You light up my world...or at least my bedroom
February 6, 2013
I am in LOVE with this product! It's exactly what I was hoping for. I recently moved in with a friend, and the way my furniture in my bedroom is set up, I had to walk in complete darkness (I'm in the basement), and crawl over my bed to manually plug in a light. Now that I have the remotes, I just have to reach up as soon as I walk in to click them on, and the other remote lives beside my pillow, so I don't even have to get up once I lay down to turn out my lights. This product is pretty much a lifesaver.
Pros:~ Ease-of-access to my room's lighting now
~ Both remotes come with keychains, which makes them easy to hang from a wall hook (it basically replaces having a wall switch).
Cons:~ The receivers are rather bulky, and it's a tight fit with only two outlets, both behind furniture.
~ Sometimes when I click a remote to turn the lights off, only one will turn off, since both remotes/receivers are on the same channel. So I have to keep clicking until they sync back up.

Pretty good
April 22, 2013
There were a couple problems. One of the key chain remotes had a screw that wouldn't come out. I had some installers at the house and they were able to get it open. Sometimes only one of the two lamps go on or off. I would rate the product medium.

Plug in receivers
February 7, 2013
This item saved me $100 dollars! I didn't have to hire an electrician to install a new light switch for my new finished basement. It really works great!!!
Pros:Great price!!!
Cons:Both receivers have same frequency. They should give two separate codes.

An indispensable accessory at a price that's almost too good to be true
February 1, 2013
This was a no-brainer for me. I put some lighting on the top of my office cabinets for indirect light, but had no way to turn them on, other than pulling the plug (not an option). This remote system solves the problem perfectly. I love it!
Pros:An extremely good value at their price, and you could use it for any number of on/off power applications.

Can only use one of them
January 8, 2013
The only problem I have with this item is, even though you get a set of 2 switches and 2 remotes, since they are both on the same frequency, I can only use 1 because I if I use them both I end up turning both appliances on and/or off at the same time. I don't have 2 of anything that I want to turn or and off at the same time. I do like the look and operation of the product so far, just wish I could use them both. The second one is basically worthless to me.
Pros:visually appealing
works well
Cons:can't use both because they are on the same frequency

Love this product
May 4, 2011
I wasn't sure how installation of this product would work, but you literally just have to remove a plastic tab protecting the batteries, plug the receiver it into your outlet, and plug in your lamp. It's so easy.
The package comes with 2 receivers and 2 remotes. I used one for a floor lamp in my bedroom that's on the far side of the room, and I leave the small remote on my bedside table. I plugged the other one into the outlet for my coffee pot in the kitchen! It is a great feeling to wake up, press a button within arms reach, and have a fresh cup of coffee ready the moment you step out of bed. It's even better than having an automatic timer on your coffeemaker.
Pros:Remote is small
You can choose whether or not to attach the keyring
Easy installation

Very Handy Product
April 29, 2011
This is a great product that works as advertised. I was particularly impressed with how easily the signal travels through walls. I use the receiver to control 2 bedside lamps and am able to turn them on from my garage. The remotes come with a key ring, so you can attach it to your key chain.
I would rate this 5 stars if it had two receptacles on each receiver instead of only 1. I plugged a mini power strip into one of the receivers and then plugged 2 lamps into the strip.
Pros:Very easy to install
Works well
Signal travels through walls
Cons:Only one receptacle on each receiver
Wish I could still turn lamp on/off without having to use remote
