5.0 out of 5 stars Does What It Says February 4, 2011

It adapts grounded plugs to non-grounded outlets (3-prong to 2-prong) for US plug types. I bought this for going traveling, actually - most US-to-international plug adapters you find are only two-prong, so if you have something you need to plug in that has a ground prong, it doesn't work. This adapter takes care of that nicely.

This adapter will allow you to use grounded appliances in two-slot outlets, but be sure that the outlet screw is actually grounded. You can test this with a multimeter set to voltage (it should read 120 volts between the ground screw and the smaller side of the receptacle), but if you don't know how to use a multimeter, don't do it. Once you determine that the screw is grounded, unscrew the cover plate screw, plug the adapter in, and screw the coverplate screw back on, with the screw going through the green tab. If the screw isn't grounded, you're not out of luck. Use a portable GFCI (search Amazon for portable GFCI) plugged into the grounding adapter and don't worry about connecting the screw. You can still connect it if you want to, just to prevent someone from unplugging and losing the adapter. Using this adapter on an ungrounded screw and without a portable GFCI will work, but it is dangerous. This product is safe when used with a grounded screw and/or a portable GFCI.

5.0 out of 5 stars Is what it is,
Converts from three prong plug to two perfectly, great to use with the cheap 6 foot extension leads which never have three prongs

4.0 out of 5 stars Works
It works just fine for the money. Keeps the equipment running. One draw back is that it doesn't tightly stay in the socket

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect
This helped whenever I needed to use the vacuum to cleanup the house. We have two prong connections here so this converter helped a lot.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay I guess
This came on time and everything, but when I went to use it, the plastic was keeping me from plugging stuff in and cover the holes a bit. Eventually got it to work though.

Thank you for sending me this. I misplaced my other 3 prong to 2 prong. I found it later so now I have 2. Certain places I go only have 2 prong outlets. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Does what its supposed to
Haven't burned down the house yet. I live in an older place with a lot of 2 prongs so these are life savers if I want to plug in a rice cooker or microwave. Read more

Great lifesaver for us! Apartment only has two 3 prong plugs which is impossible if you have any electronics. Now we can get the computer out of the kitchen sink!

5.0 out of 5 stars Needed
Needed this for our house because apparently it was built without any 3-prong outlets.

Pros: House hasn't caught fire.

Cons: None yet.
