1.0 out of 5 stars Very unreliable, avoid !, November 22, 2009

I purchased this for my boyfriend's laptop after my cat chewed the original power adapter for it. It worked fine for about 6 months.

The day before we were to depart on a trip to Vietnam, the power dapter failed. I didn't have time to deal with Kensington, and it was too late to return it to the store, so I did something admittedly unethical - I went back to the store where I bought it, purchased another one, and returned the failed adapter, since the box didn't have the serial number.

The second adapter worked OK, but only for about 8 months. I haven't bothered getting it fixed yet. I would suggest you don't waste your time with this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy it b/c it's cheaper than a new laptop!, October 3, 2008

I've had the product for several weeks, and I haven't had a problem with it. There are many attachments to choose from, and it was easy to choose the one I needed. Only complaint: the cord which plugs into the wall outlet is short. I'm using my old one (since there was nothing wrong with it), and it works fine. Good Luck!

For those of you who are familiar with the OEM power adapter failure rate, this one can be a small miracle, especially if you own more than one notebook. While it's hardly the sturdiest, most robust piece of computer equipment on the market, it's a lot cheaper than a replacement from the notebook's manufacturer, sometimes by 60 dollars depending on the requirement. It's easy to set up, easy to use (plug it in and go once you have the right tip on), and seems to work well enough.

Other reviews have mentioned unreliability, but thus far mine hasn't had any problems. The only complaint I have is the difficulty switching the voltage settings; the "safety" pin is a little too hard to disengage to change voltage ranges.
