I've had this for about 2 years now and it has worked well, the batteries will not fully charge any more, but they still last around 4-5 hours and I tend to only use them when my Microsoft ones are charging or being used by others. The good thing is though I contacted Nyko and told them about it not fully charging and even though they are two years old, they told me if I ship it to them they would replace them, so I would say if you just want something cheep until you get the Microsoft ones then go for it.
