 Piece of junk July 11, 2010
Joseph Lapinski (Albany, NY, US)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased the Griffen looking for something easy to use with an ipod touch in the car. It initially worked pretty well except for the fact that the unit would swing back and forth when the car was turning. Not wanting to have the ipod hit the console regularly, I used black eletrical tape to keep it stable(The black tape matched the unit). That worked and I was fairly happy for a while. The problem that has now developed is that the unit will lose the radio station after 2 minutes of playing. I thought that it might be the vibration of the car ( I drive a nice car with a smooth ride) but I can be standing still and it will lose the station. At this point the unit is worthless. I am going to try to get my money back.
 Perfect in almost every way June 4, 2010

This works just as it is supposed to and does it perfectly. The only somewhat annoying thing is adjusting the adapters to get the ipod positioned just right and is complicated by transferring from vehicle to vehicle. But that is a small grievance and is really only nit-picking. I would definitely buy again if I wanted another one.
 Bad sound quality June 4, 2010
V. Ganger (Chicago, IL USA)
After having read all of the reviews for this item I was really excited to receive it from the seller. My car does not have a cd player so this was my one last chance at listening to good music in the car besides paying over 100 dollars to get something profesionally installed. I tried so many different fuzzy stations like it said in the directions and only one somewhat worked. The sound quality was poor at best and often I just found it too annoying to even bother listening. If I could go back in time, I would buy something a little more expensive that you are positive has good sound quality in your car. Try going to a best buy first and getting advice and then come to get it online.

Steven A. Branson (Dedham, MA)
This item is bulky and only suitable for someone who wants a charger and transmitter that can be detached.
Therefore, it is not the best selection for most buyers
Absolute disappointment! May 17, 2010
Bbt (Herndon, VA)
I absolutely regret ever purshased this item!
The FM transmitter doesn't work in any FM station, the static is even worse when using the ipod! The static is pretty strong, you can barely hear any music! I strongly recommend you not to purchase this item. It is total garbage!
I am furious because I cannot listen to my ipod while driving!
