The headset is very good and provides a great VR experience. The wands can be fragile and break pretty easily. I got a Geek Squad warranty with my set up, and when the wands stop responding to inputs the whole setup was replaced without question. When it comes time for another headset I will come back to Best Buy, but will one that has integrated sensors so I don't need the light houses.

The image quality is great, and it is quite easy to install. - though we had to buy an extra HDMI-to-Display Port adapter to fit our PC. One of the two wall-mounted position sensors developed a fault within a week of set up. HTC online support, so far, has been helpful. We have sent the sensor back, and are awaiting a replacement. Depending on how this turns out, I may need to revise the number of stars up or down!

Had a blast, so much fun. Unfortunately I returned after a week because the motion sickness was terrible after 15-20mins. Could be fun if you have the time to play daily and start with slow games but what fun is that. The games were awesome but I found myself sick daily to the point of running to the bathroom multiple times a day and constant headaches. Wasn’t worth it for me so I returned
