Do yourself a favor and get it from Walmart on sale. $12 for a 3 year warranty so you can exchange it anytime you want (and stick drift sets in quick with my death grip). Highly recommend.
I've had two series 1 controllers and two series 2 controllers. All failed eventually in some way. The last one I had bought from Costco and they kindly gave me all my money back when Microsoft refused to do anything at the thirteen month mark. I bought a DualSense Edge instead and that's been working great for about fifteen months now. If you buy this controller, I highly recommend an extended warranty with it.
Everytime these deals come up I mention if anyone is getting this you better get a warranty. Something on it WILL break at some point. The controller is such a a great feeling control and I love the paddles but buttons will become unresponsive. My RB button only works 50% of the time and I mapped it to a back paddle for the last 2 years

Used to love this controller until the face buttons became fairly unresponsive. Got another one and had the same issue immediately.
Might be worth it if you get the 3 year extended warranty from Microsoft since you can indefinitely send it back to them if you have issues, but I have a kind of hard time recommending this controller either way.

Last I checked they only offered 2 years... My back paddles stop working at 1.1 years. I'm on my 4-5th elite... Of which I'm on my second elite2. Once you program your brain to use them you can never go back.
wow, this is like 50% off. This thing looks like indestructible, must be for clumsy kids
Great deal, got one last year through MS BF deal using bing rewards points.
Own the series 1 and series 2, both are great controllers for the feel and custom settings etc. But like any other controller the rubber grips wears off or peels off. The thumb rubber rips off, and the controller buttons fail or break too.
Now this is from normal or alot of use over 2 to 3 years or less if you have a freak gaming in the house. But everything is fixable or replaceable but not to the quality it used to be.

I was able to buy a 3 year warranty last month. Not sure if that's changed.

Just want to let you know if you need to return online. It would be a massive pain. Took 3 months to get refund credited back to the account and several complaints to BBB and FTC last time. I would pay with a credit card that I can dispute rather than charge to account this time.

He's thinking of the standard warranty that it comes with. It used to come with a 1 year warranty, but they changed it to 2. Getting the 3 year extended warranty from Microsoft is definitely the way to go.
