DO NOT BUY - 2 Units BOTH DEFECTIVE
581335
After thinking I was getting a good deal I figured I would try out this device, I mean it cant be that bad, right?

Immediately after ordering I started to see that there was a common issue with this GPS, after updating it seems to cause the device to freeze up constantly and require constant resets that require you to lose all the info you saved or the device itself would just not turn on.

The first unit I ordered seemed fine, I followed the steps everyone recommended and backed up the device, removed unnecessary voices, etc but it would keep asking me to restart the unit and go through the initial setup every time. After realizing it was crazy to have to keep doing this I sent it back to Amazon as a defective unit and they sent me a new one.

The second unit seemed like it might work out, I took even more precautions during the setup by backing it up but immediately after changing the icon for my car, the device shut down and would not wake up. Frustrated again, I called Amazon and told them I needed a refund and shipped it back.

I cannot believe Amazon is selling this product since the odds of me getting 2 defective units as well as all of the others you can read about online makes it seem like there is a VERY LARGE issue they should be aware of.

Either way, I will never buy a TomTom device again since my 3 year old Garmin is still working and the TomTom lasted a few hours. Its just not worth the hassle to save a little money

I purchased this Royal Machines 29298R WES 2000 900 MHz Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Speaker system to use with a small outdoor theater.  I tried the transmitter on two computers and two iPhones. The speakers are fine but the transmitter and/or the AC/DC adapter are defective.  The transmitter signal (green light) would come for 30 seconds and then go out or would not come at all.  This was not a question of range as speakers were quite close.  I called the company, which they requested you do in instruction manual instead of returning to the store where you purchased the system.  The person from a call center in India said that they would not replace defective parts except after a 10 week wait.  I am returning the product to Amazon, which appears to be painless (so far).  Avoid this company and its products.

I purchased one of these devices and it could not longer be charged after about two weeks.  Amazon was kind enough to replace the device, only to have the new device stop charging in five days!  The probability of these two cases being isolated are astronomically low, which would lead to only one logical conclusion: all of these devices are defective and will stop charging within a week to two weeks of purchase.  Please do yourself a favor and stay far away from these!

What a piece of junk!  As mentioned in other similar reviews, this unit is defective right out of the box due to failure of the attenuation switches to stay in position.  It's hard to believe that Pyle continues to sell a product with such high failure rate right out of the box.  Not one but BOTH channel were defective right out of the box.  No sound would pass through until someone happened to wiggle the attenuation switches.  We discovered that if one held the switch in position manually or with electrical tape the box would work, but there was no switch position that worked otherwise, and this was both switches on both channels!  Clearly not a coincidence but most likely severely inferior components  AVOID THIS PRODUCT.

Bought two of these to convert my old standard 1" equipment into the 2" Olympic. The first worked great but the second had a defect so that screw that's supposed to help the adaptor latch onto the original bar did not work. Figuring it was a one-off incident, I returned the defected sleeve and ordered a new one. It arrived and had the exact same problem. Avoid this product, it's not with the hassle.

First one worked for about 2 minutes with a strange buzz coming from the amp itself. The buzzing was more noticeable while in Bluetooth mode. Sound quality to the speakers was good. It only operated for about ten minutes before it stopped amplifying the input and only sending a strange hum and buzz to the speakers. Then the indicator lights were light oddly. The lights were even light without any sound input. Not a good sign. Powering down and waiting did nothing to remedy. So, I returned the unit to Amazon(Excellent return service. No complaints about Amazon.)
The second unit was dead on arrival. The same behavior right outbid the box.
I can not say I would recommend this amplifier.
I would however like to commend Amazon and their return department for making the experience uncomplicated and getting the defective product returned quickly and easily.

This is the second one of these we have had over the last month. Century link provided the first one as a leased unit with our DSL plan. I am very glad I did not buy one of these outdated items outright or I would be out of twice as much money. Both units we have had completely died within a couple weeks, or with this unit, almost as soon as set up. Seems to be some sort of heat issue with these units, very surprised they died in a 70F house with no dust or anything else on the units. Obviously a manufacturer defect as this issue seems widespread through minor internet searching. Do yourself a favor and go with a Zytel c1000z instead.

Purchased 2 of these. 1 works without issue. The other is defective. Will not charge using dock (which is the reason I purchased it). Unit is 2 months out of the year warranty. The unit was used very little as I usually charge my phone in the kitchen.  iHome will "evaluate" it for "possible" repair for $50 plus shipping & handling both ways. No thanks. I only paid $75 for it originally.

This is a POC.
I bought the first set in the first week of DEC 2010, and after one week of installation the passenger side unit started turning off by itself after 15 to 20 mins of playing time.
I returned it to Amazon and got a replacement thinking this was just a bad unit.
I installed the second set 2 days before Christmas, ready for the holiday travel. It worked f  ine during the trip and back, then early this week one of the players stopped playing DVDs and only showed a blue screen. I was still able to watch what was playing on the other set once i switched the input to that set.
I guess the only good thing from this experience is that I became an expert at installing these things!!!!
So the second set was shipped this week with a request for a refund not a replacement. I wish they will refund the value of my wasted time on installation and removal of this Piece Of Crap.

I ordered one because of the quality reviews! I moved it by sliding it with my foot on my floor one time and it stopped working. I sent it back for a replacement. My second one stopped working after sliding it a little out of the way one time as well. I may have had two defective models or this humidifier must remain stationary at all times. Either way the second time was passed my return date so now I'm stuck with a non-working humidifier. BOO!

I am revising my review of this product based on defective product.  Referring to my first purchase below, it is working fine.  The second one was defective out of the box, and Amazon replaced it.  The replacement worked out of the box, but died a week later.  Now apparently I cannot return it for replacement because it is not available from Amazon, but only from other dealers.  Nor can I get a refund, because I don't have the original packaging.  If I could get a replacement, it would come with original packaging to send the defective unit back, but .....

This nice little remote is a very risky purchase in my opinion.

--original review below ---

I have purchased two of these, and they are working very well for my purposes.  I have not tried to use the built-in codes, only the learning features to consolidate a handful of remotes into one in a home theater setup.

From a user perspective, it is great - it lights up when you just move it a little, and goes completely dark to save batteries when not in use.

I had some problems to solve however -

One was that the instructions for teaching codes are somewhat confusing.  In one instruction it clearly says "press and hold (two buttons) until a mode light blinks".  This is correct - you must press and hold both buttons at the same time.  However, in another instruction it says "press the mode key and the remote key to be programmed..."  In this case you may not understand that these are not to be held at the same time.  You press the mode key, release it, and then press the key to be programmed and hold it while sending the teaching signal.

Elsewhere it says "repeat steps 2 through 5 as often as desired..." to program additional keys.  Fact is, you repeat only steps 4-5.

The other problem I had to solve was that the second remote I ordered arrived as expected, but did not work at all.  Batteries were good, but the lights only flashed intermittently and no functions worked.  After I received a replacement from Amazon I realized that the defective unit was used.  The batteries were loose in the packaging, while the new one had them wrapped in plastic;  also there was peel-off protective material on the user panel on the new one, but the defective unit did not have that.  I suspect that there had been a mix-up between a defective return and new inventory.

Amazon was great about a quick and easy return process however.  No cost to me at all, just a few days of delay in getting a working unit.

Worthless.  I purchased four of these units late 2017 and only one is still working - and that one is working poorly. The fan noise became increasingly loud in each device and then they stopped working altogether. There were neither damage nor power surges involved.  I also purchased Asurion insurance on two units - one was returned for a refund but Asurion refused to replace or refund the second defective device and I was referred to the manufacturer -- who wanted me to pay shipping and insurance to return the unit.  Since the device was only $29, after paying for Asurion (and received NO benefit whatsoever from having done so), it made no economic sense to return the second unit.  Trash.

Both units I purchased have failed. They lasted for about 3 months. Based on their cost, there is no reason to return them.

I bought 2 of these. One worked and one did not.

Received two defective units.
The first was ordered as a Christmas gift.  No power to the track; either a defective wall pack or defective terminal track section.  Received replacement in three days.
Worse issues with the replacement.  The track had power but the wire that powers the sound was broken off at the solder joint.  The wires are too short and too delicate for the application (read other reviews - this is a common issue).  Second, after running the train for about 5 minutes one of the metal piston arms snapped in half and blew apart the wheel drive assembly on one side of the train.  A third issue (which also appears to be a common complaint) is that when the train did operate, it would often move in short bursts, especially when going forward.

I had no intention of writing a poor review until I politely questioned a Lionel representative regarding my experience and asked if there was another Lionel product that I could purchase that is a more reliable alternative to this Polar Express set.  I guess that was the wrong question to ask.  Then, when he found out it was purchased on Amazon he became extremely irritated and obstinate stating "Well that was your first problem" and suddenly the defect issues became solely my fault.  He attributed my experience to fact that I did not purchase from a Lionel dealer and that the sets were surely damaged in shipping.  Apparently, to avoid the potential for any shipping damage, Lionel must be hand delivering these from their manufacturer in China directly to licensed dealers and everyone else must be out of luck.  The units were not damaged in shipping.  My guess is that it makes more economic sense for Lionel to have you pay full, or near full retail price at a dealer and then send out questionable product for them to rework.
Amazon's inventory of this set was actually put on ship hold for several days.  I would be interested to know why it was released again.

Three out of twenty units did not work.  There appears to be no way to return defective units.  Do not buy from this vendor.
