to make it more realistically set. Either way, I wouldn't return it, and I am very happy I purchased it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome stand, September 29, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Racing Steering Wheel Stand for Logitech G27 / G25 Wheels, Deluxe, Original Wheel Stand Pro Stand (Electronics)
I've been using my wheel clamped to a board or shelf for the past few years, I didn't want to get a complete seat and frame as my storage space is limited. This stand it Awesome! It's very well built, comes with bolts to attach the wheel and pedals, and is very easy to set up. It is a bit pricy, but this is a quality piece of equipment and well worth it if you don't want to go the whole driving seat set-up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Experience Depends on the Game... Wheel is Great Though, July 11, 2008
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Logitech PlayStation 3 Driving Force GT Racing Wheel (Video Game)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
Summary [8.5 out of 10]
====================================

The Logitech Driving Force GT PS3 Wheel is an excellent driving wheel with a good build quality at a solid price point that will satisfy any casual or avid racer. Unfortunately not every game makes correct or full use of driving wheels, but the ones that do (e.g. Gran Turismo 5) create a surreal driving experience that will satisfy any driving fan.

For the purist that must reproduce the true racing experience in his or her house, we would still suggest the Logitech G25; it is, however, more than twice the price of the Driving Force GT.

What's in the Box?
====================================

It's a good sized box, about the size of a Logitech 2.1 PC speaker package. As shown on the box there was an instruction booklet, pedals and wheel (with integrated shifter).

What I was really surprised to find in the box, and it might have been a toss-in for some... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Addition for GT5 P, April 30, 2008

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Logitech PlayStation 3 Driving Force GT Racing Wheel (Video Game)
I purchased GT5 Prologue and played for 2 days using the Dual Shock controller, while the game was fun, I was having trouble running well on several tracks. Over the weekend, I went to a local store which had GTP5 and the racing wheel setup as a display. After sitting down and using the wheel for about 10 minutes, I knew it was a must have. The wheel itself feels well made of durable products, the rubber on the wheel makes it very comfortable. It also has reduced my times in the races where I have used the wheel. The setup was easy and control layout is easy learn. Some reviews I have seen discount the wheel because it does not have a clutch or shifter with actual gears set out. But with the $100 I saved, I am willing to live without theses features.
There are a few downsides, I was hoping for a wireless wheel, but it connects to the PS3 with a USB cable. However, the cable is a good length and allows you plenty of space to move across a room. Also, you have to plug... Read more

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Logitech PlayStation 3 Driving Force GT Racing Wheel (Video Game)
I have played the GT franchise games since GT2 on PS1. Needless to say, I have plenty of race time behind the "wheel of the iconic Dual Shock series of controllers. With that in mind, I can never go back to those days after experiencing the Driving Force GT.

The build quality is very solid, as is expected with logitech products in general, and feels very good in your hands. It has a good amount of weight to not feel cheap, but is not heavy to the point of inconvenience. The size of the wheel is smaller than an actual steering wheel, but is of comfortable proportions for long racing sessions.

The control layout is very simple, and translates well from the standard controller scheme. Navigating menus requires zero adjustment time. The real time adjustment knob is promising, and will no doubt be a great tool for the full version of GT5.

The pedals are well built, and are on a solid base, which is an appropriate size and weight to be stable... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for 3 hours, now dead; support is slow to resolve, May 21, 2011
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Thrustmaster T500RS Racing Wheel (Accessory)
I was very excited as I unboxed my T500RS to replace my well worn G27. I attached the wheel and pedals to my Playseat WRC; the wheel fit perfectly, but the mount holes for the pedal set did not line up, had to zip-tie in place. (I have seen rumors on line that Playseat is working on an adapter but 5 months after release it is still yet to be seen...)

I started Gran Turismo 5 on my Playstation 3 and got in about 3 hours of play. The wheel was remarkably better than the G27, impressively responsive.

I turned the system off, and returned a few hours later for another session, to find that the unit will not power up. The AC Adaptor's indicator light is on, so it must have power, and when I connect the USB cable, I hear a high pitched whine coming from the wheel, but the power light on the wheel does not light up and the unit is not responsive.

VERY disappointed that a such an expensive unit would die on day 1. Awaiting a response from Thrustmaster... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The best wheel on the market, March 14, 2011
By 
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Thrustmaster T500RS Racing Wheel (Accessory)
When the Thrustmaster T500rs came out, I laughed a little bit. Thrustmaster has not made a good wheel in quite some time and at the price of 600 dollars, its double the cost of a G27. Not only is it double the cost, the wheel wheel housing is intensely large and the pedals are quite cumbersome. That being said, the wheel is superb in most every way.

I recently had a chance to use the T500rs for a while and was taken aback by how good it is. The force feedback is quite robust and precise. It gives a lot more feeling of realism only dreamed by the other wheels on the market. The wheel feels weighty, like a real car wheel, but lightens up the faster you drive and turn. This dynamic response is greatly appreciated when driving simulation racing games. Road inputs are much easier to feel with this wheel improving the users ability to respond and drive dynamically.

The buttons on the wheel are a mix between the G27 and the driving force GT. The versatility of the... Read more
