Don't Play Barefoot - Worth the Money - Works Great on PS2 - One Complaint

This product is great. Obviously, its metal design with pointed corners and screws makes it a danger if you play barefoot - I STRONGLY recommend playing with socks or sneakers on. To preface my review, I only use this on the PS2. Anyway, to the assembly and usage of the product: assembling the stand/handbars is relatively easy. In terms of playing, I've been hitting double and triple A ratings on songs I've never been able to do well on before. It's great, got good feel, the handbars are an appropriate height for me (I'm about 5'9"), and they've held steady after daily intense playing for over a month. The ONLY complaint I can make about this pad is it has required me to adjust my timing by a few milliseconds - sometimes you hit Greats that you could swear were Perfects or right on the beat - and it's because you have to adjust your step timing just marginally earlier. However, you can always try to make an adjustment on your DDR game itself if it really bothers you that much, although after a month of playing it's hardly noticeable to me now. Great product, any DDR enthusiast looking for a durable, good quality pad should look into this one. Good for what you get with the money if you can't quite go for an arcade cabinet or other high end pads.Read full review
