Customers frequently mention the ease of use and smaller size as significant advantages. However, many users experienced issues with Kinect sensor recognition, calibration difficulties, and inconsistent tracking, particularly impacting gameplay. Some found the zoom feature insufficient and reported problems with maintaining consistent player detection. Overall, the product's effectiveness seems highly dependent on individual setup and calibration success.

Very simple product that now enables my kids to play their Xbox Kinect in smaller room and/or space! We didn't have a large enough play room when we got the Kinect and my kids were bummed because the games would not work correctly as they were forced to stand too close. Quickly snapping on the new lens adapter and the kids were playing again in their small room and the Kinect is now working great!!!
Thanks BBuy...

Its a good design but just not sure if it really works. I might help a little if you have a small room.

I bought this on clearance in an attempt to make my son's kinnect work better in our living room. It still constantly needs to re-calibrate and says "its unable to find the floor". It would cost me more in shipping than I spent to send it back so we're just keeping it. Also the package I received was opened and missing the lens protectors. I'm sure it was returned MANY times already.

At the time of purchase my living room was small and the different games for the Xbox 360 kinect didn't want to work right. So I picked this up, put it on the kinect sensor and haven't had a problem since!! This is perfect for use in small living rooms/gaming rooms.

The zoom works surprisingly well, but it is kind of ugly.

I just got my first Xbox 360 kinect system and I was afraid about the small playing area in my room. A friend told me about this product and I grabbed it up as soon as I could. You can't beat the price either. So far I have had nothing but positive experiences with it. I am able to play very close to the TV and the sensor still picks up my entire body. You can only move so much in a small space but this makes it so much easier.

I couldn't tell if it helped at all or not. Seems much more like a gimmick but then again, it may have helped. Not the best review but not the best product either.

Works good in smaller rooms. Not expensive, so well worth giving it a try if you are having issues with your Kinect due to room size.

I was only able to get this device able to work once. It really messes with the lighting available to the camera and usually does not work.

I was hoping that his product would help with my limited space due to my sofa w/o my having to move the sofa everytime I wanted to play the kinect. I am not sure what is wrong, but it keeps the lenses from fully picking up all of my movement. I have checked it and removed and replaced many times but still does not work properly.
