Works Great!

I will say I came to this controller only after another branded wired controller failed me, but so far it has worked very well. The colors are real nice. The app was easy to use for color customizations and button mapping. The "6" extra buttons were a little weird since they were really only 2 wheels that had 3 functions each depending on which way you pushed them including pushing them in. The analog sticks feel comparable to the genuine Microsoft controller, but definitely not as nice as the elite sticks. I think this is a good choice being a little cheaper, customizable, and looks good too. If you can deal with a wire, this is a good purchase.

Died almost immediately.

I really wanted to like this controller. The reviews were 50/50 good and bad, but I decided to give it a shot hoping I would get a good one. The analog sticks felt great, the colors were nice, the cable was braided and seemed of good quality. That was all appreciated for about 4 minutes before the controller shut off and rebooted. After rebooting, there was a terrible static through the headset port. I tried several headsets without resolution. I rebooted it several times. I simply could not deal with the terrible noise, -and the possibility of it rebooting again in the middle of a game. I returned it for another brand of wired controller. I only gave it 2 stars because for those first 4 minutes, it was great. Haha.

Great for hard floors, so far.
on September 2, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was originally looking for a Roomba when I found this machine on a Deal of the day for $200. I picked it up as it had decent reviews. We have had it for several months now and it is OK. The charger and base could be easier to program, and is not intuitive, but works to schedule the cleaning once you get it figured out. Then the invisible wall works good, most of the time. The vacuum slips through the invisible wall about once every 2 weeks. Next it does not pick up much cat hair from the carpet, so don't expect it to replace an upright vacuum completely. The hard floors is where this machine shines, picking up the hair, and crumbs from all the hard surfaces. I would say about 3-4 times per week, it has to be collected and returned from its base as it doesn't find its way back before it is dead. It isn't difficult though, as I think my 7 year old enjoys going to find it. one note is that you cant manually set it in it's base, you must set it in front of the base, and push the button to return it by itself. If you set it against the pins it won't charge, for some silly reason. If you let it die completely you have to remove the charger cord from the base (making it need reprogrammed) and plug the vacuum in directly, which is a pain. It is better to find it when it stops and says low. Even when we find it homeless, it has enough juice to drive back into the charger.
Just last week it started making a loud clicking sound while driving. I called the number on the bottom of the machine and after some troubleshooting it was determined that the brush was bad. They sent me a new brush (after only 3-4 months of use) but said "we will send this as a courtesy once." I thought that was strange since it is well within warranty and clearly isn't working normally. The new brush arrived, and it still clicks a little, but is better than before. Time will tell how long it lasts though - I would only recommend this to a friend if they had primarily hard floors to clean.

It doesn't do much.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to try to determine if it could be deployed in an office. The answer was no. If you needed to browse the internet and check email, you can do it with this machine, but nothing more. It has the android operating system, but had multiple errors in the app store. I was able to download google chrome as the built in browser is garbage. Also the keyboard and mouse that come with the machine is also garbage. At this price, it works, but I would recommend getting one of the same price refurbished business desktops available from Best Buy.

I bought 6 of these devices when they were on sale. I got a great product for a great price. They will charge up to 3 devices at one time, and they do it fast. I think it will charge an iPhone several times before needing recharged. I couldn't be happier with these batteries.

Works as expected.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This headset works with the newer xbox controllers with the headset port directly on the bottom (or a stereo headset adapter, of course). I bought this to replace the second Microsoft headset that had failed for no good reason. I had to adjust the volume on the xbox higher to hear my friends talking, and also had to adjust up the in-line volume control, but can hear them fine now. I have to have the mic nearly touching my lips so my friends can hear me, so that is not perfect, but does work. Also let it be noted that the mute control is about 12-16 inches down from your ear, as in hanging. It is not ideal to quickly mute/unmute with a hanging/swinging in-line control. The control would have been much easier to use at the plug end near the controller, but that is a matter of preference. Also to note the plastic headband is somewhat tight on my adult sized head. I find myself putting the right side closer to the back of my head at an angle to reduce the "squeeze" pressure. I think this headset is good for the price, but is definitely not a permanent solution.

I got this on clearance for less than $10, and the children ages 3-7 like it. I'm sure slightly older children would like it as well. For the price it was definitely worth it. It used some of the characters from the older like product, but not any of the newer ones. Like I said, it was good for the price.

Bulky, difficult to use. I returned it.

I had high hopes for this device, but ultimately had to return it. It connected to my standard xbox one controller without difficulty, but made it too bulky and heavy. It made it difficult to easily hit the D-pad quickly. Occasionally while trying to type fast, the letters wouldn't all register, so my taunting looked silly. Also the mute button for the headset control was small and difficult to find quickly. I couldn't bring myself to keep it. I gave it 3 stars because it did work, for the most part, just not well for me.

I have all (soft) fir wood floors, 3 Parrots, and a small breed Dog. I see where this vacume will pick up dog hair but will it pick up after the birds small food bit messes? Also is it gentle on painted wood Base Boards? Thank you

It picks up food related crumbs from my children, so I don't see why it wouldn't pick up after your birds. It sounds like it is hitting the base boards hard, but it has a bumper that gives a lot, so I think you would be fine.

Certain not a sale as its the everyday price st amazon....is it worth the money?. Will I pick up dog hair?

It picked up cat hair fine from the hard surfaces - it struggles some with the carpeting. We have one cat and typically have to vacuum once a week with an upright dyson to get the remaining hair from the carpets.

Does this robot vacuum come with automatic charging docking station?

It does, but is somewhat of a pain to program. It also has to be reprogrammed in the event of power loss.

Does this use suction, or just brush motion?

I didn't see anything in the literature about this using suction. If it doesn't use suction, then calling it a vacuum is misleading, as it would be just an electric sweeper.
It does use suction - I had a problem with the brush and while I was waiting for a new brush, I let it run for about a week without the brush, and it still picked up dust/hair/crumbs from the hard surfaces.

does this really weigh 3.5 pounds?

It definitely does not weight 3.5 pounds. I would say it weighs less than one pound if not less. My wife carries several of them in her purse and does not complain about the weight.
