The index is great, honestly. The knuckle controllers are fantastic (though there's some issues with the surface mounted joysticks not having great longevity), the HMD is fantastic, and the support seems pretty top notch (bad controllers being RMI'd).

The biggest thing seems to be the long lead times between ordering and arrival.

It is top of the line, but definitely in "$$$$" category. Personally, I've grown to dislike wired VR and cannot go back to it even though it has many advantages.
