Customer Reviews
Good product
No problems with the product or its use. My nephew uses it regularly, with no complaints. Good sturdy product.
bad design
I have been through 2 base units already and I am in need of a third. Most of the reviews are from people who have just gotten this for their Wii controllers. I have had these units for months. I’ve lived with this for some time. I, too, loved them at first. That was, until the unit stopped working 60 days later. It doesn’t take long to wear out the base because of the bad design on the metal prongs that carry current to the controllers to recharge them. If it were me, I would just buy some good rechargable batteries - not this unit. I am NOT happy with this product. And NYKO, the parent company, will not respond if contacted for replacement. Bad product + bad service = bad recommendation.
Junk
Be aware that this product is junk. The “gold” connectors do not make a solid connection with the remotes, which in turn causes intermittent charging. Additionally, the straps clearly are in the way, and the skins that we all have come to love are not compatible. Be prepared to remove the skins each time you drop your remotes into this charger.
Unfortunately, this one was a waste of money; we are returning it promptly.
