User Reviews
Great even for first-time leverless users!
I was not used to playing on pad, so I started looking for a leverless controller and found Rushbox. Since this was my first leverless controller, I was a little worried at first, but I was drawn to the concept of having many buttons and being able to freely change the layout. I was especially interested in the palm buttons. Of course, it depends on the person, but I was able to get used to it in about a week.

Thin, light, and sturdy
I really like how thin it is. It is compact enough to use both on a desk and on my lap. The buttons are easy to press, and I think the layout makes it easy to respond quickly.
ガヤン 様
I set it up so every button can be used!
The buttons I want to use change depending on the game, so I set it up so that every button can be used. Being able to switch profiles by game is really helpful, and the setup was easy. I also appreciate being able to save up to four profiles!
The spacing between the buttons is just right—not too wide and not too narrow.
For reference, my hands and finger length are probably about average for an adult male. On a piano, I can just barely reach from C to E with my thumb and pinky.
みゃみゅたまご 様
I am satisfied with it.
I switched from a low-cost Chinese leverless controller. The reason I chose this was the freedom of the button layout. In particular, I had been looking for a product with buttons around the lower thumb jump button and an extra upper button for the right index finger. I used those on my previous budget leverless controller, but there were very few higher-end products with that kind of layout. Since Rushbox can be customized, I was able to achieve the layout I wanted and transition very smoothly.
Of course, the buttons and overall feel are also better than what I used before. My previous low-cost leverless controller did not last very long, so I think I will be satisfied with this product in that regard as well.

It is worth more than the price.
I have been using it for more than half a year, and the button layout is excellent. It fits my hands very well. I also like that buttons can be added. There are holes exactly where I find myself thinking, “I wish there were a button here,” so it is easy to add buttons right away.
I also like the look of Rushbox Lite. The black-based design suits my taste more. As for durability, it is quite sturdy. Even when I have accidentally hit it a bit too hard, it has continued to work without any issues. Of course, hitting it is not a good thing to do.
りくすつ 様
A practical leverless controller for real matches
The response and control are outstanding. The buttons are easy to press, and the responsiveness is excellent. In particular, my perfect parry success rate has improved significantly, so I am very satisfied. It is also nice that it is less tiring even during long play sessions.
Slide inputs are also comfortable. The button texture feels good, and slide inputs are extremely smooth. I can perform moves like Tatsumaki Senpukyaku during combos consistently without mistakes.
When using it on my lap, the stability is easily the best among the leverless controllers I have tried. Drive Impact with the palm button is also very easy to press, and it feels practical for actual matches.
