Good price point, bad strain relief August 25, 2009 Shannon (Baltimore, MD USA) I've been using one of these cables in my car for about a year now. It works well, except that the strain relief at the iPod connector end is lacking. Lately, the cable jacket has worn through at the iPod connector, and there's now exposed wire. The cable still works for now, but will probably fail after a couple more bending cycles. It's otherwise a fine adapter.
It worked for awhile. June 20, 2009 Lizzi (California) It worked. The connectors aren't very well done, so the plastic starts coming out from the back edges of the connectors after awhile and then the wires start to fray.
If I didn't have a Fry's around, I'd still buy 10 for the price of what one costs at Best Buy (and in the future I'd also get some of the rubber things that you put over connector ends and use a heat gun to shrink them into place to better secure it before I started using it).
Worked until it broke. May 18, 2009 romy (Newtonville, MA USA) This item came in a bundle- but I would not buy on its own.
Pros: being a gadget junkie, the idea of less wire due to retractability is a strong selling point- great for the car as well for that reason.
Cons: Gets easily tangled. Care must be taken when retracting/unretracting.
With just regular use, the wire tore at the point of insertion into pin plug and I had to put pressure on it to maintain a connection.
So- If you can be gentle with this item, it may suit your needs.
Works well for a great price; cheaply built May 7, 2009 Matthew Holmes (Raleigh, NC) I bought two of these cables, since they were so inexpensive. They work perfectly. I'm glad I bought them. More specifically, I'm glad I bought *two* of them. They are very cheaply built - and not surprisingly, considering the price.
1) When you extend the cable, the wire "remembers" its shape and tries to coil back up. More expensive retractable cables are pliable, and don't curl up when you extract them.
2) The round instruction "badge" spontaneously slid off and got all gooey in my hot car. This is very minor.
3) When I accidentally dropped one of these from a modest height of maybe 4 or 5 feet onto my laminate floor, it EXPLODED in a fountain of springs and plastic pieces!! Oops.
Work just fine May 6, 2009 Pilar Mejia I purchased three to keep at home at work and in the car for my iphone. They all seem to work just fine, no complaints. I love being able to snap them up and avoid tangled cords. The cord that came with the iphone was too short so these are a great alternative at an unbeatable price. We'll see how they stand up over time.
