Has anyone tried these bootleg Wii controllers?

Anyone try these? I'm assuming they're bootleg because of how cheap they are and that they're being shipped from China. My brother just ordered one and is waiting for it to get here. Going by the pics, it looks exactly like the official Wii controller (maybe they stole the photos too) but it could be total crap. If they're halfway decent though, I might get a couple:

I heard they actually work really well, though are not compatable with the motion plus

i saw some of the fake wiimote called Wumotes on dealextreme.com for cheap and alot of ppl say they r good. i also heard that the Nyko brand wiimote is great too.

I've seen and held one. Very Walmart junkbin-ish, but they'll work, I suppose.

Oh boy, I can't wait to try some bootlegs.

Not by coincidence my Mad Catz 360 controller started acting up lately. Hope these don't go bad in two months if you get one.

Word on the street is that they are actually pretty good. I haven't tried them myself but I am tempted to do, that's quite a price difference.

This is cool. I still miss the good old days where the Chinese companies made their own original games for game systems, or crappy ports of known games. Super Mario World for nes, donkey kong country 2 for nes... maybe super smash brothers brawl for ps2, or modern warfare 2 for ds, something crazy like that. Sure it wouldn't look as good, or play as well, but the fact that it was done and you can play it on that system is cool for me.

I'll join the "they're actually pretty good" crowd. A friend of mine have a couple of them, and they do the job just fine. However, as already pointed out, they don't have support for the Motion Plus which is kind of a downer with all the newer games supporting it.
