I've seen a lot of one-star reviews of this saying that it doesn't work, and I was having trouble getting it to work myself, but there's an option (see screenshot) to turn on wired pro controllers that needs to be on for this to be recognized. I thought it was on, but it wasn't and I couldn't get the Switch to recognize it. There is no mention of this setting on the box and no instructions included, so it's easy to miss that this setting needs to be on.
Aside from that, it's great if you have large hands. The grip feels a lot like an XBox One controller and the thumbstick options are nice too. Overall I like the way it feels compared to the regular Joycons, but obviously it's a lot bulkier with this add-on.

Super comfortable for on the go gaming with wrist/hand issues!!!
By Miranda Halligan on July 21, 2021
I absolutely love this controller!!! I’ve had wrist issues for several years to the point where I actually had bones fused in one of my hands just over a year ago. I spend a lot of time playing Switch on the go and often find that my hand is cramping by hour 2 with my regular joycons. This ergonomic set doesn’t do that! I don’t even realize how long I’ve been playing without my hand cramping until that dreaded “low battery” warning pops up. This controller is 100% worth it if you have any hand/wrist issues and game on the go! The only downside honestly is having to transport it in addition to the switch as it won’t fit in my case. I usually have a bag with me though that will hold both so it’s not a big deal 99% of the time. Even the kids I babysit have asked to hold my switch with this grip on and have said it’s really comfortable to hold!!! Edited to add a video of the grip in action! I seriously can’t express how much I love it!

I really like it!
By Ally on August 9, 2021
When I first opened it I was a little worried about the size of it, but once you start playing with it you forget about the size because it is so lightweight and comfortable in the hand. Your switch slides right in and there is a soft backing so your switch will not get scratched up going in and out of the controller. I’ve been using it for longer gaming sessions and my hands and wrists have no discomfort like I sometimes get when using the joycons for a long period of time. Would definitely recommend to someone who likes to play in handheld mode.

I really like how this controller still vibrates like the real ones, but one of my favorite things about it is how fast it charges the switch!! Highly recommend this controller

Comfortable
By Catherine Holland on August 29, 2021
love this grip controller for my switch!! It’s by far more comfortable to hold in my hands over the classic switch controllers. If you are like me and have arthritis in your wrists, the controller is easy to hold for long periods of time.By Catherine Holland on August 29, 2021

It is a great grip controller
By Gustavo on August 25, 2021
I already used it for a while and what I can say. It is a really good grip controller for switch. It came with 3 changeable sticks, I didn't like the small one, but the others are perfect, one like PS4 controller and other like original Switch joycon, you can chose and it is easy and simple to change. The controller is light and comfortable. Easy to install (just plug and play, not extra configuration needed). The material is strong and the buttons are soft to press. Only the digital pad is a little bit noisy, but nothing that disturb me. In other words, it is the best cost benefit than others I used, I recommend.
