This simple AV selector is ideal for people using multiple game consoles (especially for TV's with only one RCA input). The selector is practical and is a great value at $10. It was nice that it includes an approx. 6ft RCA AV cable to run from the switch to the TV (or receiver). No more hassle with switching cables behind the TV.

The product that I received is similar to what is pictured, but there are differences. The biggest difference is the Input Selector Switch on the unit that I received is Yellow not Gray as pictured. This selector switch only has ~about 1/4 inch of travel where one is supposed know where to stop moving the switch in order to make contact to the desired inputs. The "A" connection is the hardest to make contact. The product can be made to work if you just use two inputs and not the full complement of three inputs.

I did not contact anyone as the product arrived in an un-padded envelope through the US mail that was partially ripped open. The combination Cardboard and Vac-U-Form packaging had double the Chinese characters as there were English letters. I guess I received my $10.00 lesson for the year...

I haven't even made it to the testing stage to see if all 3 inputs work. There are several reviews saying 1 or 2 or even all 3 inputs don't work so we'll see. I'm doubtful. The RCA cables provided with the product are the thinnest and cheapest feeling I've ever seen. I plugged the video cable into the back of the TV without applying much force at all. Didn't move it perpendicular to the jack in the slighest. The end of the pin snapped off in the jack, creating a very frustrating situation with the TV's future at risk. Thankfully they don't call me MacGyver for nothing. I had to heat up the end of a needle while holding it with pliers, push the red hot needle tip into the plastic middle of the stuck pin and wait for it to cool and then pull it out with said pliers.

I find it ridiculous that the cheapness of this product nearly cost us a TV, or the expense of taking it somewhere and having someone else deal with it. A real piece of crap.

Works as discribed and was easy to hook up. Even though it was promoted for game players, it works fine for switching between my Roku, VCR and DVD player

I was impressed with this product, it's size will fit in your hand and takes no electric to use. I use this to switch between my three game consoles so I can have all three connected to my home theater system. The size makes it easy to place on a table where the game consoles are, which it takes up very little space. I recommend it for anyone with multiple gaming systems. My 9yr old can even use it.
