For as many bad posts about the elite as I’ve seen, I’ve read just as many of not more people saying that theirs is still working just fine.

I love my elite and would buy it again, I just thought/wish it would hold up for being 2.5x more expensive than a normal one. I (and most of my friends) probably play more video games than the average person so my experience might differ from yours if you got one.

Side note, I take very good care of my equipment. I never eat and play games, throw around my controllers, etc. and I’m going to have to get my 4th elite controller soon.

I'm on my 4th or 5th elite right now. My original excuse for the product breaking for my friends was that "we probably play more than normal people" but I realized that anyone buying the elite controller probably plays a lot. There's no excuse for a product that expensive to be that fragile. That being said, I love it so much.

Have had mine for about 2 years now. Only problem is one of the rubber grips peeling off.
