    I bought this on clearance for 12 dollars and I love it. The feel is just amazing. Playing switch games that dont require motion control are much better.

    This is a good budget friendly option for the Pro Switch controller. I'm sure the Pro feels a little nicer, but we bought 2 of these for our kids, and we've heard no complaints.

    Great inexpensive addition to the switch. It’s not wireless which you can get for about double the cost but with a screen size smaller than an iPad on the switch do you really need it?

    Good controller that is much cheaper than buying the wireless version and it has a nice 10 foot cord, which has allowed 2 kids to play with the wires and 2 to use the wireless. Good bang for the buck.

    I needed a real controller to play the Switch. This pad feels great and is responsive. The kids liked it so much I had to buy a second one. Is wired so it does not need batteries or recharging.

    This remote was a great purchase. My 6 and 8 year old found it very easy to use. They prefer to use this remote over the ones that came with the system. Great buy and price point.

    This controller is durable and effective. I would recommend this to anyone who can sit about 7 feet from their switch console since you can not unplug the device and play. But it is worth it if you don’t mind the cord

    Had to get this because I don't find the switch square controller comfortable to hold. I was more familiar with this type controller and even though it is corded still prefer it over the wireless.

    Can't speak to durability, but for the price I should have bought them a long time ago! My hands are too big for the lil switch remotes.

    Cheap switch controller, it’s not a wireless controller, but the cord it comes with is long enough. The controller feels good in the hands, it’s also really comfortable. Overall amazing controller.

    Excellent responsiveness and control for a controller that doesn't break the bank! I've used this for Luigi's Mansion and Smash Brothers so far and had a fantastic time in both games.

    Feels a bit cheap but works great and long cable. I like how the cable port is built deep in the controller which protects it from kids bending the metal connection.
