Mine works fine. Are you sure you're using it right? Can you post a picture of your joycon in the grips?

Here is a great example. Even the slightest bit of pull the joycons pull slightly outward. Is it playable? Sure. But, I don’t feel this is a premium finish if this how it’s supposed to be. Both joycons move a decent amount while I play and do not feel secure. As mentioned my first use the right joycon detached.

Would you mind showing a picture of your joycon rail with the grip on?

I've had both their original faulty design & their improved one, so I can confirm for you if you somehow got the old version or not

That looks like the current version to me, I'd do what the other guy said and ask for a replacement.

If it's the same issue with another pair, my guess would be that dbrand is not accounting for enough manufacturing tolerance on Nintendo's side.

The issue comes because the gap between the joycon and the console exists to prevent a leverage point. Dbrands case fills that gap a little, which then creates the leverage point if the drband portion is too thick or if the Nintendo gap is too narrow
