    This is the best customizable controller. Makes a great gift and the $30 gift card made it even greater.

    Flexible configurations but grips bubble up

    The ability to adapt this controller to various games by configuring (button mapping) the controller's sticks/buttons is why I bought this. When Microsoft figures out how to keep the handgrips from bubbling up and peeling off or lowers the price, I'll give it 5 stars, Until then, it's three stars. To overcome the hand grip issue, order a cover for the Elite to keep the grips from bubbling up.

    Controller is really great but not use to using it at first, it is a little strain on the hands. Takes a few times to get use to it but worth it!
