The price was right at the time.

EDIT: We purchased this remote training collar almost exactly 2 months ago. It worked pretty well for those 2 months. We loved the features it has and appreciated the price. However, from day one, the static correction button (was poorly made) would get stuck if pushed, so we couldn't use it. About a week ago, I turned on the remote and it started beeping and the screen kept flashing. Now it won't stay on for more than 2 seconds. Would I purchase another? The answer is no. My next training collar will be less budget friendly, and hopefully much better quality. ORIGINAL REVIEW: We purchased this product to assist us training our 7 month old great dane. It is really great so far, especially for the price! It has several great features. We love that there is a lock/unlock switch on the remote to prevent accidental corrections. It is also nice that we can turn the remote off when it is not being used. We like that the static level is adjustable, and that we also have the beep and vibrate options. The collar fits our dog nicely right now, but she still has a lot of growing to do. It remains to be seen if she will outgrow this collar. The fact that you can train up to 9 dogs using the one remote is nice, although we only need it for one dog at the moment. Additionally, the remote and the receiver charge pretty quickly. Now the cons. The receiver is quite big and bulky. It would look completely ridiculous on a small dog. The receiver prongs are not centered (they are on the bottom), so the collar sits kind of awkwardly on the dog's neck. The receiver has no on/off button should you wish to turn it off. The set comes with only one charge cord, so you have to charge the remote and/or receiver one at a time. Also, this training collar did not come with anything to test the static like some other training collars do. If you want to test it out, you have to zap yourself to know if it is working. Overall, great for the price and has several nice features.
