1. You wont regret this!

   Works like a charm! It prevents the plunger from hitting the plastic bottom of the button, which makes that loud clack sound. Note it also reduces the engage distance by 1mm. Buttons have a spongy feel when the washers are installed, however personally they don't feel too bad. Definitely recommend this if you don't want to disturb roommates. Unknown on Aug 28th 2019

2. Much more quieter

   Didn’t measure the dB levels but just for listening before and after, it is at least 60% more quieter than before. No more high pitches button clicking sound.
   
   Impressed.
   
   Pity these don’t come in 24mm, hand to cut a few to fit this size but it still worked well. Unknown on Aug 8th 2019

3. Great for my Sanwa & my Hayabusa matte - 1+ year of use

   I have used these in both my Sanwa and Hayabusa matte buttons for over a year now. They work great. Reducing the hard-tapping noise by at least 40%. I don’t notice any issues engaging the switches.
   
   However, the plunger will now ‘hit’ the foam pad rather than the true plastic bottom. At first, it feels like you must press the buttons harder than usual.
   
   That is a false assumption.
   The switch engages before the plunger normally bottoms-out.
   In fact, when combined with the short-throw of the newer Hayabusa matte buttons; they seem razor sharp and fast! BOTH of their bottom-out is reduced by the pads; and the travel is short by its design on the Hayabusa
   
   Here is my example, for the purpose of my illustration:
   
   In a stock Sanwa imagine the button travel from top to bottom as : 2mm down to 1mm down to 0mm= (engage) down to -1mm=(bottom-out) then return.
   These pads remove the -1mm area.
   
   Now, combined with the shorter Hayabusa buttons AND these pads: 1mm down to 0mm= (engage AND bottom-out) then return.
   
   I highly recommend these for both Sanwa and Hayabusa matte owners. James Patrus on Jun 12th 2019

4. Even better than I expected - 1 year + of use

   I chose to wait to write my review.
   I have used these silence pads in both my Sanwa and Hayabusa matte buttons for over a year now. One both PS4 and in classic HRAP Sanwa’s on PS1 and PS2 sticks. They work great. Reducing the hard-tapping noise by at least 40%. I don’t notice any issues engaging the switches.

5. Nice Quiet Sound#2

   like them,but they should have something sticky bottom of the washers. Unknown on May 28th 2019

6. barely does anything

   all it did for me was make the sound less sharp but more blunt while being just as loud. doesnt actually silence not even close but it MIGHT make it less annoying to you. Unknown on May 9th 2019

7. Silent inputs for the night warrior.

   The silencer washers from Focus Attack provide a great way to reduce noise output without reducing input feel.
   
   While they do decrease the "throw" of the button press when hitting the actuator, for some reason that still doesn't seek to detract from the respsonive of the button itself.
   
   as matter of fact, I found that the shorter button press felt more natural when performing actions with tight execution.(Kazuya's EWGF for example) This might just be a personal preference, but it just goes to show how well these washers preserve the input feel.
   
   I'd definitely recommend these as a alternative to buying Hori or Sanwa silenced buttons and i might just buy another set for my tournament stick too! Ethan Morse on Jan 22nd 2019

8. Great!

   They work on Crown buttons too! Wlouie on Nov 28th 2018

9. Exactly what I was looking for.

   Cheap, easy install and great results.
   Makes the annoying clicky-clicky sound go away + I feel like the buttons become ever so slightly more sensitive which is a plus in my book! M. Obscure on Sep 4th 2018

10. Worked perfect on a Mayflash F500

    These worked great with the default Mayflash F500 buttons. I bought the washers to last until my Sanwa silenced pushbuttons arrived, but these worked well enough I probably didn't need the upgrade. demongund on Aug 29th 2018
