It's what I have, for 1/4 the price of the Index it's hard to argue with. The only issue I have had with it so far is that after a couple hours it does start to get uncomfortable (although that's with glasses), and the hand tracking is mildly less great than the rigs where you set up room sensors. I haven't had any real issues with it though from a gameplay perspective.
It's good. I don't have any compatibility issues, and tracking is decent. Obv. not as good as the other choices, but pretty good for that price. My only negative comes with the fit of the headset. It is a true PC headset though, you can mod it pretty easily to improve comfort.
Honestly, it depends on the game and the person but you'll get used to some games really quickly others not so much. Sometimes it's because the implementation is a bit rough rather than your endurance being low.
That's basically how I want to setup the play space, kicking away the chair whenever I put my headset on and play in VR. I've yet to take the exact measurement of how much space I have but I think that I'm around 1m x 1.5m (Even 2.5m in lenght, my only issues is the width) without anything around my arm. Should be good enough...I have a Standing area that's tiny only about 1.2m by 1.5m and it seems fine for the games i play. Basically i have the area in front of my PC Desk when i move the chair out of the way. It's not ideal but it works.
I have my lighthouses up on decorator's stands with camera grips as they take up less space than a tripod so i won't kick them and i don't have any shelves to put them on anyway. I have these but others are available

According to the Vive FAQ:
For room scale VR you will need a minimum of 2 meters by 1.5 meters of free space (6.5ft x 5ft), and the maximum distance between base stations is 5 meters (16ft).
In addition to room scale VR, Vive supports seated and standing VR experiences, both of which do not have a minimum space requirement.

Awesome, the positive early reviews of Link pushed me over the edge into getting the Quest. I figure the tech can probably only get better from here. My wife will mostly want to use it wireless for Beat Saber but the option to plug it in for more in-depth PCVR was exactly what I wanted.
American Amazon, shipping included for my country. $229 without shipping.
WoW! You are correct. Shipping is "just" $72. Total price is $301, which is currently ~275€.
Well that makes no sense. Don't you live in the UK or am I remembering incorrectly?hooooooow? shipping from amazon US here is like $120 alone
So some of us could get you a Samsung HMD Odyssey Plus Mega Ultra 64 (some companies and their naming schemes...). Or at least make it a bit cheaper.

Are you crazy? I barely made it through the normal version!New VR owners, I recommend Alien Isolations VR mod. It's actually pretty good.

This Mod brings current generation VR support to the game Alien: Isolation - Nibre/MotherVR
Is the Spice & Wolf VR thingy any good? I remember liking the Anime, like 10+ years ago.
The part here where he uses a chair to reach up onto a ledge, finds himself just barely out of reach of an ammo crate, and then takes out his weapon to nudge it off is some good shit.
Or him forcing the body into the closet. Like what?!
