Low quality headset Have used a Steelseries Arctis 3 Wireless for four years. Its low quality quickly become apparent with use. Withinin a year the volume knob and the balance knob started to be loose, and have deterioted further since then. The gooseneck to the microphone broke at one place, without any excessive bending. The silk screen on the led power button was quickly worn off.

Short Shelf Life with Biggest Purchase I've had a number of headsets from SteelSeries in the past which I have enjoyed, but sadly my most recent has been disappointing. The Arctis Pro, which is close to their top of the line, seems to have a weak connection between the headband and the earpieces as the plastic cracked and caused the right earpiece to completely detach after ~8-10 months of use. I have had to hold it together since with hot glue as I consider what to replace it with.

I find that Steelseries has the best… I find that Steelseries has the best products as I was doing research and looking to make an upgrade to my headset. Customer service was also top-notch!

The ol' runaround Don't bother trying to get Steelseries themselves to back their own products. If you can't resolve any issues related to purchased products with the retailer, you're screwed. Steelseries support made me jump through countless hoops with the promise that they would replace a Sensei Ten mouse which developed a defect within three months of purchase. After successfully completing all the steps, including uploading a valid proof of purchase, clear photos of the product from every imaginable angle etc., they just left me hanging for over a year, never once restocking their own product so I could actually get a replacement, until it finally got discontinued, at which point they simply closed my already approved RMA ticket without further comment. Ultimately I ended up getting my replacement from the retailer, who were being difficult at first (which is what prompted me to try my luck with Steelseries directly), but at the end of the day still nowhere near as difficult as the manufacturer. Thankfully we do have consumer protection laws in place here. I would not purchase another Steelseries product if that wasn't the case.

Warranty is thorough! Purchased my headset from a local Best Buy. Two days later I had some issues. I reached out to support through their bot and had a pretty quick experience! I'm confused with some of the reviews below, because my experience was actually simple. The support agent had some personality. Outside of 1 response that over 1 day, I was helped super quick. Their warranty instructions are LONG, but clear. I don't think enough to take a star away. I'd say this was a 4.5 experience. I've already received my replacement and they work great! Thank you SteelSeries! (Next time I'll buy from the site, sorry!)
