Cheap product but does a good job for the purpose its built for.
It does the job. Its a bit cheap and plasticy as you would expect from a hornby product. I had to remove a bit of plastic inside jamming the switch, not sure what use it had because it fitted into it somehow but works fine now without it. On a brighter note, it runs the locos smooth and well.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Lightweight and Basic
Bought to replace old 900 power controller. Controller appears to be well built but a bit flimsy, transformer is a standard piece of equipment and of good quality. The controller lacks the versatility and power of the 900 which had 2 levels of power. Control of the item on the track is adequate but not great. This item is ok for a beginner with a very small set up. I would suggest that it is slightly overpriced.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Fair price but....
Tidy unit, good quality, but lack of instructions major problem. direction switch only moves when powered down/off. stated as ideal for beginners, so info vital. cut out operates at least accidental short or overload, & stays off for ridiculously long spell/ or needs plug/adaptor removed as it seems to have cut-out too. This causes long periods of inability to operate when fault is corrected.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Hornby controller
The train controller is from a set with some some surface scratches but was tested by seller . It works well and is easy to use by turning the front knob. Direction of the train is directed by sliding an arrow bar , left or right. Remember to return the knob to zero before changing direction. If a train shorts the controller, it takes a few minutes to reset.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

As it says on the tin
It is just as per description and has replaced my children's old controller, the only thing I did not take into account is the connector to the track ( I am not clued up on things like this), the old controller was an old version and had a different connector. However that was easily sorted. So there is no issues on the product I bought. It was well packaged and arrived very quickly.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Easy to set up and use
I have bought it for my Grandson who lives in Kenya. I liked the safety feature which foes not allow him to change the trains direction with out first turning the control knob to zero. The casing seems a little thin but I think they will mount it in a box to protect it. Otherwise it is how I expectrf ot to be,Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

performs perfectly for my purposes
I needed a 16v ac transformer to power a smoke generator for photographing smoke swirls, this transformer and controller allows me to vary the smoke output, no train or track required. very pleased with them both.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good for starting out.
I'm not an expert on controllers by any means, but I got one to test some locos before my Layout takes shape and yes it worked ok. and yes I'd recommend it for newbies and Diddy sets. But I will still be powering my Layout in the usual way.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
