this power supply cord works perfectly and fits my computer with out any problems, just as it stated. It even looks exactly like the original.

However, the one and only draw back to it is the length of the cord is about 18" shorter and can be somewhat of an annoyance since the original cord was not very long to begin with.

So if you are looking for a good working cheap replacement like I was, then it works, but if you dont want to be so close to an electrical outlet, then maybe buy a more expensive one which might be longer.

good product all together.

I bought this because the power cord on my Dell Vostro 1505 stopped working (which seems to happen too often with Dell products) and the price of this generic replacement was certainly right. Although the price can't be beat, for my next purchase I am going a different route for two reasons:
- I was very disappointed in the length - six feet might sound long, but it is much shorter than the manufacturer's standard and I really was not able to use the cord without an extension cord (which I had to buy).
- The build quality was never great and now the cord has stopped working properly after about 3 months. Although it will still barely power the computer, I recieve error messages about the improper adapter, the battery will not charge at all using the adapter, and the computer runs very sluggishly. For the price, I didn't expect it to last very long, but it should hold out longer than 3 months.

If you are okay with a very short cord and only need to use it for a very short time, this might be a cost-effective way to go. Otherwise, you may want to look for a different replacement option.

I needed a replacement for my Vostro 1500 and didn't want to spend $60, so I bought these. I was praying that it wouldn't blow up on me or burn out but it's still going and works. Cable is a shorter than the original but I know that when I purchased this.

EDIT 12/12/10:

still works
