This is the first arcade stick I have ever owned, and it's met all my expectations and then some.
A little warning for those using it with PC/Steam like I am, you need to go into the steam settings and manually enable its use as a generic controller, and then map the buttons to XB controller inputs, or PS4 inputs accordingly before you're able to use it.
Once you do that, the stick feels great. It's pretty light, well sized, and doesn't move around a lot on your lap or on a desk. The clamps are an interesting feature, but I would like it if they were removable since I don't use them - not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. A great buy overall!

Very responsive stick and good feeling buttons. Despite its size its bigger than I expected and certainly a lot more weighty than I thought it would be. Highly recommend this product since even as a starter stick, for this price the quality is amazing.

This was my first fight stick I bought to use while playing Tekken 7, had it for a bit now and I would highly recommend getting this if you are dropping inputs or just feel the need to get one, great cheep entry level.

The Qanba Carbon is great arcade stick for its price. For 60 USD, you're getting an entry-level stick which can be easily modded if you ever feel the need to change out the stock buttons or joystick. The Carbon is also able to calibrate itself with a number of fighting games, which is pretty neat.
One more thing to add was the shipping. It came just after two days of ordering, which was pleasantly surprising!

Stick works great for the price paid. Just wish there was a cheaper shipping option to Canada. I'm very happy with this purchase nonetheless.

This is a great arcade stick for the price, whether you're a beginner or just don't want to spend too much on an arcade stick. The stock parts aren't the greatest but that's to be expected at this price range, but it definitely gets the job done. Thankfully this stick is easy to mod so you could always go that route later on which is what I personally did (replaced buttons and joystick with Sanwa parts) and still spend under $100 which isn't bad at all. Great product, 4.5/5 stars.

This is my first ever arcade stick which I bought to practice playing Tekken 7, and I have to say that this is an investment I will never regret.
The quality of the stick for its small price results in nothing short of high-end. The buttons are reactive, the stick easily maneuverable and the overall product durable.
I highly recommend this stick for beginners such as myself as a gateway to purchasing more expensive and higher quality sticks if needed for further fighting-game investments. If that is true for myself, I know for sure that eightarc is a company I can trust.

Great entry level stick for the price. Case is decent and can be easily modded. The included clamps are a nice touch. However, I'm not a fan of the stock Qanba stick and buttons. Joystick feels a bit loose and buttons feel mushy compared to their Sanwa counterparts. Still, not too shabby given the cost of this stick. I replaced with sanwa parts and overall I still spent less than a $100, not too shabby. 4.5/5

Giving it a 4. It's a great beginner stick don't get me wrong, but the stick (not the buttons) is starting to fail after about a month; probably got unlucky. When its in perfect working order, the stick is awesome. Hence one star off.
Since it's easily modifiable, I planned to replace the stick with a sanwa part; was planning to do this later than sooner.

My first fight stick. It feels great and seems responsive enough. I have nothing to compare it too but I'm really pleased with the performance for the price! My only gripe is that the buttons--possibly their springs--feel weak. They feel like they have been overused that are giving out and have a minor squeek. I haven't had that being a performance issue to me.
Great stick! 4.5/5
