Did Monster Even Test This Thing Once?, January 6, 2008

I have never reviewed a product on Amazon before, but after using this product for just one day, I felt compelled to warn potential buyers about its fatal flaws. The idea behind this product is great, but it works so erratically that it simply renders it not only unusable, but borderline dangerous. I took mine skiing today. Tomorrow I'm returning it.

The major problem with the device is that the iPod does not respond to the commands from the remote reliably. Most of the time you have to press the skip track or play/pause button repeatedly for the iPod to acknowledge the command. I'm talking like upwards of 10 times from a foot away.

Perhaps the worse manifestation of the aforementioned reliability bug is the volume issue. Many other reviewers have touched on this topic, and I am here to say it is as bad as they declare. When the iPod receives the volume "up" or "down" command, often times it shoots the volume to maximum. Good luck getting it lowered...Read more

As reported, the volume button has a bad habit of blasting all the way to the max but I thought I could live with it. However this is clipped to my backpack with the Ipod inside and it cant even consistently fast forward through songs or skip back and forth.

Monster iEZ Click works so so..., March 19, 2007

I bought this remote for use in motorcycling. The following is an excerpt is from a post I wrote on a motorcycling forum.

It appears that when the ipod's battery starts to run low the the communication between the iEZ transmitter and receiver becomes erratic. This also may be caused by possible RF interference. It's almost as if the receiver only gets 1/2 a command from the transmitter. When I went to adjust the volume up or down it would keep on adjusting and not stop, either blasting my ears or turning the volume completely down. This is a bad thing when you are riding on a twisty road, the ipod is buried away and you can't pull your earphones out. At one point I was litterally stuck for up to a minute with my ipod maxed out unable to do anything. I had to pull off the road to dig out my ipod in order to turn it down.
