Customer Ratings & Reviews

The TH8S is a budget friendly, entry level shifter that is a bit intriguing. Below are my thoughts: [PROS] Setup: Getting started with the shifter is pretty straight forward. You pretty much plug-n-play and then you're ready to go. What makes this an ideal add-on is the USB C connection found on the device that allows for connection with wheels from other manufacturers. Movement/Response: Despite the plastic construction, I am able to shift gears easily and fluidly without awkwardness. Furthermore, I was able to adjust the resistance level to a more firmer feel which I would highly recommend. On screen reaction to my shifting was very precise so I happy to know there wasn't any noticeable latency despite the cheaper price tag. [CONS] Build quality: It's not poorly built, but it is made up of plastic. I am slightly disappointed that even the included clamp was plastic. Because of the build, it doesn't provide the realism one would want to achieve in hardcore sim racing. [CONCLUSION] What the TH8S shifter lacks in look and feel is made up through performance. Despite it being plastic, nothing is truly lost when comes down to function. It can be mounted, modded, and adjusted to suit comfort levels. I prefer a sleeker, more premium shifter, but this definitely a suitable alternative.

Great addon, sturdy and feels good. Used with PC not console. Overall a good buy.

I bought this shifter to replace a cheaper shifter from another brand that was all plastic. I must say, this is just as good as it's big brother, the TH8A, with the exception of no sequential shifting!! It's smooth, all metal and really allows you to feel the shift when you're trying to shift from one gear to the other!! Goodbye cheap version, I'm going to have this one for a long time on my secondary setup!!

Was an open box item but it worked as it should and all the accessories were there also and the price was good compaired to the new un-opened one. So yes id give 5 stars for item being as they described and prompt service as this was also a curb side pickup and i waited no time at all.

The shifter is great but it has it's flaws. The only way to mount it is with the clamp. If it had a way to bolt it to a sim rig with threaded inserts I'd grade it higher. The included DIN cable is way too short if you're mounting it to a simrig like the GT lite. If you're planning on buying this, save yourself some time and order a 6ft din cable too.

This thing is plastic. Plastic as plastic. However Thrustmaster hit a homerun with. This thing is durable and well made. It may be plastic but it can take a beating. Feels great and responds well. I use it a lot and it still looks and operates like new. DO NOT expect to mount this to your sim rig unless you plan on using a clamp. Great product.

I got this because i didnt want to spend 300 on the th8a, and i sim on xbox so i had to use a thrustmaster product, it is surprisingly better than i thought it would be. When holding it in your hands you can tell its cheap, but once its mounted it feels great other than the cheap plastic shiftknob. That brings me to one of the 2 dislikes, the shift knob is proprietary, you cant just unscrew it and put a nicer one on, im going to try to thread the shaft but i havent gotten around to it yet. My only other complaint is that it is clamp mount only, its not meant to bolt to a rig , but thats not a big deal, i just would have liked the option. Overall i would recommend to anyone simming on a budget

This shifter works good for the price. You have to keep in mind that miss shifts won’t act the same way as a real car. You have to shift back to neutral, then shift back to your intended gear. This can be frustrating at first but there’s no way for the shifter to “grind gears” to let you know you miss shifted. You just have to be a little more deliberate with your shifts because the feedback of miss shifts is not possible. Great value shifter here. I enjoy using it.

Amazing item, easy to use, feels really sturdy. And quality of materials used is amazing

It cheap and works well. I got it because I wanted an H-pattern shifter that won't break the bank and will work on my PS5 with the Thrustmaster T300. My real-life daily driver is in Gran Turismo 7, so I like to cruise around with it in-game.

shifts pretty well and nice that it has 7 speeds definitely better then the Logitech one IMO

Best shifter for the price and quality, it feels really nice. Much better than the competing Logi one. Recommended

Great movement very well built, I great purchase overall

The best shift ever Amazing product And real good price

Love it. It's been a great addition to my Sim driving and racing games. Easier to grab the gear I want when racing rally cars, or in a truck Sim. Gives a better immersion to the games. Easy to setup and install. All of my games have recognized it immediately and mapped the gears out automatically.

This is a nice shifter for budget. Plugs right in thrustmaster t128, t248, t300, t500, ts, txm, and t gt ii. On pc plugs into usb with the ablitity to adjust layout with thrustmaster program.

Christmas moring was great for my son getting this! Now he can play his trucking game !

The gear worked perfect for the Ferrari steering wheel

My son loves it as he loves racing games. Uses it all the time.

This thing is a must if you like driving cars or trucks games, hopefully will be plenty of games coming soon to use this baby. It shifts really good, I think if it has a tensioner or something to tighten it could feel like theee real thing i love it.,
