1.0 out of 5 stars Poor Quality, August 12, 2008

By	Jack Xu - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I read some of the reviews, and it seems like some people got theirs and it worked fine. However, my lock was poorly made. I could tell from the start it wasn't high quality because the numbers did not slide very well, as you would expect from a nice bike lock or combination lock.

After inserting the lock into my laptop, I was unable to scramble the code because the numbers were stuck. I called customer service (which was outsourced to another country, therefore it took them forever to understand my problem) and they told me to return it to get another one. Gotta love that.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent item, once you figure out how to set it up, August 13, 2009

By	Jason "yankees368" (Woodmere, NY United States) - See all my reviews

As previous reviews have noted, the instructions on this thing look like they were written by a 2 year old. Here is how to set this lock:

1. Set the lock to all 0's
2. Insert the metal key into the bottom of the lock, with the 2 yellow dots.
3. Twist the metal key until the 2 yellow dots line up, creating a yellow line.
4. Scramble to your new code
5. CAUTION: MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT MOVE THE COMBO AT ALL DURING THIS STEP. It is very easy to accidentally move the combo a number or 2 during this step, and it will ruin your lock for good (if you do not remember the missed-entered combo. Now, twist the metal key back to its original position, breaking the yellow line back into 2 yellow dots. You are now down.

To LOCK the product into a device:

1. Tie the lock around something, anything, using the loop.
2. Set the lock to the correct code.
3. Insert the lock into the device, and then turn 90 degrees. If don't properly, the lock will not come out of the device, BUT YOU ARE NOT DONE.
4. While pushing the button on the end of the lock, scramble the lock to an incorrect code. This should lock the lock in place, and prevent it from spinning in the device. Double check with a few tugs that the device is secure.

To UNLOCK:
1. Re-enter correct code
2. Push button
3. Turn 90 degrees
4. Remove from device.


Wasn't that easy, Kensington?

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have - just the BEST!, August 7, 2008

By	Michelle Cotton - See all my reviews

Ok, I have to say, this product is the best! I have a new MacBook Pro and often bring it with me to the coffee shop. Before buying the ComboSaver I would bring my MacBook Pro with me whenever I left the table - - even if it was just for a minute (hey, you never know and it would only take a second for someone to walk away with my MacBook). Anyway, I wanted somedthing that was secure, easy to use and light weight enough to bring with me - - and I found everything I was looking for in the ComboSaver (including piece of mind). For what I spent on my Macbook not to mention everything that I have stored, it was money well spent! I would recommend this to EVERYONE! Like I said, it only takes a minute for someone to walk away with your laptop, I'm thrilled that mine is safe!
