Direto 2 or Kickr '18

For those who may have used them. There are some factory refirb Kicker '18s out there that are about the same price as a new Elite Direto 2. Which would you get?

I live where there will be snow on the ground by Thanksgiving and it stays till April and the roads are muck till June. I need something for the winters. Looking for something to maybe add some fun to just spinning on my Kreitlers.

I love my Kickr Core, although I haven't used it in about 4 months now since it is riding season. The Kickr 18 is similar to the Core.

Assuming they made some inroads into their QA/QC, the Kickr is a better spec'd trainer, but...
