This wheel works the same as the Official Nintendo Wii Wheel except for one very important thing: there’s no “B” button on the back of the wheel. You’re pressing the “B” button on the Wii remote itself. On the back of the Nintendo wheel, there’s a “B” button that acts as sort of an extension, so your finger can more easily press the button. A minor flaw for some, but a major one for me, especially since I got use to the Nintendo version prior to buying this one.

I purchased this wheel after reading about some of the others difficulty in getting the wii-mote in and out and not having the infrared pass through.
We’ve been completely pleased with this wheel. I would NEVER purchase a wheel without the pass through. This wheel is a little more difficult to get the wii-mote in and out than our Nintendo wheel, but not bad. My 7 year old sometimes asks for help, but most of the time she can get it fine. We do miss the special button on the back from the Nintento wheel that does the brake-slide. On this one you reach through a hole to push the regular button. It’s easier just to put it on anto than manual so you don’t have to reach that button.

We bought this for our daughter, who is just under 4 years old, and she loves it. I like this one better than the official wii wheel, because it’s easier to get the remote in and out of it.

I read that some people didn’t like the B button feature but I had no problem. Its completely easy to use. The only thing that I have noticed is that sometimes the remote doesn’t work through the clear “peep” hole built into the side of wii wheel. When that happens, I just pop the remote up a bit so there is a clear signal from the remote to the console.

This wheel is easier for my larger hands to grip than the Nintendo brand wheel. Of note, there is no B button on the wheel itself. Rather, you directly press the B button on the remote (there is a small cutout on the wheel where the B button is supposed to be). I prefer this because the Nintendo wheel sometimes failed to activate the B button when I pressed it. As for the design, I think the Nintendo wheel looks better. However, in my opinion, function beats form in this case.
