Adding the grips really helped me for a few reasons. 1. It gave the controller more surface area to hold. My hands area little bigger than the average person so sometimes it was difficult to easily press buttons without having to shift my hands. 2. The texture is great! It's smooth and soft but still prevents my hands from slipping after some crazy, fast paced gaming. 3. The thumbsticks also helped in a similar way. By adding height, my (bigger) hands were more comfortable and the new, added range of motion really enables more precise movement in game. 4. My controller looks awesome with these things on!

So I've seen these Kontrol Freek kits at my local game stores for a while now, and always thought they seemed like a gimmick. When they went on sale at Best Buy, I figure what's the harm in trying them out? Well long story short, this kit is amazing. The extended range of motion and grip on the analog stick allows for much more precision control. The grips adds just enough cushion without seeming bulky. Overall, long gaming sessions are more comfortable. Definitely not a gimmick. Give them a shot!

My biggest complaint about Playstation controllers was that they feel so small. The grips changed that immensely. They are not sticky to the touch, but are cushioned to allow your hands to lock in. I had to cut some of mine off to fit my charging dock, and it left some sticky residue that required isopropyl alcohol to take off. The thumbstick grips work well, but I'm not a big fan of orange. Oh well, I got this on sale, so I can't really complain!

The Grip makes the controller feels better and the thumb sticks works really Good! I have to use them all time. The only cons i have is that the right thumb stick slips off at times. Works better if your thumbs stick on the controllers are in good conditions. If not when you put the sticks on they will slip off.

Having owned other KontrolFreeks I expected to like this combo pack. The controller grips add a nice level of cushion and the control stick extenders allow for better grip and more precise control. Installation was a breeze with the included instructions. If you don't want to spend hundreds on a custom controller, give these a try. You won't be disappointed.
