    Great controller! A bit pricey but worth it in my opinion. Went through 3 regular controllers in 2 years at one point and this one was almost in perfect condition after 2 years (just a tiny bit of left stick drift). The 2 year replacement warrantee for $20 was a great deal too. Bought Jan. 2018.

    The controller has a nice feel and seems to have better construction than the basic ones. The different sticks are great. Have not used the underside paddles yet but they have a nice feel. The "hair trigger" lock outs don't work with all games. Some games require the trigger to be pulled all the way down. Overall a nice controller. Only gave 4 stars cuz it is priced a bit high but I would buy it again. Hopefully I don't ever have to.
