SteelSeries Rival 600
Inconvenienced
Issue #1: silicon grips The silicon side grips are glued using poor agent: after about a year, they'll start moving around causing inconveniences in grip. The good thing is that this is a warranty case, but any replacement would suffer the same issue, so I would advice removing the original glue and gluing it back using epoxy. Issue #2: lift-off sensor The high precision of the sensor is its downside as well: even if your surface seems perfectly flat, it would register lift-offs here and there with the minimum lift-off distance set. Issue #3: side-button design The size and placement of the side buttons make them not very convenient to use except the middle button: the back button requires the thumb to be moved back significantly, and the front button is not reachable from the default grip position, so you need to shift your whole palm a bit forward to click the button.
If you glue the side grips using a proper agent, adjust the lift-off distance to avoid false positive lift-offs, and ignore the side buttons, this is the most reliable mouse out of those I had experience with (Razer Mamba TE, Logitech G502, and Logitech G903).

Steelseries Arctis Pro Wireless
Broken
Plastic where the handbands connect to the cups just broke. Headphone was partially dangling.
Great sound quality, love the swappable batteries, love the dual channel audio for game and voice.

Faulty Materials
Glue from the side pads went bad (after 4y) and starting slowly flowing out. Sticky spots and dirt sticking to it as a result. Glue cleanup was not easy.
Otherwise impeccable, looks like new. Support sent new ones, even way out of warranty.

The left earpiece hinge is beginning to get loose, and I can hear something rattling around inside the headset. Everything seems to work fine, though
They're fairly comfortable headphones with a good sound quality in my opinion. Them being wireless is a nice bonus, too.

SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless
Wear and Tear
The DPI selector broke after 3 clicks. Battery life is terrible if you want LEDs on, it will only last 5 hours at most as a NEW mouse.
Bluetooth connectivity is nice. The battery will last a 4-6 days if you turn off the LEDs in the mouse.
