I purchased this item for some European guests to use while visiting my home. They used it to charge cell phones and an electric shaver. After the first day of use the fuse inside the converter blew and had to be replaced. Samsonite provides two spare fuses. I was disappointed it blew the fuse as the appliances were well within the 50W limit of this converter. It worked fine for the rest of their visit so maybe it was just a bad fuse to begin with. Overall I'm pleased with it, but only give it an average rating due to the fuse issue.

Good quality and a useful equipment. If you travel from Europe to USA or Canada with your tools which works with electricity you exactly need this kind of equipment. Price - quality compare is very good.

Samsonite 50 Watt 110/120 V to 220/240 V ConverterI just purchased this converter to use with a curling iron (50 W) that I just bought while in Germany. When the converter arrived, I plugged it in with the iron, and the light came on indicating it was working. I threw the box away. I tried to use it the next day, and it didn't work at all. I tried it in different outlets all over my house, but it just doesn't work. There doesn't seem to be a way to reach the seller, as I would like to return it (even though I don't have the original packaging) and get a full refund. this has been a bad experience and at this point, I wouldn't buy anything from this seller again.
