I have Cyclops aluminium rollers with resistance. But googling them and they're over £300 now. I paid nearer to £200 a few years ago.

Planet X do some similar looking ones but the resistance unit is different.

I have a pair of the Planet X ones for sale with the fork stand for when you don't feel like balancing. Looking for around £150, only listed on a couple of Facebook groups at the mo.

I could do you some planet x ones with wheels so you can ride off the side for £120, collection from GL11.

Elite Arion Digital rollers - they come with handlebar mounted Ant+ control unit; the Elite Arion range covers a number of different models.

These ones are about £300 in the UK; you might be able to get a better price from one of the European online retailers - try bike discount (in Germany); I've used them a few times and would recommend

I don't see mcc point in rollers with a fork stand as one of the benefits of rollers is core stabilisation which you don't get if the from is locked in position.

Only a personal view.........

Mine have more resistance than I want, but I don't think they are supposed to...

I got rollers last year and spent a lot of time dithering between non-resistance or resistance ones. In the end, Amazon had a set of non-resistance ones really cheap (£100) so I got that and I'm glad I did. Plenty of resistance if I use higher gears. Elite Arion parabolic is the model.
