Really?  That's good to hear.  I was going to order some yesterday but couldn't help but second guess myself after seeing some of the Amazon (haha) reviews saying they fall apart.  
 
Any apprehensions as far as going with the model with the mic for mobile phone use?  I could see how the extra controller could end up being a failure point but it would be a nice convenience.  



The falling apart is on the older models (older batch).  Those problems have since been fixed.  Build quality is fine with the remote.  I use the HF2 and EtyKids 3 (android remote and iPhone remote, both work fine and are built fine :))
