Tools and Hardware Reviews of Ontel HANDYS-CD6 Wireless Light Switch
Customer Review: Cheap made China product-easy to break!! BEWARE!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
When I bought this in the store, I was delighted! It worked exactly as described and it make my life a whole lot easier-until after about 2 months it broke. Of course I threw away the receipt so I'm screwed. One month after I bought the first one, I bought another since I thought it was great. Well, that one broke after 1 week of usage. Needless to say I threw away the recipt. TWO of these wireless light switches and they broke. Come on now!
The product is made in CHINA and it stands up to China quality-JUNK!
Don't say I didn't warn you.
Customer Review: Great idea, if it worked...
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought first one - it worked a few times, then stopped. The light had gone out on the plug part. Bought another one - it worked to turn the light on, but not off, then stopped working entirely...bummer...Customer Review: Worked 1 time!
Summary: 1 Stars
I plugged this into my TV and it worked as stated. I unplugged it and tried it on another appliance and I couldn't even get the light on the wall receiver to register. Not worth the money! I at least got a refund for the price of the product.Customer Review: No more climbing over the couch to turn on the light
Summary: 5 Stars
The electrician that wired our condo must have been lazy as most of the switches in our place control outlets that are located less than 5 feet away from them. We also have switches that we can't figure out what they control (probably the neighbors garage). Our current living room light is located in the area between our two couches plugged into an outlet which of course does not have a switch associated with it. This product solved that problem. The switch housing is a little bulky but not a big deal at all. There are two install options: adhesive tape and two small screws. I went ahead and used the screws. Install is a breeze. Plug the unit into the outlet, plug the device into the unit and place the switch on the desired location of your wall. I placed the switch about 15 feet from the unit and it works flawlessly. This is a great product and I would highly recommend it if you're in a similar "switchless" situation.Customer Review: It broke after 63 days -- 3 days out of warranty
Summary: 2 Stars
This item worked fine for 62 days. On the 63rd day I flipped it off a bit too quickly after I flipped it on -- not that this should matter -- and then it wouldn't turn off after I turned it on again. I disconnected everything; it didn't help. I took out the battery, then reinserted it, then reconnected everything. It turned the light on again -- but then it wouldn't turn off (again). So I found the warranty, and discovered that it expired... 3 days ago!
This is a product that fulfills its warranty period of being guaranteed to last at least 60 days -- and not one week more -- certainly the shortest warranty of any consumer product I have ever bought. Even if it had failed before the end of the warranty, I'd have to pay return shipping AND $6.50 to replace it (that fee is probably double what it costs them to manufacture it). Don't waste your money!
