I've had one since last July. It was doing great, no broken
bungees, everything was fine. It did finally break a few
weeks ago, but only because of my three year old son always
*** on it while climbing onto the computer chair. I've
got a new one now and I'm sure it will last for a long time
(I don't let him touch it anymore :) ).
The ACT Labs wheels are very well made. The pots do start
spiking rather quickly. They don't wear out, they just get
dirty. I keep a can of WD-40 nearby which fixes the problem.
An electronics cleaner would probably be a better solution
than the WD-40, but I haven' tried that yet.
