The best way to categorize a product and list whether or not the product is worth your money is by studying the reviews which have been put by various users. Reviews depict the true nature of the product as they help you conclude to a right decision.

First talking of negative review, we have a user who has been thoroughly dissatisfied with this gadget claiming it to be "worse than useless". He goes on to say that this is one of the most frustrating products he has ever come across. He says that the product works fine only for one third times and the rest of the times, it fails to deliver the true performance as it requires having the Xbox switched on while viewing the television. If the Xbox goes to sleep mode as it is not in use, the problem recurs and the Xbox needs to be in active mode for right connection to be established. Not only this, the user even complains of the switching between three multimedia interfaces to be problematic as he had to manually do it to get a proper display or restart the system to fix the bug. Either of the two options is definitely frustrating. Though, the user says at the end that he might have been delivered a faulty device yet the warning bells have been given.

Coming to the positive review, a user claims it to be a "great little device" as his work of operating more than a single multimedia interface along with his television set has been satisfied. He is also satisfied with the switching facilities and remarks there are no more hassles of swapping cables.

He says that the device delivers it true promise and can conveniently switch back to the input source which was the latest to be plugged in. another user claims that the auto sensing feature is absolutely perfect as the device smoothly switches intelligently from one device to another. Thus, to come to a conclusion, we can say that the product seems to be a good one but only if you are lucky enough to get the right one. No doubt, buying this product would be a gamble. It may be technically sound but the chances of getting a faulty product could ruin your purpose. So, wish yourself all the good luck before purchasing this technically sound gadget. Thus, this product has its share of hiccups.
