Criteria Comments Rating
  • Ergonomics / comfort Although some of the buttons are placed strangely, the wheel feels great overall. The pedals are a little too high up, but that's a personal thing. good
  • Accuracy / responsiveness By far the best wheel I've ever used. The force feedback is impeccable as well. great!
  • Durability The wheel is basically rubbery plastic, but it feels like it can take a lot of abuse. The pedals feel like they may not be as tough, but still tough enough. good
Detailed review
After having used this wheel for a few weeks, mostly playing Dirt 3, I have to change my overall rating to a 5. The price of this wheel is phenomenal for the quality of the force feedback and the feel of the pedals. Although other reviewers claim that the pedals are too soft and squishy I just don't get that from them.

This wheel is truly amazing as long as the game you're playing sends good force feedback data. The actual strength of the vibration can be really intense; at full strength settings it's almost too stiff and jarring. There are a lot of settings for vibration strength both in most games and in the software, so it's not a problem but a good thing.

If you want a wheel with a precise feel then this is a great buy.

If you want a wheel that will shake your computer desk to pieces, then this will do that too! :-)
