very nice but ......
Ok I purchased these for my two DS4 controllers that came with my PS4. As many can attest the rubber on the sticks wear quickly. Mine have torn half way around each stick so I purchased these before mine fell off completely. When I went to install them, the first one went on as expected and fits nicely. The second does not have enough of a lip to go over the stick. I checked the other two (package comes with 4) and one of the others was perfect. I installed on one controller is perfect again. The other two do not have enough lip to cover the sticks with the OG rubber still on. I tried removing the rubber from the sticks leaving them just hard plastic, then the other two covers had enough lip to cover the stick but were too loose to stay on. Easy fix by putting a drop of superglue on the top of each stick and then installing the covers and now the covers stay in place. So now both my controllers have the new stick covers.The covers themselves are quite comfortable. I in fact like them much better than the stock feel. Between the two controllers, one installed over the rubber and one installed without rubber and using superglue, I am hard pressed to say which I prefer. They do feel slightly different but only slightly. I think it is just the minuscule height difference that I feel. I'm debating if I want to remove the rubber from the other controller and install with superglue also.Having said all that....I dropped a star due to the fact that there seems to be a quality control issue due to the fact that 2 fit as described and two had to be modified to work. If the manufacture reads this I would suggest that the lip on these be extended by double with a smaller opening so it would wrap the top of the sticks and then I would say they would be perfect. As they are now, better quality control would go a long way.

An improvement over normal thumbsticks, with a catch
In a sentence: If you're looking to add a little tactile grip to your XBox One controller's thumbsticks, this is a very good option.In full: So thanks to some dramatic thumb pressing, I actually tore my controller's left thumbsitck pad. Being me, I played through the issue until the pad completely detached from the stick. I hit Amazon looking for a repair kit, because while Krazy Glue was an option, I wanted another layer between the glue, my old pad, and a new pad. And that is exactly what these "Analog Thumb Grip Stick Covers" are: they fit over your old stick's pad. To be clear, if your old pad has been completely destroyed, these DO NOT REPLACE THE OLD PAD, they merely fit over it.As for the pads themselves: they fit somewhere between snugly and a little loose: popping them on and off is easy. The silicone seems very durable, and there's no odd smell. They look vaguely like Oreos, which could be a plus or a minus. The surface is textured by by a lattice of little bumps. These bumps offer an increase in tactile response and feel pleasant to the touch. In fact, the only thing holding me back from giving them five stars is the bumps seem to accrue a little of your finger's oils, so from time to time they feel a little damp or slick. A quick dab of a shammy appears to de-slick them, but it's a little annoying.To sum: well-made, easy to use, great value, and almost top-notch comfort.Used with: XBox One standard wireless controller.

Absolutely No Grip. Also did not fit.
I don't know about everyone else, but these do NOT serve their intended purpose. The "grip" bumps make my fingers SLIDE more than grip. If you have the slightest amount of moisture on your fingertips, they're worthless.They also did not fit my controller (XBOX 360, advertised to fit). I first tried to replace the original thumbstick rubber caps, but these were too big. I then tried to fit these *overtop* the original ones (against my better judgement, as the old ones were tearing) and they hardly stretched over but were still somehow shifting side-to-side.Overall, this is just a cheap product. I certainly got what I paid for so don't make the same mistake I did.

PS4 controller attacked by vicious puppy, saved by Insten.
New puppy got to my PS4 controller and completely tore off the rubber on the thumbsticks and also chewed on them quite a bit. Not too fun to play with that way so I was looking for nice and cheap covers and found these. They look great and they actually feel better than the originals, I like the nubs that are all over the top. Only downside is they're a little loose but that's because there's no rubber underneath and I was expecting that. They don't come off though, I just can twist them around which is no big deal.

Works great for us
Like others, my original PS4 controllers' grips were shredding. We had one partially torn off, and others just starting to crack open. These covers popped on over all of them fairly easily, and have been working fine ever since. Nothing has slipped around or fallen off. We are not heavy users however, so ymmv. I purchased these largely to keep the kids' friends from picking off more of the original covers, since they were the main culprits.

Not as advertised
They don't go on the Xbox one controller like they say they do, you have to shove and stretch them on. The main reason I don't like them though is the fact that they have no indentation for your thumbs to grab onto, they're relying solely on the rubber to keep your sweaty thumbs from slipping off. It makes it a lot different to play games which is uncomfortable and I don't recommend buying them. Find some grips with an indentation and you'll be golden!

Not worth it
These were not a tight fit so it made the entire experience of moving the analog stick awkward. Tried these instead of replacing the entire analog stick on my xbox controller. These were trash so I bought the new analog stick and replaced, that worked great!

Kind of a pain to put on
UPDATE: After using these for a couple weeks I can provide an update. They are still comfortable to use but they’re pretty loose on an Xbox one controller. I’ve actually had them pop off once mid game. Really wish they fit tighter like my old ones on my other controllers. These seem pretty comfortable to use but haven’t used them much yet. So far my only complaint is that the skirt around the bottom that hold them on the joysticks is a bit on the short side making them more difficult than others to apply. Will update after I’m able to use them some more.

Slightly to big.
Now I'm giving it a one star but it could be a five star depending on why you get this.The rubber on my xbox one slim controller broke but only on my left thumb stick.I put both on and the one on the right fits almost perfect, slightly lose but it will hold its place regardless.However the left stick which broke on me , it does NOT fit at all and easily falls off.If you lost the rubber that's on it like I did. You will want another type.However if you have it than this will work just fine and still be easy to remove with no damage.

Perfect
Fit perfectly over the analog stick, I bought because my dog chewed the controller, I put this over and it's perfect, like new now !

They are ok, just not great. Uneven edges and very loose fit
They're not great, the edges are not cut properly and looks very sloppily made. The grips also don't fit the nintendo switch thumb sticks very well, it feels very loose and can easily be taken off. They are still usable but very low quality.

Absolutely awful
Worst things I've ever had the displeasure of buying. Came late and don't even fit properly. Putting them on is a struggle and keeping them on? Darn near impossible.

Awesome
Work surprisingly well for the price, been using them for my xbox one controllers since I received them like 3 months ago. Never fall off during gameplay in my experience
