    Worth every penny! The feel of the control feels so much better then the one you get with the console. Super easy to set up buttons. Very comfortable in the hands

    I had the Gen 1 Elite Controller and the grips came off, just was overall not well built. The Gen 2 is much tighter and has much better grips. I also like the 1 piece design and the charger it comes with 10/10 overall

    Worked great for a while, but then one of the paddles and left bumper stopped working! Thankfully Microsoft replaced the entire controller, no questions asked!

    This has been a great controller so far. Not sure if it’s $180 great but thanks to gift cards and rewards it didn’t cost me that much. Highly recommended if you are a die hard Xbox user.

    It is very overpriced, but being able to remap the controller is very helpful (especially for games like Call of Duty where you can't look around while putting in your armor without remapping the buttons)

    My husband absolutely loves this controller. The fact you can customize your controller and it allows the changing of settings with just a button makes it super easy to use.
