Review on ๐Ÿพ Enhanced Gaming Experience: GeekShare 4PCS Silicone Cat Paw JoyCon Thumb Grip Set for Switch / OLED / Switch Lite - Pink Blue by Jay Matlock

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Cute, slightly bulbous, difficult to clean

I am very happy to have these little feet for my rear derailleur. They arrived quickly and well packaged and I love being able to use both white and colored backgrounds. They came through fairly easily after I found out I had to flip them over to properly seal the joycon pads. The edges curl slightly around the joycon, so they can be tricky. They've fallen out a few times when removing the console from the travel case, so be careful not to lose them. Now I was a bit disappointed with how they matched our Joycon. I don't know if that's normal for covers (cause that's all we ever had), but they sit almost like a little dome on top of a joystick. However, I will say that the pads on your joycon have already come loose. We just bought a new set due to drift and the pads fit exactly the same. Having fairly small hands doesn't bother me, but my finances don't like the bulge on these guys. Not sure if others with big hands would agree. If you have kids or have small hands like me then a bump might be in order. If this confuses you, I've seen other brands with flatter designs that might work better. I've also found these little bugs to be difficult to keep clean. We typically wipe down the joycons every few weeks to keep them clean and functional. For some reason these covers attract dirt like a magnet! I don't know exactly what silicone they are made of (they are very soft to the touch) but it's a little annoying. Of course, I don't think the relief textures of pawprints help with the build. I've found that lightly scraping with the back of a butter knife removes most of the dirt, but most of our dirt is just surface dust. I have no idea how easy it would be to scrape off bits of food or anything like that. If you have small ones, keep that in mind. Overall I'm happy with the purchase, although I'll look for a better, flatter fit next time. but it's a little annoying. Of course, I don't think the relief textures of pawprints help with the build.
