KIWI design Comfort Head Strap Accessories Compatible with Quest 2, Elite Strap Replacement for Enhanced Support

Bought this for my son. He loves it!

When I first got my Quest 2 headset the straps that came with it gave me headaches every time I played and severely limited my play time unless I was feeling stubborn enough to deal with the pain. Itd be a safe bet after 2-3 hours of play (basically nothing for me), and sometimes much less than that, Id have a pretty severe headache for the rest of the day. I installed this strap setup and the headaches are pretty much entirely gone. Ive played for at least one full charge every day since I got this product and played for ~12 hours (including a charge break) the day before writing this review and the difference is beyond night and day. The worst thing Ive experienced is occasionally a hair might get tugged but that has happened maybe once or twice so far. The strap and back pad are nice and soft. The adjustment is easy and doesnt change with gameplay (unlike the original strap) unless you change it yourself. The adjustment is controlled by a dial on the plastic section behind the back pad and clicks when tightening. The up and down pivot ability is also helping to keep the lenses cleaner too since as advertised you put it straight on then lower the strap setup rather than sliding it all down over your face and hair. Installation was very easy too. The worst part for me was the visor removal but thats just because I always do things like that slowly and deliberately to help make sure I dont break anything. Its really simple and easy to get it done. Its also making the use of a link cable easier as the side portions are flexible plastic allowing much better use of my cables provided retention strap. There is no pressure at all on the sides of your head and the back pad cradles the back of your head in its soft foam while the top strap sits like the original but is also made of that same foam. The artificial leather covering the foam it also very soft and smooth. The whole thing is significantly more comfortable and it does a significantly better job of distributing pressure without making you feel like your head is going to pop. It also adds a little weight to the back of your head giving a bit of counterbalance the old elastic straps couldnt provide. Ive mostly played Hotdogs, Horseshoes, & Hand Grenades (which is an absolutely fantastic game btw) and some Pavlov since I got it and tend to be quick and aggressive with movements including turning. Provided its properly adjusted it doesnt move. Still have to try Blade & Sorcery with it but I have no doubt itll do every bit as well with that too. The only real issue I can think of is if you bend down too far and its loose enough theres a risk of it falling off. Just dont try to look between your legs and keep it properly adjusted and you should be good lol. Id rather deal with this minor risk than the relentless pressure of the original straps any day. This product made my Quest 2 much more playable and fun. Do yourself a favor and ditch the elastic straps your headset likely came with and buy one of these today.

I needed to replace the original headstrap, so I picked his up and absolutely love it. Its comfortable, is easy to install, and sits firmly. Great product.

For me, this completes the quest, balancing it and doubling its battery life. Greatly increases comfort, and frees you from the tether for hours more than you would normally get. Definitely worth getting. Does add some weight on your head, but I dont find it bothersome as it also improves the weight distribution.

This works great! I was having problems with the unit sliding down during BeatSabre and I was having neck pain from the weight distribution. This distributes the weight of the unit evenly and it stays in place. I was a little apprehensive about the installation but like everything else in life... theres a YouTube video for that!

Far easier to adjust and distributes the weight more evenly across the head. My one issue is that it makes my glasses dig into my face a bit but thats fixable by just turning the knob a little bit.

I have bought a few different products from KIWI and theyve all significantly improved my experience with the Quest 2. If youre someone who tries out VR once a month, maybe you dont need this. But if youre in there a few times a week youll probably notice how painful the stock headstrap is. I found after six months that the pivoting part of the strap was starting to loosen up and no longer held the Quest 2 up above my head...I am gentle with my equipment but I use my Quest 2 every day. The customer service team was really quick to respond and remedy the situation. Overall I would recommend a number of their products, including this one, for greatly improved comfort in VR!

Ok

I got this because I was having trouble keeping the headset from getting blurry during my work out routines. It would shift and then everything would get blurry. The elastic straps that come with the Quest are hard to adjust, especially from person to person using it. This headset is awesome. Easy to install, took me about 5 mins. It makes it super simple to adjust the sizing of the headset and you can easily switch users and adjust quickly. Through my workout the fit was snug and it didnt move. The padding added to the top of the head strap and the back of the head makes it feel so secure. I also love that you can have the option to just flip the headset up if you need to get a drink or see something quickly. This really is a must have if you spend any time on the Quest headset!

If you only have one VR set this is especially nice. My husband and I have to switch off often and this head set allows you to adjust way faster and easier. Plus it is comfortable. Having the crank option to tighten the backside is also a nice addition. If you ever used a hard helmet or climbing helmet you get what I mean.
