¶ Overall Sentiment
Members of the community have generally regarded this controller with positive sentiment:
2024: The original CuleedTec controller and the Sefitopher controller seem to be solidly built, but there are too many variants for each controller in the family to be individually tested. Get a Binbok YS32-2 instead.
2022: Probably the most solidly built controller at the $20 price point.
