I just got this item a little while ago and must say it’s one of the better purchases I’ve made in a while. My 2002 Jeep Wrangler only has a CD player, so for my brand new 32GB iPod Touch, it was either an FM transmitter or an overhauled dashboard. I opted for the much more lucrative of the two. I must say, I couldn’t be happier with this product. Sure, you have to deal with signal interruptions as you pass through different towns with conflicting FM stations, but that’s true of all FM transmitters. I am very pleased with the sound quality I am getting from this device with only a subtle hiss in the background when the music quiets (but this is probably caused by signal interference and not from the unit itself). I previously owned a cheapo $10 transmitter from ebay for my iPod Nano – this one is only a bit more expensive, but has infinitely better sound quality. As a previous reviewer mentioned, listening to music from your iPod with this device is very much like tuning to a clear FM station. For the audiophiles out there, this might be unacceptable (but they probably wouldn’t be purchasing this kind of product anyway). For someone who wants an easy to use FM transmitter with great sound, this is for you.
Pros:
- Extremely reasonable price (compared to what they charge for similar devices at Best Buy)
- Great sound for an FM transmitter
- Easy to install and operate
- Long, flexible arm (the cigarette lighter in my car is recessed pretty deep; this device fits perfectly)
- Solid, attractive design that matches the style of the iPod/iPhone
Cons:
- Remote control only works when held directly in front of the device (low battery?)
- You must manually tune the device to a new frequency during signal disruption
- I was able to tune my old FM transmitter to 87.7, which is usually a clear frequency in most places; this one only allows you to tune from 88.1 – 107.9

This product is well worth the value. Installation is a snap (have to adjust it a bit to account for the gear shifter in my VW), the FM transmitter is powerful (does not lose clarity where other products I’ve owned did); however I do have to turn up the volume quite a bit on the radio, but it’s not a deal-breaker.
Before you buy, you might want to consider how it will fit in the space b/w the lighter jack and the gear shift.
Nice to have: I do wish it came with a fixed base which I could slide the device into, instead of having to maneuver & plug in the charger cable every time I use it, but for $10.99, I can’t complain.

Well, it’s a good product. FM quality is great. However, the model does not fit the itouch as was advertised. Maybe they fixed the descritption by now? So, the itouch is about one inch above where it’s supposed to be and doesn’t settle on the base holders.
The company was great about resolving the problem.

I am really surprised at all the negative reviews for this item. I find it works fantastic. I have used many FM transmitters before and none are perfect, it is difficult to find any that have CD quality sound, but I think for the price it works well. It fits better than some others I tried as you can manipulate it to move which ever way you want. My only complaint would be the remote, as you can only use it if you point it at the very top of the transmitter (a bit inconvenient). Otherwise I find that it works very well, I am happy that you can choose to charge it or not, I was actually in my car with a friend and I was charging my iphone while we were listening to her ipod.

I bought the same form factor device for twice the price from another seller in June 2009 and the tip broke off in the outlet in only 5 months of standard use. This is the same design, which rotates in the lighter socket under the weight of the iPhone 3GS when taking a quick turn, but the FM transmitter works well enough, and it charges the iPhone without problems. The side braces hold my iPhone even in a hard clear case, but it’s a squeeze. I will be extra careful with this model, but at the price less than $15 that I paid, if it breaks later I can afford to buy a new one.
