Convenient little cableJul 19, 2007
By Russell Belfer I'm fairly pleased with this little retractable cable. Fortunately, I had read the other reviews, so I was not surprised by the short length and it works for me. Some things you should know:
* As other reviewers mention, this is not a 6' cable. The technical details have the correct 2.5' length, but the description is incorrect.
* The retractor mechanism is a little cheap and I've gotten it tangled a couple of times. That being said, I've always been able to untangle it and it has recovered.
* The rubber around the plug ends is a good size for iPods and most stereo inputs, but it is too wide for the audio jack in an iPhone. I took a sharp knife to one end of the cable and shaved down the sides, then it worked fine even for the recessed iPhone jack. This wasn't too hard to do, though that cable end doesn't look too pretty now.
In spite of these reservations, the cable works well, the audio quality seems fine, and it is small, convenient, and nicely functional.

There's a better choice...Jan 13, 2008
By AmazonMan Not horrible but I bought it at the same time as I bought a much better similar product- Cables Unlimited Zip-Linq Male/Male Retractable 3.5mm Stereo Cable.
The Cables Unlimited one is much sturdier and a little longer. After using the two, it seems that the Scosche (this product) does not expand and retract as fluidly as the cables 2 go one. I feel like I'm going to break the Scosche one every time I use it. Also, the Scosche one is extreeemely short and I found the Cables Unlimited one to be a much more practical size, especially considering they retract to the same size anyway.
I'd definetely recommend the CablesUnlimited one. I bought both. Learn from me.

worksOct 24, 2007

This product is perfect for use in my Accord. It's just long enough that I can hold my MP3 player while it's plugged into the auxiliary jack.
I don't have much else to say. It is just a cable and it does what it's supposed to do.

Broken in about a monthFeb 29, 2008
By Lisa Kopek
"Lisa K"
This cable worked fine... while it worked. About a month of regular use, and I was having to shimmy the connectors in order to hear the music in stereo. Not long after that, the connection didn't work at all. I purchased a new, cheap, non-retractable cable, and it has been going strong since I replaced this one.

Scratchy Poor ConnectionAug 26, 2009
By K. Rogers Maybe I just got a bad one, but it was definitely a piece of junk. It seemed to fit too loosely in the jack. I had to do that thing where you twist it around in the jack to try to get good sound. Scritchy scratchy. And I never did get the full sound.
I've replaced it with a non-retractable good quality Belkin cable which fits tightly in the jacks and works great. Save your money on this thing and spend a little more on something reliable.
