The device is really small, but seems to work very well. I've had it for a couple of weeks and put it to a lot of use when commuting to work. There are times when the sound gets a little distorted, but nothing that makes it difficult to listen. Even living in a major city, I haven't had any problems getting freqs. that worked well - I've got 4 presets that match up to the 4 memory positions and just switch around if there's any interference. At this price point, I can't imagine a similar product working any better.

I purchased this on Amazon in July. It arrived promptly. I was surprised by its size; I don't know why I expected it to be larger but it's very compact.

Set-up was a breeze and I preset four FM channels which work best in my area (southern Connecticut). I drive an old BMW with the antenna mounted on the driver's side by the trunk and I've had mixed results with FM transmitters in the past. This works great.

I also had a chance to test it on a recent business trip and it worked well in Seattle (Ford Explorer), San Francisco (Chevrolet Impala) and Los Angeles (Toyota Prius). I had the worst reception in Seattle as the FM band seems very crowded there - the same was true when I used my Garmin Nuvi to play Audible content through my speakers.

I've used it without the charger and got decent reception. This was helpful when I needed both my GPS and the transmitter and had only one outlet in the car.

I am very happy with this product and would definitely recommend it.

I have the iPhone 3G and have been hard pressed to find a transmitter that works well AND can charge the phone. The Satechi is that device. It works great with very little static and keeps the phone charged up as well. The company was great to work with as well. Fast shipping and they even followed up on the order a few days later to make sure everything was alright. You don't get that type of customer service a lot these days.

Been looking at FM transmitters for a while and always hesitated at high prices and mixed reviews. This one's one of the least expensive out there and works great. Two weeks of solid use in a major city and no static. Sound quality's very good (for an FM transmitter). Tiny size makes it easy to stash out of sight in my car. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Product works as advertised. Was very pleased because I have friends who have paid 3X the price to get the same functionality that I get from this transmitter.
