CoffeeRacer 'Play'

I really like the stiffness of the rig and it's easy to setup design which is 5/5. However for me personally there is some room for future improvements, mostly personal preference but some regarding ease of use and technical flaws A) the vertical locking of the pedals can't be fixed permanently - if I need to slide them into position the vertical setting can unlogg B) I optically don't like the the groove on the front and back side and would prefer a clean front and back C) an optional wodden topping for the play version would be great D) since I have a soft wooden floor I can't use the rolls without ruining my floor simply due to the rig being so heavy. Felt gliders with the option of locking would be perfect - I'm currently using a similar selfmade solution E) the mount for the power supply is too small for the fanatec dd/dd+ power supply F) You can get your fingers squeezed when closing the lid and it can make quite some noise (dad racing mostly when kids are in bed) G) it's still a bit pricey even if it's good quality G) it's meassure is just on the edge of being too big - 5 cm less in width and length would be perfect in my opinion E) an integrated possibility to store your wheel would be great F) I need to unplug all cables from the backside of my dd+ base everytime I uninstall the rig since otherwise the connectors would bend and eventually break - that's not really user friendly

Maybe it sounds like quite a lot to improve but as I said I still enjoy it's functionality and racing is definitely very enjoyable too with this rig

I’m very happy with my CoffeeRacer Play purchase, the rig is very solid and has been a massive upgrade over my previous desk setup. I use it in my living room in front of the TV, using the sofa as my driving chair. Since I am using it on a rug I was worried it would be moving around a bit with all the pushing and pulling, but with locked wheels it doesn’t budge an inch.
Pedals and wheel stand are easily adjustable, and making quick adjustments when showing it off to friends is very easy.
The delivery of the product was troubled and took just over a month (living outside of the EU so customs process may have played a part) and there were a couple bends on the frame once it was delivered, but nothing some “good manners” couldn’t sort out during assembly.
Even though it looks like it’s designed to look like an office cabinet, the coating on the metal is of good quality and it looks pretty good in a living room setting overall. And it’s on wheels so it’s easy to just move it out of the room if we need space for guests or similar.
Especially happy with how quick it is to open and setup, make sure you have easily accessible power and USB sockets and you’ll be able to set it up in just a minute.
I am using a Thrustmaster 248 racing wheel and it fits perfectly inside - larger wheels may need to be removed from the frame to make sure it closes properly.
I would suggest it to anyone that can’t afford having a dedicated space for a bulky sim rig. Considering the level of adjustability and solidity of the rig, I think the price point is also very competitive when compared with other non-foldable rigs.
Comes with a few handy bits and bobs to help with cable management which was really appreciated

Die Version Play ist einfach mega, es ist relativ leicht zusammen zu bauen (ca. 1std). Der CoffeRacer ist mega stabil, habe von fanatec die dd base mit 8nm da wackelt nix. Der einzige Kritik Punkt den ich geben kann ist der einstig mit den Beinen. Ich bin relativ normal gebaut, 1,80 groß und finde den Einstieg bisschen eng also die verstellschrauben für die lenkradhalterung sie stören ein wenig und auf längere Sicht tuen die echt weh an den Knien. Aber sonst kann ich den CoffeeRacer sehr empfehlen.

The product is fantastic, the quality shows and the assembly was not difficult at all. Everything is included down to cable ties and sleeves. Just note that the boxes the product come in are both as big as the finished thing, so if you plan to pick it up yourself, have a suitable vehicle 😁
