    Solid controller to put you over the edge of the competition. Biggest problem I’ve had is durability problems get the 2 year tech replacement it’ll pay for itself. On my second controller would buy it again if it wasn’t good just have the warranty this time around.

    Another broken controller

    I took a chance on this after having issues with my elite series 1 and stick drift. After reading how Microsoft was improving the quality with series 2 I decided to try this and got burned again. Within a few months the left trigger is already sticking. I have not had food or drink near the controller. For such an expensive controller the failure rate is way too high. While the controller was working it felt great. Buttons responsive and quiet lots of customization options, back triggers etc but I can't recommend it with the lousy build quality and QC.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
