    This controller is awesome. Paddles work well and it is much sturdier than the normal controllers.

    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.

      Hey there,

      Getting used to the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller can take a little while at first, but should be worth the effort in the long run. Hopefully we can help! The following support page can help get your son up to speed in no time: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/elite-controller-info

      Hopefully that helps,
