  • No mount and cord is shorter
Edition: Base Station 2.0
Like other reviews have stated there is no mount. You will have to buy a stand or mount separate. The cord is also a lot shorter (maybe about 5 feet) than the one that came with my Steam VR set. So plan accordingly. It is steamVR compatible. If this is your 3rd+ base station when you first start steamVR you may get notified that you need to change the channels on the base stations. The steamVR popup window will guide you through this process. If they add the mount and increase the length of the cord. I will raise it to 5 stars. This base station is $50 more than it is on the steam store (but at least it is available). edit: I had a mechanical failure under a year. HOWEVER vive replaced it for free and even has a recycling program for the old broken one. Because of this I am raising it to 5 stars for the time being (I will lower it back to 4 if this one dies under a year as well). ... show more

  • Questionable Steam Policies / OverPriced
Edition: Base Station 2.0
Like 90% of other reviewers, I was forced to spend the extra $50 for the same product with out a wall mount, so add another $15+ to get the same product you, should, be able to get from steam, but when there is only one manufacturer, they get to set the rules. That said this base station has been working as intended for the short time I've had it, it'll be interesting to see which last longer, Steam does a much better job of shipping these base stations. ... show more

  • iffy quality, missing parts, inferior parts, packaging is very sub-par
Edition: Base Station 2.0
Mine were scratched up and didn't have the film to prevent it that others come with, and beyond that, these are about 30% overpriced compared to a number of other options, and offer fewer features. you get no wiring to plug them into your computer, and even the power cable is cheaper and angled sideways, resulting it unnecessary strain, even if it's less obstructive to other plugs than others would be. as the cherry on top, there's no mounting bracket, so if you get these, you'll also need one of those. it's a standard camera screw, I believe, but mine is still printing out (thank the fact that patents end for 3D printers, am I right?) I think it's supposed to be laser based, so I hope these scratches don't affect its accuracy. UPDATE: one was DOA. I suggest you look at a different one. ... show more
