    This gamepad is easy to use and very sturdy. Plug-n-play makes this controller a snap to use.

    Good controller. I purchased to use on a PC running android x86 so the fact it works at all for something unintended is good as it is supporting Windows not android os. Most ROMs have a controller support that works well with this application and you can also purchase an app to program it for specific apps. Again I use it to play android touch screen games on a PC and for the most part it works.

    I am not a gamer. I was expecting that I would plug in the controller and it wold work, but it would not work with the setting for the game. I do not know if there is a patch that will make this plug and play without a third party app that will need formatting. Not sure if this is a mac issue only...

    The controller work as advertised BUT button was sticky and some buttons required more force then necessary to work. Otherwise, the thing is a USB controller and it was cheap. What did you expect from a cheap controller?

    Being in the market for a gamepad, I decided to buy this one. It was relatively cheap compared to others, and I had expectations for it to not be the best. I was wrong. It was horrible for what I was hoping for. The analog sticks are also the D-pad/buttons, and I had to use an external program for it to work well. If you just want to play a few flash games, get it. For gaming with Steam or things like that, don't get it.

    I bought this a month back, I did not used it much, but working perfectly for all the time I have used it. There is one problem I was facing, the vibration does comes up while I play it using NFS, I have tried all the settings on the game, but didn't worked out for me.

    If your'e not a die-hard gamer and just enjoy PC based games for fun, this is a perfect way to get console style interaction. Takes some getting used to if you've been using they keyboard, but once you've got the hang of it, you'll never go back to keyboard controls.

    This product was absolutely useless. I tried playing skyrim for pc and this controller could not be configured to work with the game. Others online were suggesting a third party software solution. Really? Steel series says it is plug n play. Not a chance. It was suggested to me by a Game Stop employee that I use an Xbox 360 controller. I bought the wired version they said would work. Wow what a difference that made on my Windows 7 PC. Plug n play right out of the package.

    Personally, I like the XBox One controllers for PC gaming, but I have a couple of games that just don't like the XBox game pads; mostly the problem is the triggers - they don't see the triggers as two separate inputs. So I got this controller specifically for playing those games, and it works great. My only complaint is that there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off the "turbo" function once it's on for a button, and I have to manually enable analog stick mode by pressing the mode button every time I use this controller. For the price, it's well worth it.

    The drivers are ok for windows 7, but nonexistent for Windows 8.1. Not all games support it. Other than that, the games it will work on, the device is spectacular.
