Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a very basic unit requiring no external power, which is a plus unless you're counting on using a remote control to switch inputs. With this one you'll have to get up and walk over to the unit and manually switch inputs. Make sure you look at my "customer picture" of the back of the unit so you know exactly what you can plug into this thing. It's either S-Video or Composite with their accompanying audio cabling. It is not meant for Component video, HDMI or any such modern cabling.
I've had this unit for several years. I used it for a few years to switch between various gaming consoles, DVD players and VCRs with basic composite and/or S-Video outputs. When we were using it it was almost always reliable. There were times when the push of a button didn't switch over the connection cleanly. But, switching back and forth a couple of times with firm button pushes would put it right.
So far I've docked a star for occasional unreliability and for the outdated cable compatibility. I have to dock one more star because of the following: This unit is so lightweight that once you've plugged 15+ cables into it, it can't compete with the weight of the cables and winds up pulled off its perch and back behind all the electronic components it was sitting on. This happened all the time with ours. Since it's about the size of soda can, and the buttons are on top of it, you'll probably have to place it atop your TV or stack of components. It will wind up pulled down and back behind these things because of all the heavy cables, unless you come up with a creative solution to hold it in place.
Amazon says a 3-star rating means an item is "OK", and that's about right for this one.
