3 out of 5 stars Inexpensive but not perfect   January 5, 2009
This product is good for its price. You can stick it into the tape deck to play anything that uses a 3.5 mm jack. However, the problem is that you hear this hissing sound when you use this. Tried on several cars with the same result. You might want to spring for a FM transmitter instead if you want a better sound.


1 out of 5 stars Works OK but mechanical noises were too much to overcome   November 23, 2008
Bought this to play tunes from my iPhone 3G in my car. Works as advertised and sound quality was OK, but the unit rattles and crackles in the tape player so much and so loudly that I just couldn't stand it. Very distracting - completely overshadowed the otherwise acceptable performance of the unit.

I'm taking this thing back and looking for a more solidly built unit to do the job.



3 out of 5 stars Great at first.   November 20, 2008
I've read some reviews before I bought this, and many people said that it eventually starts skipping, didn't think this would happen to me, but it did. Just recently. I bought this June 19 08, so it took only 5 months for this to happen. It changes sides 2 or 3 times, then the cassette gets ejected. Don't buy this. Unless you don't care about paying $8 every 5 months for a cassette adapter.


1 out of 5 stars not a star product   November 12, 2008
snapped it in the deck... sound out of only one channel... every other function (recorded cassette, am fm radio) works both channels... returned it... like neil young said, "when i got it home it was a piece of crap"... and a flimsy piece of crap at that


5 out of 5 stars Love Love Love this iPod Belkin Cassette Adapter   October 15, 2008

I tried one of the FM receiver adapters to listen to my iPod in the car, but it was junk, especially compared to the cassette adapter...fortunately I have both cassette & cd capabilities in my vehicle...I recommend this to anyone who has a cassette player in their vehicle & wants the option of listening to their iPod through their vehicle's speakers!
