Help Foldable Setups (GTLite air?)

Hello everyone!

I've recently purchased a G29 wheel and pedals that's been modded with an Acelith Morph G30 wheel. He's since upgraded and got a half decent dedicated setup.

I'm however at the starting grid with no space for a dedicated setup currently but have been interested in a foldable which is manageable.

From reading online, generally the Playseat Challenge is recommended as one of the better foldable but has noticeable wobble with the deck.

I've noticed the GTLine Air has not long released and reviews seem to be quite positive. Has anyone tried one or can compare to the Playseat Challenge?

I have this one: https://nextlevelracing.com/products/gt-lite/

It sucks for a number of reasons. Its heavy and cumbersome when folded up and not as "storable" is it would seem. Total pain in the ass to fold up and move. Unfolding it is also such a headache you'll talk yourself out of playing. Even with practice its a 2-3 minute setup time. The seat itself imo is uncomfortable, so i have some coushins from the couch on mine. Mine pretty much stays unfolded and ready for use 100% of the time.

Its nice that it can get put away when required, but if your vision is "i can tuck it away every night...... to save space" let me stop you right there, I abandoned that thought the 1st week. I dont think mine has been folded up in a few years now, and I just slide it into a different room.

Thanks, that was my understanding of the GTLite and what I had read from users that already have it. However this is the GTLite Air I'm querying. It's a new model. Link below and some review clips. Sorry I'm not sure who is a decent reviewer of some equipment.
