Yea, my Logitech stuff has always broken quickly. I got a Death Adder a couple years ago, and it broke within a year. The scroll wheel broke within a couple months...I wouldn't say to not get it, though. My mouse was probably just crap. Right now I have a Steel Series Sensei, I really like it. Custom colors and shite. If you're able to fork up around $80-$90 rather than just $60, I'd reccommend the Sensei.
