Is the Xbox One controller defective?

I've had three regular controllers and two of them have broken (one drifting and one the buttons broke and my original Day One controller is still going strong). The build quality on Xbox One controllers seem woefully inadequate, which is disappointing considering the 360 controller was great from the get-go.

However, both me and my cousin each bought an Xbox One Elite controller and so far we haven't had a single problem with them...even when I dropped mine by accident into a 400 degree oven!

That's some crazy bounce. How'd that happen?

This issue happens with my 360 controller. MS must use cheaper joystick parts. Or the plastic just wears out quick. Even during when they build the joystick.

Well I found the hard way that chatting with people in party chat and taking cookies out of the oven do not mix well. I ended up snagging the mic cord on an edge while putting some cookies in the oven and the controller went flying into the oven (one of the thumbsticks was in the back of the oven for almost five minutes before I could fish it out).
