Concept 4 Racing Wheel

Durability- This thing is extremely durible. The whole thing is made of super thick plastic and some parts are made of metal. All of the buttons felt fine, none of them felt like if I pushed it to hard, they would break. The D-Pad is fine, as well as the 2 levers on the back of the wheel. They are made of metal, and I don't plan on them breaking anytime soon. The wheel it self feels very solid and doesn't feel like it is about to fall off the base. The thing is quite heavy.

The foot petels are very good as well. The are light, but have rubber grips and don't move when you use it. I thought for sure the petel would snap when I applied pressure, but the wheel held up quite nicely. Overall, this is a high quality, durible product.

Features- This thing is packed with features. The wheel is covered in rubber. It is very comfertable and eliminates and slipping of your hands. My favorite feature is the button relocator. You can totaly custamize your button set up. This is great because I don't like the petels. Therefor, you would need to use the levers behind the wheel, but I hate them too. So with the button relocator, I can have the brake and accelorator buttons where I want them. Another excelent feature is the rumble. It is by far the strongest rumble you are ever likely to feel. You do have to plug it in though, but they include an A/C adaptor. It is also fully adjustable to accomedate different sized people and different surfaces. It includes clamps and suction cups to attach to a table. But you can also have it between your legs and sit in a chair (I sit on the floor) with it. It is very versitile.

Price- If you ask me, $60 is awfully steep (it was a gift, the price would have turned me off). But after using it, I can say that $60 is well worth it. There are cheaper wheels on the market, but I can garuntee this is the best one out there. The price is steep, but its worth it.

Ingenuity- Now this is tough. Nothing on this is new. There are customizable buttons on other controllers, petels are nothing new, rubber grips aren't anything new either. There really isn't aything innovative here, but to inlude it all in one product has never been done. So it scores a few points there. It hasn't added anything new to racing wheels, but it perfected it.
