I purchased one of each of the different colors so that my kids could distinguish "theirs" from their siblings' controllers. They look great and have a nice feel. The only issue is that, since they must be removed for battery changes, in a matter of a few weeks, one has torn a little. Still usable, but one can see that after several battery changes, it won't be holding up well.

you should quit selling this product, it was totally unsatisfactory.....

i ordered two and both tore while trying to cover controlers. ugh!!!!!!!!

shpping and handling were to high for one ounce of this junk.......Bargaincell- 2-Piece Value Combo Pack of Permium Protective Silicon / silicone Skin Cover Case for Nintendo Wii Remote Controller & Nunchuk ( Black + Clear)

DO NOT BUY--these are cheap and very thin. Both of them tore before I even got them over half of the wii remote. Very poor quality and not even worth a penny. I ended up throwing both of them out! You get what you pay for--spend the extra money and get the better quality wii remote skins!

This cover is great! It protects the remote AND nunchuck from dirt and scratches, while providing an easy way to distinguish which controller is which. I've seen the other reviews, and agree that it is a perfect fit. I do not have the problem with it tearing because I have rechargable batteries that use an induction charger, so I do not have to remove the covers at all. I would not recommend this to someone who is NOT using an induction charger since it will inevitably tear after a while of removing it and putting it back on. The nunchuck cover was a little more difficult to put on than the remote cover, but other than that I have no complaints.

This skin is a thin silicone back cover, with a separate front cover which is attached. The fit on the remote is perfect. However, the adhesion between the two parts of the skin is less than satisfactory. The joint fractured on the third application. Which brings me to the second issue.

The skin is excellent, when applied (the first time, only). However, if used with a charger (rechargeable batteries for the Wii remote controller), the skin must first be removed. The skin is sufficiently thin that it could have been designed to fit on the charger without removal, but the knobs on the back (to enhance grip?) prevent contact of the remote with the battery charger contacts. (OK, I guess I could complain about the charger design, which has contacts that require very close proximity of the remote to the charger.) Clearly, and regrettably, the skin was not designed for use in the charger. (I did cut a window in the back of the skin for use with the charger contacts.) Thus, it must be removed to charge the remote. Which brings us to the first defect -- it cannot be R&R'd without destruction. This issue will also be important if primary cell batteries are used -- which need to be changed periodically.

These were inexpensive, so I chalk it up to experience, and continue to use the Nintendo-supplied silicone covers, removing them to charge the remotes.

Two stars for a perfect fit. No more because when the remote controller is either recharged, or primary cell batteries reinstalled, the cover will tear.
