My previous headset broke and I was looking for a cheap but okay quality headset. This fit the bill. I've had it for around a month now and (despite some reservations) I have to say I'm pleased with it. The microphone is clear with minimal background noise and the sound quality is great. Only real drawback in my opinion is the flimsy feel of it, if you're hard on your equipment then this probably isn't the headset for you. I feel like I could snap something very easily.
