Not Terrible But Not Great Either
This works ok. It doesn't fit in my car because I have a manual and the stick is in the way. I have to use it with it turned all sideways and upside down which is pointless in a way. I have to take it out in order to change the songs. I wish I had gotten one that wasn't designed to sit up and be convenient. When I go over bumps, it causes my ipod to shuffle- REALLY REALLY annoying. I mean, REALLY annoying, especially since I can't see the screen due to the position I have to set it in. However, I got it because my other transmitter couldn't find a station to play my ipod with any sort of clarity and this does provide good sound. You can hardly tell its a transmitter. If you have a power outlet in a position that this thing can sit in comfortably and not be constantly moved around it would be fine. I'm not sure what the deal is with the bumpy shuffling. It might be an ipod thing however, I've never noticed before this transmitter. It might have something to do with how it fits into the holder. I don't think I paid much more than $10- $12 so it's ok for that. I'll probably buy a different one eventually though.

Fell Apart, doesn't fit iPod touch
Although this item is inexpensive, it is not worth the money. After just a few uses in my power outlet in the car, the adapter fell apart inside the power outlet. It has really poor construction. Also, as many others have mentioned, it is bulky and if you have cup holders near your power outlet, it won't fit. Additionally, it didn't fit the iPod touch. The Touch was longer, rendering the remote control useless because it blocked the top. The iPod fell out of the holder all the time, too.

It's ok, but a bit awkward.
The sound quality is great, and probably the best feature for this product. However, it is very awkwardly shaped for my car. The spot where it show you can put the Ipod in there doesn't really fit. But I have to keep it all the way open, otherwise I can't put my car into Park while it is still in there. Also since the Ipod doesn't fit where it is supposed to go, the line from the adapter is too short. It is only a couple of inches out, and so was trying to figure out what is a good way to maneuver it to try to listen to certain music files. Which thankfully most of the time a friend of mine did, because it would have been a bit dangerous for me since I was driving.
Overall it is good, if you want something and don't mind the bulk and awkwardness of the product.

Died after 2 months of use never had a clear signal-stay away!!!
Yet another Cheapo FM Transmitter that died on me. 3rd one I bought on Amazon that cost around 10$ all of them have Failed. Stay away from these period. especially this one. sound quality is bad and mine stopped working after 2 months. You can only have decent sound quality with ipod max volume and car volume half volume otherwise lots of static of high pitched noises. It takes 30 minutes every day to find a decent station and it wont be a preset one. Even if there is a station that is not used at all that doesn't mean it will work well with this unit. Sound Quality and Build Quality are horrible. Do not waste your money like I did.
