MONSTER ML LD300 Illuminessence Remote-Controlled Light Station Dimmer Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent Product, Too Expensive
Comment: We're using this to control the reading light and television in our six-year-old daughters' room. Our first inclination was to purchase a cheap outlet timer to turn the "forbidden devices" off at bedtime, but reality prevented us from doing so. On non-school-nights, we try to be flexible with her reading time; when she's sick, we'll give her extended TV time to encourage her to rest in bed longer. It became obvious we wanted control over them without having to enter the room (not to mention that she's on the second floor and we're typically downstairs when she goes to read...yes, sad to say, laziness is part of the lure of this device).

It would get a perfect score except for the price. The remote is simply amazing, but suffers from the same disease -- the "some Americans will always equate 'best' with 'most expensive'" syndrome. The limitation here is that we would buy many more dimmers if not for the cost.

I still recommend it if you don't mind parting with some serious money.
