Customer Review: A Great and Reliable Product
Summary: 5 Stars
For the past year I've been getting really heavy into Zune and Zune realated products. It all started with the Zune software for the XBOX 360 for playing your music from your computer to your 360. Rather than over filling your hard drive with memory that'll slow down your 360. Well after that I was hooked and the Zune FM Transmitter is no exception. I use it all the time when I'm on the road, and I find it more cost effective than just burning a CD every week or so when something new hits the radio waves.
Well for the FM Transmitter I find it extremely user friendly with the 2 preset stations and the fact that you can seek or just cycle through till you can find a clear channel. Also the transmitter is magnetised so it hooks right on to the power plug which makes it look cleaner as well. The music quality is great and I can't find anything wrong with the product at all. Now finding a clear radio station thats a different story, but it's not the Zunes fault it gets over powered by a stronger signal and thats gonna happen whether you want it to or not. Even the Zune will take over the radio wave and act like nothings wrong, providing it's not a very strong channel. Also another interesting trick is the zune will auto update and make the channel your on, say Zune which means it's taking that station and locking it in. This product goes extremely well with a Microsoft Zune 4GB / 8GB Auto Windshield Holder

So, I am currently stationed in Iraq, and I got tired of hearing the music they play over here when driving around the base, so I got this to go with my Zune. I have had ZERO issues with any sound quality, static, etc. Keep in mind, the airwaves over here are "dirty", as in they don't have an FCC to regulate transmissions. So a station that is static one day, may be transmitting the next day, or 5 minutes later, it all depends on the time of the day and your location. Well, I don't have to worry about it as this device does a good job of transmitting over it. Yes, there were a couple of times my music was interrupted by a more powerful transmission, but I just re-tuned to another frequency and no problem. It has two presets, so I have them set up for the 2 least used frequencies. If one starts to get overpowered, I only have to hit two buttons (one on the radio and one on the device) and I am back to listening to my music. How many times I have seen people talking and or texting while driving in the states, I find it comical that people would complain about hitting two buttons that take no thought. Also, when not in use, there is a little "storage" cap for the connector. This is extremely handing, especially over here with all the dust, it keeps my connector clean. Also, the display is magnetic and attaches to the power. If you keep the cord untangled, you should have no issue. A great device and a life saver!Customer Review: Works perfectly with a bit of tweaking

I was unsure about purchasing this product after having read so many reviews indicating that it doesn't work all that well. However, I have a car that doesn't have a port for an MP3 player and because the price of the gadget was good, I decided to give it a try. I'm pleased to say that it works like a charm--once I figured out some of its quirks.
The little manual that comes with the unit says that the unit generally works better if the Zune itself is some distance from the tuner half of the unit. I found the exact opposite to be true. When I first hooked my Zune up, I attached the tuner to the charger and the sound quality was really poor with lots of annoying static. I moved the Zune around a bit and found, to my surprise, that when I moved it closer to the tuner, the sound improved. I detached the tuner from the charger and set it in my cup holder and placed my Zune on top of it. Voila! I had perfect sound quality.
I'm quite attached to my Zune and purchasing additional gadgets such as this one has made me love it even more. The vehicle in question has a six-disc in-dash CD changer but I doubt I'll even use it anymore, thanks to this device. It's so much easier and more convenient to have my whole musical library in my Zune than it is to have to cart loads of CDs around with me.
Customer Review: Great option for Zune owners

Bought this for my wife. She had previously used a Belkin TuneCast II FM Transmitter for MP3 Players (Black), and while it worked decently, this one works better.
Pros:
Charges while playing
IMO, better sound quality than those that use the headphone jack
The Zune pad can hold the Zune in place, even on an inclined dash
The autotune feature works well to find a station, but it does take a little work
Screen can attach to the power adapter, meaning it's not laying in your floorboard waiting to be stepped on
Cons:
Memory for only 2 stations
Cable from the screen to the Zune can be short in some circumstances (leaving the screen attached to the power adapter)
When using this, you can't control the Zune volume on the player. Not a big deal for me, but some people may care
Overall, I love this. We've used it in multiple cars and multiple cities in Upstate SC, and only had to change stations once. If you have a Zune and don't have a way to directly connect it to your car stereo, this is probably your best option. And the price is usually unbeatable (bought mine here for $26, and I see now it's available for $13.60).

Let me first say that my experience with "Crazy-Tech-Dealz" was beyond exellent! The item was almost in perfect condition! The original packaging was included along with the guide book, protective cover sheet on the screen, and orginial box. I ordered my item on a Monday and received it on a Thursday which is extremely fast for an item of stardard shipping. The Zune car pack works perfectly and is so small and compact that you can barely notice it in your car.
The sound is incredible and it is so easy to use. You really cant go wrong with this item. It is perfect to listen to all of your favorite songs while you are driving..... no more of those annoying CD's falling from your visor on top of your car mirror. It looks sheek and modern. I recomend this item if you have a Zune because it allows you to stay connected with your musis outside and inside your car!
I give this item 5 out of 5 stars for being almost in perfect conditions. If I dint know that this product was used, I could have reasily misteken it for a new one.
My experience with Crazy-Tech-Dealz was incredible because my e-mail was answered the day I sent it out, my item was promptly shipped, and over all I rate this seller 5 out of 5 for the speedy service!
