### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great first time buying one

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Brake Controller
*by C***N on April 5, 2010*

I bought this brake controller for $30 on Amazon NIB. Saw it at walmart that evening for $65 so I got a very great deal. I also purchased the quick connect harness for my truck and had this thing installed in literally less than 10 minutes. Since it's setup for 3 braking axles it is highly effective with single or double braking axles as well. I pulled a 16' car hauler 1300 miles one weekend and 1/2 of that distance was loaded with an 82 volkswagon pickup truck, diesel engine and multiple parts from a vw rabbit. The terrain varried from rolling hills to flats and then some pretty large hills. The controller worked as expected with no trouble. It was extremely easy to setup and use. The digital display makes setting the brakes the easiest ever. I have had multiple controllers that had the little dial that you turn and they can be troublesome when trying to get them set. Now all I have to do is hit the up or down arrow and it's set to the braking power I need.
