3.0 out of 5 stars Works fine but construction is flimsy., September 25, 2006

By	JanSobieski (United States of America) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Yeah, this adaptor worked just fine but it was poorly constructed and flimsy.

REMEMBER, this is an adaptor NOT a converter despite appearances to the contrary. An adaptor merely adapts US male plugs to fit their European or Asian female wall socket counterparts. You will still have a 220 V power source. A converter transforms the 220 V from Europe to the 110 commonly found in the USA. You will also need to pay close attention to the wattage of the converter. A converter that will run your wife's hairdryer will not necessarily work on devices requiring less wattage. Many, if not most, converters have switches to handle both load levels.

Most computer and camera rechargers will work with a simple adaptor since they are designed to handle either 110 V or 220 V. You need only look at the label on your charger to determine what voltage it is designed for.

I'm still looking for a well made solidly built adaptor.

3.0 out of 5 stars Shoddy Construction, But does the trick., June 26, 2007

By	M. Giguere (San Francisco) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently purchased this product for a trip to the UK. While it did the job when my macbook pro power adapter was plugged into it, every time I inserted the adapter it felt as though the Samsonite Worldwide Adaptor Plug was going to snap in half. On top of that the adapter fell out with even with the slightest touch causing me to use exceptional grace as though playing jenga upon every insertion and I couldn't put even a minute amount of tension on the chord without the adapter falling out.
