Most will tell you Kurt or Cycleops, but if you are not looking for that much and don't want to spend the coin you can consider used. Personally I use a Blackburn trainer and have no issues, it does what I need it to do. Also, I have heard good things about the Travel Trac fluid trainer from performance. More advanced cyclist or wannabe racers won't go for it but for what you are looking for it should be fine.
