- the tabs do get stressed easily due to the pressure of removing and reinserting the handheld.

4 flimsy tabs that hold the 2ds in

One tab broke off the first time I removed the grips even though I was very careful and used no force

I'm returning it for a new one since it really is a comfortable grip, but I wish there was some sort of instruction sheet on how to put the 2ds in it and how to take it out without breaking or weakening those tabs

It is sturdy, but since there have been a few reports that the tabs securing the handheld breaks easily, it has yet to happen on mine - but considering I haven't taken the thing off since I placed it on my 2DS XL, only time will tell.

I was initially concerned that the small plastic tabs holding the 2DS would break if I took my 2DS out too often, but there was no need to worry

Even missing a tab, it holds the console fairly snugly, though I am an adult and do not swing my console around, hitting it on things

The Only issues I have with it are that the tabs that hold the 2ds in break fairly easily and the grip makes it impossible to fit my device in my pocket
