I give this a 4 star rating instead of a 5 because 4 months and about 20 uses after I got it, it stopped working. When it was working it worked fine & I did like it. However I give the merchant a 5 star rating because when I contacted them about it malfunctioning they replaced it immediately. Its nice to know that there are still companies out there that stand behind the products they sell. - Thank you for the replacement.

When I finally got around to using it, it was working it was alright but after a week it started to stop pumping and took a hit to get started again, then it stopped working all together

While it worked, it worked fine.  Weirdly, two of the four heating elements stopped working just when the Warranty reached expiration date. I doubt I will be buying a Cuisinart as a replacement.

I've only had it for a little over 3 months & it quit working.  Loved it when it did work.

When it worked, it did what it supposed to do. But after a few months of light use (less than twice per week), it crapped out on me.

I bought this because it seemed to have everything I needed for a fair price - it had the power supply, light strip, remote, and IR Wireless receiver for this. Had it all, and out of the box, it seemed to work just fine.

However, after about a week or two, I noticed that my lights started flickering sporadically, and then they would do so more frequently. I would turn it off for an hour or two, and when I would turn it back on, it would work fine again. I also noticed that the power supply that came with it was getting abnormally warm - nearly 130 F. I switched it for another power supply of the same voltage, but lower amperage - it worked indefinitely, but the colors on my remote somehow flipped (Red button turned it blue, Green button turned it red, Blue button turned it green), but all other controls were normal. I switched to the original stock power supply, and the remote behaved normally again, but it ultimately burnt out the power supply. I tried another power supply with a slightly lower amperage, but above the one with the backwards controls, and it worked, but also burnt out eventually.

I then try switching wireless receiver boxes, and keeping the lower amperage power supply (by this point, the original power supply and another one I had tried were both burnt out), and it behaved normally again for the most part - I can leave it on Fade 7 indefinitely, but I cannot leave it on white or the power supply will overheat and the lights will start flickering again.

The sticky stuff it comes with on the back isn't very adhesive, but I found that using that transparent packing tape can hold the weight of this and not be visible.

I am pleased that it finally works, I just wish I didn't have to go through that much trouble.

I bought two of these consecutively, and each lasted exactly one year operating 24/7 before failing... I mean exactly.  Almost as if it was a designed obsolesence at the end of the warranty period.  When it worked, it operated fine and with no problems.  I think now it was a bit too much to spend on something that lasted so shortly.  I replaced my last one with a slightly less expensive Linksys model, and we'll see how that holds up.

I  liked it when it was working, it has since quit working after my daughter pulled it out of the xbox. I might get another one eventually as i really did like it! i just wish it was a little more "beefy"!

Fine while it lasted. Got three years out of it.
This is actually a review of the higher priced, X-Series Full modular 560 watt model, but SeaSonic no longer makes an X-Series lower than 650 watts.
Paid $125 via Amazon in November of 2012 and the unit began malfunctioning in November of 2015.
Intermittent power supply problems started with random shutdowns. Shutdowns became more frequent and then unit would not turn back on.

***Update***
The return process was relatively painless, all done online & since I purchased it on Amazon it was easy to produce the required documentation. Seasonic sent me a new unit which I have installed. Of course now I have an extra power supply which I had to purchase to get my computer back up and running, but it obviously doesn't hurt to have a standby in case of future failure.

It worked pretty good when i got it, but after 3 months starting to give me very erratic readings and then go back to normal, after the 5th month it started going haywire and the alarm starting going off at random times during the day, and finally it died around the 6-7 month.

for the price i didn't expect much, but it served its function as an introduction to hear rate monitors and learning experience.

I used this at work -- it's what the IT guys gave me when I asked for a USB hub.  It worked flawlessly for about 6 months or so.  Then my computer started complaining that it couldn't recognize what it was any more, even with no USB devices plugged into it.  If I powered it down for maybe a half an hour then re-connected it, everything was fine for several weeks... then it would happen again.  I went through several cycles of this, but eventually it stopped working for good.

I went to our IT guys and told them it had died.  They gave me another one (same model) and the same thing happened -- okay for about half a year, then erratic, then dead.  Both were rev 3's.

I love the design, especially the top-loading ports.  But given my track record with this hub, I can't recommend it.  It would probably be okay, though, if you don't plan to keep it powered 24/7.

when it worked it was fine but the problem is that this only worked for like 6 months and then broke and stopped working. i bought another one and then that one stopped working after like 3 months.

This fan was a perfect solution for me - at least I thought so. I needed a fan for a quiet, light flow of air. The fact that it had USB or battery power was a bonus. It gave me great service for a few weeks. Initially the low speed was erratic. It would vary speeds depending on its placement. I wasn't sure why, but this wasn't too big a problem since I left it in one position. Then, this morning, it stopped working. I tried it  both with the USB connection (I plugged another item in same plug & it worked fine) & with brand new batteries without success. It's not worth sending it back since it would almost cost as much to return it as the original cost. But now I'm back where I started - still needing a small, reliable fan.

stopped working in about a year; otherwise I liked it

Had this for a little while until the wire became loose and it stopped working. When it did work I liked it very much. Gave off good amount of light and was flexible. The production standards seem to be moderate at best. Use it very delicately and it will probably last longer. Not buying it again.
