Worked as expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased two of these converters for my recent journey to Berlin. They worked perfectly, as the Best Buy associated advised they would when he pointed me to these devises for my business trip.

Did not fit outlets in France.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great gadget that connects together nicely. However, the square block for the two prong adapter did not fit the outlets in France where the outlets are round and recessed. So the square block did not fit into the receptacle. Otherwise, no issue. Was able to use successfully in Switzerland.

Compact and did the job
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed an adapter to plug a charging device with an Australian/New Zealand plug into a US outlet. I had lost the original US plug for the device. It's difficult to find an adapter in the US that makes foreign devices work in the US, but this one did the trick. Its compact interlocking design keeps all four adapters together so hopefully I won't lose any of them.

Compact, Light, Easy to Use Adapter
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good compact, small, light adapter that fits plugs in the EU and England. Read the box carefully, this product may not support the electrical outlets of other countries you may visit. This is an ADAPTER, so will not convert voltage. Having said that, most power supplies to laptops already are capable of transforming different power supplies, they just don’t have the right plug scheme. So, the Insignia Plug Adapter worked well. The adapter packs away nicely, taking up minimal luggage space, so, for short business trips to Europe, it works fine. Some things I would like to see improved...... The assembly of different plugs can be connected together for compact storage. After continuous use, the clear plastic piece has already fatigued, and with great certainty, this will be the part that will fail first by cracking, and then you won’t be able to assemble the plugs away nicely. As a temporary solution, you can use a rubber band or piece of tape to hold the plugs together, but, again, you get what you pay for. Also, I haven’t use the plug adapter multiple times to determine the product’s life expectancy, but with gentle use, it should last a long time.

Cover most of your travel adapter needs with this
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plan to travel to various places but don't know which adapter to buy? Look no further. This is the product you need. Does most of the major traveled countries. Be careful to know the difference in voltage and hz frequencies required in your electronics. Some are not forgiving and this device does not adjust but simply adapt plug to outlet configuration.

Q: QuestionDoes it convert 230 volts to 110 volts?
Asked by Dogma47.
- A:Answer No...it does not convert...its just a plug converter, NOT a voltage converter....Are you sure you need a voltage converter? On the back of every computer power supply (or any electronic device) it should say the input and output. My PC says 110 - 240 VAC @ 1.5 amp putting out 20 VAC@4.5 amps....the power supply accepts either 110 or 220 (europe) and supplies at consistent 20VAC. The brick that is the power supply for my laptop throttles down the voltage. Make sure you devices have the 110-240 range and forget the heavy converter...then you can go with this plug.

Q: QuestionIf i have a tablet that came with a UK power cable can i use this to use here in the US until i can get a US version of the plug?
Asked by Newlonater.
- A:Answer Yes, if it just a plug issue. However, if you require a transformer, this will not work. I think tablets, like laptops come with a transformer (the box on the power cable) to allow it to run on "house" current - something in the 100-110 v range @ 55-60 hz.
