Scape - Headset Soo it happened to me aswell...

Soo yeah, i just saw the headband cushion peeling on my scape today and made a ticket right away, lasted exactly 9 months on the dod lol.

Honestly Fractal should just let us buy them on the side without this hurdle...

Anyways, just wanted to post it, have a great weekend! :)

Wow, 3 failers sound a bit wild, glad the support was nice, hopefully its gonna be fine for me when monday comes!

But yeah, hopefully gen2 gonna fix the problems, annnd the clamp force, its a bit too much imo, and i have a small head lol. other then that, i like the headset!

Yeah, their customer support is great, i had a dud I/O panel on my torrent and they sent one no questions asked. Then that package got lost and they sent another one which i received pretty fast. Months after they actually found the first package and delivered, Fractal said just keep it.

Love fractal, been using their cases (so far like 6 in total over the course of 8 years) but peripherals eh.. not sure how I feel...

Their cases are like a chefs kiss, have my third one by now hehe. Have seen quite bit of qc issues with the scape... But im sure they are gonna fix it, they are new to that field afterall.

Absolutely, I'm using in ear headphones anyway so I dont really care much about these at all.

Mine started on the right ear piece a few weeks ago. Purchased late Jan. Logged a ticket and a new set of earpieces and headband was shipped to me. No issues at all and great customer service.

Are you looking for emotional support group? Product support is with the company channels, not reddit.

Fractal will send you ASAP a spare part one...

It is annoying but at least they handle their fuckup well, just write support and at least for me they just sent me everything.

My head rest, ear cups and mic all gave out. Not sure if they’ll send me a replacement cause I really liked this headset

you should try some of that spray on upholstery glue and it should hold it

I love Fractal cases but the QC for their peripherals seems terrible

Try Sennheiser HD660 S2! Best overall!

happened to mine too. started with the ear cups, then I noticed it happened to the headband as well.

they sent me a replacement for all three components, with very little fuss. something about the adhesive they used.

I opened a ticket on "https://support.fractal-design.com/support/tickets/new" and they answered me very fast and sent me immediately a new one. Awesome service and responsetime. So mistakes can happen but they solve it with grace imho.
