    Almost What I Needed..

    Didn't quite meet my expectations for a fm transmitter . The Best Buy associate told me it would work better with iPhones but it was super staticky . Sometimes it wouldn't even work . I tried every radio station , couldn't get a clear signal . It may work better for other cars, just not mine . If I could rate it a 1.2 I would , it worked somewhat but not really .

    Simply does not work

    Awful product. Regardless of the station or phone I use, the transmission is almost 75% static. I did not expect "good" audio quality, however I certainly expected to be able to atleast understand the lyrics. Would never recommend this or any other transmitter to anybody. Better to just spend the money on a new stereo.

    It does the job but when driving distances the stations cut in causing you to have to retune frequently.

    DOES NOT WORK. I've been having issues with my iPhone's audio jack, so this seemed like the perfect solution other than a Bluetooth transmitter. I thoroughly read the instructions before using and still could not get this product to work. I have an iPhone 6 which is listed as a compatible device, and I've had success with other FM transmitters in the past. It did charge my phone, but no music played through any of the stations I chose. $40 is a steep price for a product that doesn't work, save your money and buy a Bluetooth transmitter instead.

    Purchased this item and got way too much static. Signal not strong enough for acceptable sound quality. Returning it in the morning.

    Decent

    The device is somewhat confusing to use. The buttons aren't very clear. It also feels as though it is made out of poor material.

    Not great

    This machine, if you can call it that, is as variable and contrarian as a cat. It rarely picked up a clean signal and, even when it did, you had to hold the stupid thing in just the right position for the signal to remain clean, often resulting in the passenger having to assume very uncomfortable poses in order to ensure continuing sound. Returned it.
