Amazing Device, Easy to Use.

I bought some a few months ago and love them so much I had to buy more! It’s so handy being able to control all the lamps in the living room and through to the sun room without getting off the couch! And with a King size bed I don’t have to get up to turn off the lights I can’t reach after I’m done reading and nodding off to sleep. It especially means a lot when you have hip and knee issues. I have had no trouble with them, they work perfectly and the signal is not easily blocked by furniture or what-so. I highly recommend :)Shipping was quick as well.

Worked great. Was able to plug in and then use remote to turn on and off instead of having to plug and unplug lights all the time. I had no problems with range or anything else. The only small negative I would say is the unit that you plug into the wall is rather large (about 4-6 inches tall, 1-2 inches thick).

With this remote and the three switches you can sit back and relax when you need to turn on or off a light. Ever forget to turn off a light in the kitchen after making a sandwich or snack? Even if you are already in another room and eating just click the button and its taken care of. Do yourself a favor though, don’t misplace the remote:)

This is an excellent product and works very well. While other reviewers are complaining that the battery is not provided and the button is hard to press, I have found the battery provided in the box and the button to be very responsive. The range is amazing and I never had hard time to turn on/off any light remotely. I also like that the local outlet units have their own on/off switch so I don’t have to run around the house to find the remote to turn on/off my light. The only gripe is the size, it is huge and when plugged in to the wall, it blocks the access to the other outlet as well. So maybe the manufacture could make it more compact.

With a wired switch, say your appliance is on and the power cuts out, then your appliance cuts out too (naturally), but when the power comes back on, so does your appliance. In the same sequence of events with a wireless switch, your appliance does NOT come back on—you have to activate the switch to turn it back on. This could make a difference if you’re using a remote switch in conjunction with a motion sensor.

3 Outlets with 1 Remote is the easiest and the coolest product we’ve purchased in a long time. Just think about signage on your wall up 10 feet from the floor that you can turn on with a remote! How cool is that? pies.

Great Product, Just as Described.

It takes an uncommon battery size, but I found it easily at the store. I actually velcroed the remote to the wall, so it wouldn’t get lost, and use it as a switch. It’s one of the coolest things ever! It’s sure easier than wiring a ceiling light with a switch or a switch to an outlet. Would recommend this seller and this product!

We plugged everything into the outlets and we can turn on 3 different trees and all the decorations out in the sunroom without having to go out and plug them all in one at a time. In my opinion THEY ARE GREAT.

My order arrived quickly and contained one remote with battery, and three outlets. I tried all three outlet right away and they did all work just as described. In fact, I just tested the remote from outside on the opposite side of my house and it STILL WORKED. Yes, the outlets are rather large, but I’m not sure why you couldn’t just use an extension cord if the space is tight. I would definitely recommend this product.

So far they are working perfectly fine. It’s so much easier tuning everything off/on w/these than running around the house to plug/unplug all the millions of thing I have to light up. The only downside, which has been mentioned in other comments is the size of the outlet, they are very large. Even though you only plug it into one outlet, it covers both outlets up, which is a pain b/c you end up running extra extension cords to everything.

I use all three outlets to power three floor lamps and one bankers table lamp. When I’m out of my home I leave the remote by the front door and sometimes take it with me if I plan on returning soon. I thoroughly enjoy being able to enter a lit living room without fumbling. When viewing my home theater I can adjust my lighting without having to cross the room. Glad I took a chance on this device. I also don’t have to worry about sounds from my entertainment system or visitors shutting off any of the outlets.

I have used them for hard to reach lamps. I would have liked the plug insertion to be on the side and not the front because of placement in back of furniture. I wanted to use one on a stairwell behind a narrow chest and could not becuase the chest then stuck out too far from the wall.

I’ve replaced three separate ‘key fob’ controls with a single remote. I’ve had it for a couple of years and have had no problems with it. It would be nice if it had a dohickey on it to allow me to hang it – but it is otherwise perfect.

Not a single issue with the functionality. I use them in a relatively large room to power a fan, a light, and a space-heater. The only issue that puts my review at 4/5 is the size of the unit: I’ve been unable to plug-in another cord into any of the outlets it occupies.
