We’re sorry to hear about the stick drift and battery drain, as that’s not the experience we want for our customers. We recommend recalibrating the sticks in the Nintendo Switch settings and using fresh alkaline or fully charged rechargeable AA batteries. If the drift continues, the controller may require warranty support. Kindly submit a request at https://www.powera.com/support/submit-case-request/ Thank you!

Broke within hours of being used
Our son loves Kirby and this was his birthday present. Extremely disappointed. It lost connection and could not be restored. Controller broke within a week and customer service gave us the runaround, not taking responsibility.

SEVERE DRIFTING
Very overpriced for its low quality. The joysticks won’t stop drifting even after I returned and got a new one.

Horrible delivery
Delivery by Target was a disaster, delivery driver refused to leave my package at receiving and I had to leave work to pick it up. If you buy from target be wary of their delivery partners

Had controller for one day....drifting already
Connected easily, worked well for a few hours. I didn’t store it carelessly. I left it out on the table overnight so it’s not like something could’ve been pressing on it and started the drift- just spontaneously stopped working on its own. I cannot scroll to the right and it is stuck in a permanent left scroll on the left side of the controller. I’d love to return it, but I accidentally ripped the box when taking the sticker seal off, and I used it so pretty sure I don’t quality

Bad Service
I ordered this product online and it read that 1 item was in stock at the store that I ordered it. That store location did not have the product, and it took two people to tell me this information after I ordered the item hours before.

Will be returning
I got this because a game I got required a controller. This is A VERY VERY CHEAPLY CONTROLLER. I bought this 2 days ago, after the first 2 hours of play, one of the buttons completely stopped working. I was playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure. Nothing crazy. I’m definitely not hard on my equipment, this is just a really REALLY crappy controller. Will be getting a refund.

Not recommended for switch lite
After buying it worked just fine. But only after a short 2-3 weeks it’s not working, I can get it to move through my list of games but in game play it stopped working. Tried disconnecting and re-syncing it didn’t work. Complete waste of purchase.

Great Product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works well with the Switch Lite and other models (we have Switch Lite). My son likes the way it fits his hands, and the buttons work well. Uses AA batteries, which last a while under normal usage. Overall well made product.

Buy buy buy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm def going to stick with this controller from now on!! I've bought 8 different generic controllers on here this year (honestly within 8 months) and they all broke!! I HATE having to pay so much for the Nintendo brand wireless one bc they don't even last long enough for the price at all!! This isn't rechargeable...(2) AA batteries, but i don't mind bc the batteries take longer to die and no worries with the batterie burning up!! I dropped this the other day and i got real scared nc I'm so tired of my controllers breaking... but it's fine!! Now, some controllers aren't really great for fast paced fighting games but this one most def is!! I play a lot of fortnite and i actually like this better than the Nintendo (bc the joysticks aren't super sensitive like Nintendos, but also aren't too stiff... just right)!!! So, skip all the knock offs on here bc i swear I probably tried all of them if not really close and not one lasted longer than a month!! Response time is great!
