Sticky Paws Anti Scratch Tape For Furniture


I never write reviews, but this product made me so mad that I decided to write one. I got these to keep my cats off of my countertops and kitchen table. Within minutes of applying the sticky paws, my cat was on the table walking over the sticky tape without hesitation. Now I am trying to remove the tape, but it has left a sticky residue everywhere that won't come off. I've tried rubbing alcohol and dish soap and the sticky residue is still there. I love how it specifically states in the description that it is easily removed and leaves no residue behind. This product was also very expensive and I could barely cover my countertops before running out of the strips. Save your money...if you want to try something like this, try double-sided tape instead. I had no trouble removing that.Get more detail about Sticky Paws Anti Scratch Tape For Furniture.

Cheapest Innotek ULTRASMART REMOTE TRAINER, 300YDS


This collar has been very helpful with my large standard poodle mix who was inclined to chase joggers and running children. I've had the collar for two and a half years now and have only ever used the shock 3 or 4 times, as my dog instantly learned to respond to the warning tone. The collar allows me to maintain control over him remotely, so that he can be happily off leash. What prompted me to write this review so long after purchasing the collar is the great customer service at Innotek. I lost the remote soon after getting the collar and they replaced it free, then just recently the collar stopped holding a charge and they are sending me a new one for $45 under the limited lifetime warranty, all just with an easy phone call.Get more detail about Innotek ULTRASMART REMOTE TRAINER, 300YDS.

Dogtra No Bark Collar Small to Medium YS300 Order Now


Bought this as a last resort for my dog who barks constantly at people. It's nice because it has a vibrate mode that warns your dog before shocking him. You can also leave it on vibrate, which I usually do and that seems to be enough most of the time. It also has a rechargeable battery which is nice as replacement batteries for no bark collars can get expensive.Get more detail about Dogtra No Bark Collar Small to Medium YS300.

Discount Innotek BC-50B Automatic No-Bark Dog Collar


Between March and November 2009, we purchased eight (8) of the model BC-50B Bark Collars.

At first they seemed to work, for the most part, and it seemed that the dogs would limit their barking when the collars were on, even if they were not working, i.e., batteries were dead.

In time, the collars had no effect on some of the dogs even though they appeared to be working. However, "terminals" and the "rubber" gaskets between the "terminals" and the "box" kept falling off, and some got lost.

Several months ago, we sent an email to Innotek asking if we could BUY a supply of "terminals" and "gaskets", even though we understood that the collars had a one year warranty and this seemed to be a defect in this product. Innotek never responded, and at the present time, we have four (4) collars that we cannot put on the dogs because the "terminals" and "gaskets" have been lost.

We realize that we lost the "terminals" and "gaskets", and Innotek is under no obligation to SELL us replacements: however, if this is the way they deal with customers that have purchased more than a few of their units, what can a customer who only purchased one expect?

We will not be buying anything else that is associated with Innotek.

A copy of everything posted prior to this was sent to Innotek. They responded with the following.

"Thank you for contacting INNOTEK regarding this concern. I apologize that
you did not receiver a response to this matter.

I understand from your e-mail that you originally purchased eight BC-50B
collar receivers, four or which can not be used as the metal contact probes
and rubber grommets are missing. Collar receiver contact probes are sold as
the RK-11 probe kit. This kit includes: one set of short and long probes,
rubber grommets, training probes, and a metal probe wrench. This kit retails
for $9.95 plus shipping and handling.

If you would prefer to purchase this item by telephone please contact our
Customer Care Department at, 800-826-5527. One of our Customer Care
Specialists will be happy to help you. We offer Visa, MasterCard and
Discover payment options. Our business hours are Monday through Friday 8:00
a.m. to 6:30 p.m. ET.

Respectfully,

Innotek Customer Care"


Observations:
1. Innotek's "kit" price is 34% of the cost of an entire new collar, which included shipping and handling, but "shipping and handling" still has to be added to
the "kit" cost;
2. I need one set of probes (short or long) and the rubber grommets for each collar: I don't need nor do I want to pay for long probes, training probes and a
metal probe wrench for each of the collars;
3. Why do I need probes and rubber grommets in the first place? Because the originals fall off. Why do they fall off? Because they are not properly attached
in the first place: a design and/or manufacturing defect. If the probes were properly attached when the unit was produced, there would be no need for a
"kit" to fix the problem. Why does Innotek have a "kit" available for sale? Because Innotek knows about the defect, i.e., probes falling off, and is going
to capitalize on their defect.
4. This appears to be another case of a manufacturer/marketer producing a defective product, and the consumer is stuck with the consequences.

We will not be buying anything else associated with Innotek.

By the way, if rubber chickens hanging on our dogs' collars would reduce the amount of barking that some of our dogs were doing, all of our dogs would be wearing rubber chickens. We applied the same reasoning to the Innotek Bark Collars.Get more detail about Innotek BC-50B Automatic No-Bark Dog Collar.
