 Excellent cradle when unpowered December 30, 2008
Sean G. Mauser
When I first got it, I was initially disappointed that it only charges one battery at a time, and that you have to remove the pack from the Wiimote (and remove any sleeve you have on it).
The battery packs never held much of a charge out of the box, and now it's become even worse. They can spend all day charging and then last barely an hour before dying. Every time the indicator changes to the "charged" color, pushing in the battery pack and sliding it around a little will change it to "charging". It may just be me, but my station sometimes won't even get power, and I have to fiddle with the cable going into the base.
Still, it's a decent Wiimote cradle at best, ignoring the charging functions entirely. If you need some way to keep your Wiimotes vertical for easy access (and are too lazy to craft one yourself) this is a great product. You'll have to take off any sleeves you use (or peel it back a little) but straps are fine. There's even a perfect place to keep spare AA batteries, but I don't recommend placing anything there while powering the LED lights (they are only there for aesthetics, so you're not required to have it plugged in to hold your Wiimotes).
I suggest picking these up used from a likely unsatisfied customer, perhaps even seeking out "as is" or broken models, solely for a lump of plastic to keep your controllers in. But do make sure you don't spend more than $5 for it.
 Charger November 11, 2008

What can I say it is a charger and it works for just that. I would like to have gotten a charger for all four of my remotes but this one is great for two!

Do not recommend. The remotes worked with AA rechargable batteries, however, the charger did not work properly. Amazon has not replied to my message I left about the product. I purchased them as a gift and they do work well with AA rechargable batteries.
This is the only product I've purchased from Amazon that I've had problems with.
not worth the money. December 28, 2007

This product is not worth the money. It only charges when the Wii is powered on.
 Great with a small drawback! November 29, 2007

Love the product, it will save us a ton of $$$ in batteries, but I wish it were possible to leave the colored "skins" on the wii remots and still use this charger. We have one remote for each child (with their corresponding color) and it would have been nice to continue to be able to use them. But that's a small thing. I LOVE how much we will save it not having to buy new batteries all the time!
