 Does its job as well as one can expect October 9, 2008

The factory stereo that came with my car has no AUX input in front or beneath the dash, and I don't want to spend a lot of money, time or effort ghetto rigging it when I plan to buy a new car soon. Thus, I bought this. It has several frequencies to choose from, but could be improved by having a full-spectrum scanner. The resulting sound is tolerable, albeit bass-heavy and (obviously) not even CD-quality.
For what it is, and because I had a gift certificate that made it free, it was a good buy. I only wish that I hadn't lowered my standards to buying it. Might not be worth the $20.

I bought this because my Chevy Blazer CD player is dying. I thought I could use it with an mp3 Player and it would save me carrying around a bunch of CD's in my car. What a mistake!. It transmits incredibly annoying waves of static every 2-3 seconds on all eight of the preset channels, none of which are in use locally. In a city where there are stations near those frequencies I'm sure it would be worse. Even my best MP3 players (Sansa e260 and Creative Zen) sound terrible unless running at near max volume and with the car stereo turned up to 8. Wasted money.
 it works, but sounds like radio September 16, 2008

i can't compare this product to other fm transmitters because it's the first one i've ever purchased, but i'm not very happy with it. the product description on Amazon is accurate:
* Easy one-button FM channel selection with eight available channels
* Transmitter utilizes FM channels - 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7, 88.9, 89.1, 89.3, and 89.5
it is easy to use and the small size is nice so it doesn't take up much space in the car. although the cables get in the way. unfortunately, i didn't notice that it was limited to only those 8 radio frequencies before purchasing (oops). this is the biggest flaw with this fm transmitter (and i assume most will agree). because there are many radio stations in that 88.1 - 89.5 range in my area (St. Louis, MO) there is always audible static while using this device. it allows me to listen to all of my favorite songs from my mp3 player in the car, but it sounds like i'm listening to the radio and not a cd (like it should).
i can't even imagine why Monster would design a product to only allow you to choose from 8 frequencies. also, i'm not sure why this is called a wireless fm transmitter when you have to plug it into both your car lighter/electrical outlet and mp3 player. i guess since it's not plugged into the stereo that counts, but if you ask me, it is not truly wire-less.
this product is cheap and does what it's supposed to, but i would not recommend it to anyone. it is not worth the price (and i paid less than the $20 it's going for currently). and i hope that any prospective buyer will notice the things i didn't about this product.
 Great price great product September 8, 2008

I cannot speak for those who live near big cities, but this item works great in the suburb area where I live and sounds so much clearer than my older fm transmitter did and that one cost $50. It works in the 10 plus cars I have tried it in and it has no issue with my laptop sound or my ipod touch.
Simple design, clear reception July 26, 2008

This is a great product. I got it at a very reasonable price and have had no problems with it whatsoever.
