    I love this. No more cold mornings. Great range works through my brick building into the next lot. Well worth the price.

    Works well for Camry, not for new RAV4 Prime

    I can’t give these one star, but can’t give five either. I bought two of these: one for my wife’s early 2000s Camry and mine for a new RAV4 Hybride (Prime). The starter has worked so far on the Camry, and it’s been on there a couple months (we bought these last January but couldn’t get to a mechanic to install until August). However DI NOT PURCHASE these from Best Buy if you own a new Prime RAV4 (2021 and later). Nobody at BBUY nationwide has installed a started on this vehicle apparently. My BBUY mechanic is great guy, did his best but there were no schematics to install this and I didn’t want to be a Guinea pig. The silver lining is that if you do own a Prime, you don’t need one of these to heat your car up. A trick I learned on Reddit from the auto mechanic ar BBUY was if you shut your car off with the heater on, you can start the heater from your remote. Mirabile dictu I forget how. I think you hold one of the buttons for several seconds. But it will start the heat pump heater on your vehicle to warm the cabin. This trick will not work if the temp setting was not on heat. It’ll blow air at whatever temp you left it on. If you shut off the air before extinguishing the engine, then it won’t work too apparently. This workaround only applies to the RAV4 Prime btw. Don’t know if it applies to the Prius Prime.

    This is the best remote start. The distance is incredible and the two way notification is a feature that you have to get. The security features are incredible as well.

    I've only had this for 4 months and so far its been an amazing device. I have been able to start my car from up to a block away in my home and its made these cold winter months a lot more bearable.

    This product is amazing! I got it installed in my 2010 Ford Fusion and it works great. The range on the remote is incredible and especially with the 2 way remote it starts it within seconds and also lets me know when my car successfully started. I couldn't ask for anything better. The product is on the expensive side but it is worth it. The installation process and service was also fantastic and was very quick.

    Managed to get this bad boy for 139.99 + tax. Including install?? Yes, please! I'm thinking it might of been user error for that price. Install alone is more than that. Only hiccup was trying to find a store that had availability (or a tech for that matter). Had to wait like 2 months for my appointment for them to cancel a few days before. Another month or so went by before actually getting it installed, plus had to drive a little over an hour. Still got my money's worth 3x

    Best auto start EVER! I've never had the luxury of being able to start my car from far away or inside my home, but this delivers with ease. I got this during a flash black friday sale which was such a great deal. SO happy with the purchase and well worth it. I am in a basement apartment and my car turns on every time from inside. So convenient and no issues so far!

    I bought this model for my wife 2 years ago, and have absolutely no regrets! The system functions as inteded, and the range on the silver remote is absolutely stellar! We have yet to have a clear view or the car, and not been able to turn it on. We have also found we can use the remote through buildings pretty frequently, though not without flaw or occasional fail. *installed in a 2020 kia soretnto*

    Bought this Compustar 2-way Remote Start system for my GF. Best Buy installed it in a 2 hour window. Great range, and a nice product. Great deal, when purchased during the "Deal of the Day", which included installation.

    Works from extremely far away. The 2 way remote is pretty nice that it tells you if the action was completed or not. Wish there were two 2 way remotes but one is good enough.
