+ pros
- Reasonably priced for a wheel with sim-essential features like force feedback and a clutch pedal.
- Sturdy build quality with an aluminium wheel hub and a nice feeling faux leather rim.

- cons
- Need to spend time testing and tweaking wheel settings for most games.
- Pedal base lacks grip on smooth floors and pedal spacing between brake and clutch is too close.
- Helically-geared force feedback is still quite loud and emits a rattle when counter-steering quickly.
- Lack of handbrake lever may be a drawback for rally fans or sim drifters.
- Platform-specific wheel means you have to choose between G29 for Playstation or G920 for Xbox.
