If not, what's the latest forum advice on:
Direct Drive - is it worth getting one at the lower end (i.e.) 450 quid: https://www.evanscycles.com/elite-turbo-muin-direct-drive-smart-b-EV256907
or worth getting a regular smart trainer at that price- i.e. skipping the entry and going for mid level?

I don't care about training profiles or any fanciness - I just want to be less fat. I'm housebound for the next few months (at least in terms of cycling) and have a solid kitchen floor and plenty of space with no worries about noise.
I'm prob going to give Zwift or similar a go but don't have or desire heartrate monitors etc. Just a smooth ride with relatively realistic resistance so I can do some sprints and a few longer stretches a day.
