Review of Mosquito Magnet 1100MM Pro

Purchased a MM Pro in the summer of 2000. Worked great for two years, then in July of 2002, it wouldn`t stay on. Called customer service a few times, did everything they told me to, but eventually they sent me a new power unit under warranty. That lasted a little more than one year; in 2003, we started having problems with it again. Called customer service today (July 5, 2004 -- no wait for service rep). Did what they asked. Appears that the muffin fan is dead. Asked about replacing it -- they don`t have any parts information. Not under warranty, must replace head for $350 or "upgrade" to Pro 2004 for $600. I asked them about reliability -- they said the new Pro is more reliable; don`t know if I want to spend $600 to find out.

I also bought a Defender last year from Home Depot. Still working this year. I use a bicycle pump instead of a CO2 cartridge on the quick-clear valve. Works every time.

Well, it's 2005 now, and the Defender won't run for more than 6 hours or so.Forget these things.Get a fogger.

Overall I give the concept 5 stars -- when they're running, these guys suck up lots of mosquitoes. But I give the implementation one star -- when they go on the fritz, which at least the Pro units seem to do in one or two years, they're an expensive lawn ornament.
