Unreliable but possibly just received a lemon

Doesn't work. It takes up to an hour to be recognized by laptops that I use, if at all. Sometimes it quits working altogether. Very unreliable and super frustrating.

UPDATE: I'm switching my 1 star to a 3 star. Anker reached out to me & offered to send me a new hub, free of charge & are looking into the defective device. They aren't even requiring me to return the defective device in order to not inconvenience me further. Very impressed by their service! I hope to give an even better review once I receive the new hub. :)

Easy to use, accurate navigational device ... when it works. I bought the first unit and powered it up but got nothing. Tech support suggested I exchange it for a new one. The second one worked quite well and was a pleasure to use ... for three weeks. Then it went dead and no amount of charging or resets made a difference. Returned it and got a replacement that also went dead after three weeks. I'm waiting for the fourth unit to arrive but don't have high hopes of having it work.

I paid almost $800 for this unit but think it was a waste of money. It's a great product but it is too unreliable.

I must have gotten a lemon when I purchased this but it stopped working properly after two uses. After that, I had to hold down the power button while airbrushing for it to stay on. Now, it doesn't do anything. I should have sent it back as soon as I started having problems with it.

I bought one for Christmas for my cousin and proceed to help her start it up. New batteries were placed in but it did not work when we went to test the item. Was sent a second one through amazon customer service and the second one was just as defective as the first. I might have just got bad luck.

OK so sad... our unit had a LED screen and timer issue.  It would not track the cooking time correctly...it jumped from 30 min to 5 min in about 4 min. and made a loud clicking noise when you were preheating. The convection would also shut off randomly.  Looks great. We returned it and will try a similar unit, perhaps without the digital option. Great size.... but we received a lemon.

The initial unit I received new from an Amazon seller would not power on after two days of charging.  I went to Best Buy, picked one up and it worked fantastically.  For me, this is a 50% failure rate.  It may have been a fluke but it is very rare a non-functional unit should ever get past QC.

Maybe I got a lemon, but i'm not going to give it another try.
For the price you pay, I expect the drive to work right out of the box. Their website forum has alot of people tring to find a fix for this which depending on error message, is what you have to do to fix it. I say no no, should work right the first time. Returned it to Amazom, they have an outstanding return policy

I think I may have received a lemon. The appearance of the product was nice. The screen is big, easy to swivel, and has locking mechanism to hold the disc cover closed instead of a push button.  However, the speakers did not work and the battery did not hold any charge after 10 hours of being plugged into the wall.  I ordered this while on vacation for our return trip home since our other one broke on the trip down.  Returned it to amazon as soon as we were home.

Update (6/30/17):
The seller contacted me and sent a replacement.  It works perfectly.  The speakers are loud and the battery holds a full charge after being charged for 6 hours.  The seller was easy to work with and responded to questions quickly.  I suggest contacting them directly for a replacement if you have one that seems to not be working properly.

I purchased this and may have gotten a lemon.  The batteries in this are CR2032 button cells and I found that after a couple days (of being stored and turned off), the battery was dead.  After 3 or 4 batteries I sent it back.  After the last battery, I installed the battery, tested it briefly, turned it off and then set it on a shelf, checking it once a day - it was dead within a week.  I think the wrench would be great if it did not have the battery problem, and I suspect that it may have been a defective unit.  I will probably order another, however since the seller did not offer replacement, I am going to shop around since the price went up since I purchased.

If you find the need to replace the battery, it is under the round cover on the base of the handle.  Remove the 2 small screws, and then carefully remove the battery holder to swap the battery.  The battery holder does not appear designed for frequent replacement of the button cell, and care has to be taken when getting the battery out due to the thin gauge wires attached to the holder.

I purchased this camera at a discount through Amazon Warehouse in order to save myself around $200. The camera came from China in what looked like the original packaging, so I'm assuming it was a refurb. It was a very easy to use camera, and I really liked it a lot, until the day the lens opened only halfway, and would never shut completely - plus, the LCD display would only flash "Cybershot" and then go dark. This happened some two weeks after I received the camera, and despite trying everything I could to try to convince it to cooperate to no avail, I'm having to return it now. That being said, if you purchase one brand new, you may not have this issue, and if that's the case, you'll enjoy it tremendously, I think. Perhaps I should have given it no stars, but since it worked quite well before it failed, I'm giving it two stars.

Unreliable since a couple of days of purchase. Now it just won't start... it keeps "Loading" forever...

Was a 5 star... After firmware update a few months ago it has been an intermittent mess... I keep checking for an update to fix it but it's just completely unreliable.  It was only a few months old when this started.

Worked reasonably well, WHEN it worked - it would power on only intermittently, and randomly power off; I suspect this was the original problem that led to its return, and that this problem was not experienced by the service facility (so my guess is the unit was put back in the 'pipeline' after a cosmetic refurb). I had to return it for refund, but I would have kept it otherwise. The reason I don't rate it higher is that the setup instructions are lacking...they are either confusing due to conflicting directions, or they assume too much knowledge on the part of the user - I'm not even sure which.

Not sure how the rest of you had such a great experience with this tablet, but I definitely got the lemon of the bunch.  Charged the unit and upgraded the firmware first, as directed.  The unit would crash when trying to access Google accounts, Play Store, even just basic Settings options.  Sometimes the display would have red and blue outlines like you see with 3D, other times there would be jittery vertical lines all over the screen, forcing me to hard reset.

I am returning this unit due to what I perceive as being defective.  Contacted the seller to try making it work first, they were very good, very prompt in responding.  Told me I could return the unit with no questions asked.  Sure, I may have to pay for postage, but their kindness and lack of huffy attitude make it very worth it.  Not sure what I will try next (or IF I will try another tablet), as this was my first tablet experience.  I've even heard not-so-great reviews about the supposed top-of-the-line models, but that's a chance you take with any technology.  It WAS fun while it lasted, though... :p

I've actually had good luck with these (bought in a different set), but I've bought 2 of them in the past week and both arrived not working. I'm going to replace it one more time and see if the third time's a charm, but it sure seems like they've got a quality control problem with the units sent to Amazon.
