Aetertek AT-216S-350W Remote Dog Training Shock Collar, 2 Dog

I purchased this for my two large dogs to train them not to go ballistic when someone rings the doorbell. I don't need to use the shock feature, the audible beep startles them enough. I wanted one remote to control two separate collars independently. This was shipped quickly and was easy enough to set up, but only worked a couple of weeks before the remote malfunctioned. Instead of beeping Collar One or Collar Two, every action would affect both collars. Amazon promptly sent me a new one, so we'll see how long this works.

Beyond the remote malfunction however, the collars themselves are very cheap plastic and ultra long. I have two 100 pound dogs and the collars have a good 5 inches of excess material. And the eyelets are similarly cheap. There are very sharp edges enough to draw a bit of blood while I was handling one so I had to file them down before putting them on my dogs. I would advise spending a bit more to get something of higher quality.

These products appear to be very low quality. This is the second order that I am returning for replacement. The first set I ordered one of the collar was DOA (wouldn't turn on at all). I returned it for replacement and on the second set one of the collars stopped pairing with the remote after approximately one week. (you have to re-pair the collars with the remote every time after you charge them) I am returning this item for replacement one more time but if I have any more problems I am simply going to return them for a refund. When the collars do work they work fine, but getting them to work or to stay working is the issue. Buyer beware.

I bought this product mainly because I have 2 dogs that I want to train (sometimes together) and I want to be able to train them "off leash" so the range was important to me.

First, the product claims "Solid remote range of up to 400-yard". The range I experienced was more like 4 feet. Any more than that and I had little reliability (and yes, the batteries were fresh and/or charged). In fairness though, I'm not certain the range was 100% at fault here as it only seemed to have about a 70% reliability rate even within a couple feet. My guess is that the transmitter simply didn't send the signal properly all of the time.

Second, training 2 dogs at once can be hard with this remote. The transmitter can handle up to 3 receivers but can only send to one at a time. As you see in the picture there are icons that represent the (up to 3) dogs/receivers you're working with and a side button to switch between them. The indicator itself is a tiny, and I mean TINY blue LED telling you which receiver is currently active. When you're walking/moving it's very hard to see at a glance and even more difficult in daylight. The button also tended to skip receivers so it was difficult to keep track without checking constantly. I would have it on Dog 1, press once to go to Dog 2 and find that it is actually on Dog 3 etc.

Even when the switcher worked correctly, which in fairness was about 80% of the time, I found it difficult to operate quickly with 2 dogs. Correcting one, then trying to quickly switch and correct the other was difficult but probably could be done with practice if the switch could be relied upon.

When it did work though, it was highly effective. I like the fact that it had 7 shock levels as well as a tone and a vibrate. One of my dogs needed a level 4-5 while the other responded to lvl 1, so that was nice to have.

Overall though, it just didn't work well enough or reliably enough for us so it has to go back.
