The H3 is heavy, but that's a good thing in a smart trainer, as it's firmly planted on the ground and doesn't wobble, even in a sprint. At least it didn't for me -- you may be a stronger sprinter! It synced effortlessly via Bluetooth to Zwift, Trainer Road, and Training Peaks without a hiccup. I put around 100 hours on it, with nary a hiccup. I can't speak to the accuracy of the power numbers, as I'm new to that kind of thing, but it seemed to mirror pretty closely what I expected.

The handle makes it quite easy to move, if you need to do that, and it's a rather small overall footprint, given how big you might think it is. I think it's a superb smart trainer, and Saris, as you probably know, has been in the game a long time (previously as CycleOps, which probably also know), so they're not new to trainers. I'd have no hesitation recommending it.
