These are great controllers for the price. They have very usably long cords which negates the lack of wireless mobility. They are not the primary controllers, and perhaps that is why they've tested the time. But I've had them for a while, and they've lasted. I've been happy with them.

Bought this when I realized our guest didn't have a controller to use for Super Smash Bro.
The traditional "controller " feel is a welcomed and familiar feel. The weight is not excessive and the product works. Downside is it is a wired controller, but the length adjusts for that.

We’ve purchased a couple different wired controllers for the switch and this one by far is the best. It’s almost an exact version of the the pro wireless controller in terms of quality and feel.

The buttons aren’t as loud as people say they are. If you have sensitivity to the would of clicking I’d suggest spending the extra money getting the wireless as that one is much quieter.
The cord is really 10 ft long and that’s a huge plus.
I would recommend this if you connect the switch to a screen often as the buttons are much larger than the switch’s.
The triggers are definitely not as sensitive as I would like. But they do well for a just under 20$ controller.
If you don’t want or don’t have the extra money to spend on the pro controller this is very much worth the buy.

Best replacement controller for switch

By far the best replacement controller for the Switch. If you are looking for a replacement controller that doesn’t require charging, this is the one. The controller fits nicely in your hands. My only issue is that I wish the cord was longer. You won’t have “drift” issues with this controller.

Thjs Nintendo Switch controller is easy to use. The controller had a long convenient cord to plug into the Nintendo Switch to play games. This controller is a lot cheaper than the wireless controller.

Love this controller because I like the feel of the larger one instead of the joy con ones. I use this to play with my son instead of the little original controllers. The cable is also quite long, so I just connect it to a usb extension.

Handling the Switch Joycons are not always easy. Having this controller makes playing games easier. I also like having at least one wired controller so I don't have to charge all the time. I also liked the price as most controllers run from $29 and up.

Love this, got tired of the drift from the joy cons. Economical, easy to use, and comes with a long cable so you don’t have to worry about controller battery or charging it. Will need to buy another one for player 2.

You never have to charge this controller since it plugs into the switches USB port. Comfortable in your hands and the buttons press with ease. I would recommend this controller to anyone that needs a wired controller for Switch one.

Great Budget Controller for the Casual Player/Kids

Since I casually play at home and I have bigger hands, something bigger than the standard joy cons plus cheap was something I was looking for. The controller feels a bit cheap but still very sturdy. If you dont mind not having a wireless control and want to save a buck, I recommend this controller. It wont win any awards but with it going on sale occasionally for $10 its a great addition to any Switch users accessory pool.
