Mine says "Builds Xbox controller collection gradually." I buy my husband a new controller about every 8 months because the sticks start to drift. Maybe it should say Xbox makes shit products.

It sounds like you're just feeding xbox controllers to your husband

Husband starts crying in the background

You should modify the controller or buy a third-party one with Hall-effect or TMR joysticks.

... why do you keep buying a product that is very clearly shit?

You should look into TMR controllers, they are a lifechanger! No need to replace them.
