Simple and Effective
I purchase this bark collar when it was on special last week and I have to say that I LOVE IT!
I have a 20 lbs dog that was extremely vocal with a high pitch voice so you can image how noisy it could get. I tried training her with different techniques but if you are not consistent those techniques would not work.
With the bark collar the training was instant! Somebody would come knock on the door... one bark and it was over (instead of 15 min of high pitch barking). She now seems more come and relax when somebody come to the door.
She doesn't have the bark collar on strait time, I do take it off at night and I have notice that even if she doesn't have the bark collar on she has lowered the tone of her bark and she doesn't bark as much. I don't have any problems with a dog who bark to let me know if somebody is knocking on the door or if she wants to go outside to do her thing so I believe the bark collar was the best thing for us.
The only minor down side would be that you have to make sure the collar is placed right in front of the dog's throat so you will have to adjust it every now and then. If it is not place properly it will not correct the dog.

Seems to work well
After a week my large 70+lb dog (Lab/Great Pyrenees X) is definitely barking less. Took about a day for her to clue in. She still barks occasionally, but for not as long as before. She seems to know that putting the collar on means she may get a shock.
I like the audible warning (quiet to me, but am sure the dog hears) and then increasing levels of correction.
Easy to setup, easy to adjust. Its not complicated.

Good product for the cost
I purchased this product about one year ago. The collar works aswell or better than as my other bark collars of different brand. I have several beagles who have a tendency to bark. This collar stops their barking. The only down side is that my dogs know when the collar is not on them and they will bark so it has to be on them most of the time. This collar is an excellent product for the price you are required to pay.

wireless fence owners take caution!
This bark collar has accomplished its purpose; our 2 1/2 year old boxer doesn't bark at the neighbors, at cars pulling in the driveway, or any other movement or sound that he used to bark at.
However, this collar makes the exact same beep/correction as our dogs wireless fence collar. The first time he was corrected for barking he thought he was outside his boundaries, but really he was well within them..he became confused and very reluctant to come outside...It took the better part of a day to get him to play frisbee the way he used to..
I knew my dog would catch on so I kept the collar on him for the next 3 days. After a few more corrections he now gets it; no more barking! He also plays in the yard like he used to..

I was Shocked!!
Purchased this collar based on all the positive reviews. Tried it on myself first (on my neck) and found the first level quite a shock. As it states you cannot adjust the level it increases automatically if the dog barks repeatedly. Tried it on my dog and it scared him so much I refuse to use it again. I have a small dog (10 pounds) and it was just way too much for him. Granted he didn't bark for the rest of the evening but it really scared him and me. Perhaps it may work for some but exhaust all other options first and use only as a last resort.

Works well for barking
Doesn't require too many "corrections" for the dog to get the point. Helped us treat our dog "quiet" and "come" when training didn't work.

Great Product for a Great Value!
This bark collar works great for my 80lb Lab! It's true that it reacts to motion, not sound, so I tested it on my forearm before putting it on the dog. I had it at the second highest setting and while it pinched a little bit, it was not painful. It's nice that it provides a small beep before it activates, so you know it's working.
I've had it for nearly a year now and have never had a problem with it, still works like it's brand new! Would recommend this product for anyone with a barking dog! Be warned though, the dog, if he's a clever Lab, may learn how to whine quietly (instead of bark) in order to bypass the collar!

Turns out my dogs ARE trainable!
I was hesitant to go this route because of the debate over whether these collars are humane. I decided my dogs disturbing my neighbours with their incessant barking was more inhumane. I tried it on myself first up to level 3 for a good tingle. Turns out I didn't need to go that high. First hound only needed one shock, the other (a beagle) only two level one shocks about five minutes apart. Best part - only one collar between the two. I switch it every once in a while, but both have remained quiet.

good valued trainer
This has been a great product in correcting annoying bark outbursts from my two dogs. The first time I put in on both dog's their was an instant change in their behavior.
