A FEW CUSTOMER COMMENTS :-
By far, the best piece of technology I have bought in my 37 years of life!
If it wasn’t for my wife, kid and job (and needing to eat and sleep), I would have this thing on my head 24 hours a day!
Make sure you get the touch controllers with it, the add so much to the experience. A. Mcadam 5/5

Love my Oculus. Make sure you have top of the line gaming system to support it. Mine developed a fault after a month or so. Contacted oculus via their website and sent it to Scandinavia for replacement. Customer service was first class. No problems since. Recommend DCS flight sim and Elite Dangerous O.B.G. 5/5
