Yea, but look at all the useless info you would have missed otherwise. :)

I've had one for 3 years and I've had to take it apart nearly 10 times. If I'd have taken it to the store it'd have taken weeks or months to get a replacement, so I've always fixed it myself. Other than that it's a great value for your money.

I've replaced mine 3 times... well, the 3rd was already out of the box broken the same way as the 2nd.
Didn't take longer than 2 to 4 days :)
Besides by the law it can't take more than couple of weeks or so.

I had one; and it made a very good replacement for the Cougar which gave me no end of problems.

Replaced it with an X-52 which I'm very happy with.

i have been using mine for over 2 years (well only the throttle part for the last year now) and nothing wrong at all...

before that, i took one back to best buy because i dropped it, and broke it. walked out with another in 5 minutes.
