Many reviewers praise the quality of the joystick and buttons, noting that they are well-made and a noticeable improvement over stock parts.

Highlights
Quality
The sanwa buttons and lever both work great and are easy to install into my stick without using solder
They are made of polymer (abs), the switch is more smooth, smoochy and returns a little faster and has travel to react.
Everything installed very quickly, how ever the joystick does not come with an octagonal restrictor plate, only the square rest... Read More
The joystick, when you use it to browse xbox menus, causes you to move twice for each action on the joystick.
Price
If you don’t care about that, save some money and only swap the stick imho.
Packaging/appearance
Taking one star off because of packaging, as one of the buttons has a chip in the edge that i noticed after installing.
4 stars otherwise would have given 5 since they look great and came nicely packaged.
2 the packaging was lame, they just throw the buttons on the box where the stick is, 4 button had a pin bend.
To be honest, i really didn't like the cheap packaging, without the sanwa logo on it, it made the whole thing look suspicious.
Competitiveness
Haven't tested other brands as i've heard everywhere that sanwa is sort of the best you can get.
For very little difference in cost i ugraded to sanwa parts vs buying the elite version of the f300.
Even thou it was a good purchase, if you want to upgrade i can't think in a better brand that sanwa.
If you are building or modifying a stick, you can't do better than sanwa for value and classic feel.

But i can say that the buttons and the stick work well after more than 250 hours of use
