Reviews around the internet, Problems, Mods, and Comparisons to the slightly better Logitech G29
Thanks for your review!...I Got one of the last 3 in my area. I never owned a steering wheel before in 15+ years playing racing games, so my expectations are low...I'll see if I want to keep it or not. More reviews on youtube for anyone on the fence mentioning the pros and cons.
(I'm learning quick owning steering wheels can get very expensive, after considering upgrading to better 3-metal pedals and a shifter stick., so definitely not for everyone esp under a budget...)
Same here, but I've always lived without a steering wheel forever...just wondering if I'll get much use out of it...I own the Legends Arcade games, older PC racing games from the past 10 years, PC console emulators, but I don't own a PS4 or PS5 yet.update: I immediately got the Asseto Corsa games, Project Racing 2, and American Truck Sim... loving them all.
...so I figure worst comes to worst I could always sell it, break even, or make a little bit of a profit if I don't need it down the line.

BEST Comparison video : T300 > G923/G29/G120s >= T150 (But all are excellent starter wheels, before spending more into the $1000s) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgmRvpsz_JQ
Conclusion: imo, the G29 may be slightly better than T-150 due to overall build quality & longevity & cheaper to add Shifter, but this T150 is also ok due to its lower initial $99 cost, slightly smoother FFB/ more quiet advantages vs the G29, if pedals are upgraded to T3PA, after doing the various MODS, & if nothing burns out or breaks down.

I own this steering wheel and I have to say, this is an awesome deal to get into racing games to see if you like owning a wheel. I got it for $120 and it's always worked really well. I've used it with NFS: Heat, Snowrunner, Wreckfest, Forza Horizon 4 and 5 and a few others, incl VR games like Dirt Rally 2 and Project Cars 2. It has performed well with all games, though occasionally needs some settings adjustment depending on the game. The force feedback is reallllly great for such an inexpensive wheel. My friend owns the Logitech G920(?) and the force feedback on this T150 is pretty much on par with the $300 wheel. The only real downside to this wheel is that the pedals aren't the greatest - but they are perfectly serviceable and work just fine. Considering how cheap this is, you could get the metal Thrustmaster pedals to go with it and spend $200 total, which is still cheaper than the Logitech, and once the T150 has metal pedals then imo it's pretty much equal with the pricier Logitech wheels like the G920/923. Anyway, if you have been wanting a wheel and don't want to drop $200+ then the T150 is just about the best option out there imo. The wheel is solid and feels great and it works really well.

How did you get that to work out? I work for Best Buy and they couldn't do price match for me due to them stating it's a clearance item and the price is below Best Buy's cost. After my discount it's still over $150.

I went to the Best Buy site and found the T150, chatted with the service agent and they price matched it for me, had to give them name number and email.
The GameStop site went dead and said none available while I was chatting with the Best Buy agent.
So I ordered two for my grandkids and nieces so they could race me haha. I had them in my cart and went to pay for them yesterday with the free shipping and in the end it said I had nothing in my cart. So I went through the process and had to pay the next $10 shipping but I placed the order last night. I contacted them this morning on chat and asked them to refund the $10 and they said they would once I received the shipment and that they notated my account. I do need to contact them after I receive them. Your mileage may vary.

Did online chat and told ther person not here to waste your time can you price match, sent them the link which at the time gamestop had it unavailable and they guy said they were able to price match and even offered me 3 options of doing so, either buy it online and send them the order number for a refund back, have him set it up in the chat and send me a link to purchase which is what I did or to go instore. But yea I was able to complete the transaction and have it for store pickup.

Best Buy's policy for price match is that the item must be in stock at the source store during the time of matching. If not then they don't do it or at least not supposed to. I missed this deal yesterday but did you do the price match when it was still in stock yesterday?
