Yes, all the time, this was really the only upgraded option for a many years, I personally have controllers over 13 years old still working just fine on Best, (other than the boots of course), I wear them out alot LOL, but there are new boots available now, so that's not really a issue anymore either, And there is also a half priced (to Best) mylar option also available now. So there's really plenty of options available now to make theses controllers extremely reliable.
