    I purchased for one of my grandkids. He really likes this model but I think we bought a defective one. The buttons get stuck so unfortunately we are returning it for another.

    IMO, these controllers are a game changer. I set the paddles in the back to correspond with the A, B, X, Y buttons, so I never have to use my right thumb for those buttons. And you can custom map all the buttons on the controller, and save them as a profile to load into the 3 slots for quick change outs. It's nice for those games that only give you preset control options.
