I needed a backup power adapter for my Macbook Pro Retina Display when traveling. Purchased this one as an open box item. Saved some money and the adapter worked just fine.

Needed a new power adaptor as the cord to the laptop broke off. Best Buy had the correct one in stock. Their web site indicated they had had an open box one for less, but when I got there the info was incorrect however as they felt it was their error they honored the open box price with a new unit. Great customer service!

Works like a charm! I forgot my original on a work trip so had to buy a new one. Always good to have a back up!

I replaced an off-brand charger with this one. I hesitated because of the huge cost difference, but it was so worth it! The 3 pronged cord was so much safer and sturdier than the block plug charger i had. This not only stays plugged in securely, it charges quicker. I'm very happy with this item.

Great quality, solid, with a sleek design. Overall very happy with us. I was very excited that Best Buy had these in stock for curbside pick up. Definitely falls in line with the quality and attention to detail that I have come to expect from Apple.

I recently lost my charger that came with my MacBook Air which is a 45w. So I bought the 85w charger which was the only thing available. I was completely impressed how fast my Mac charged with the this charger! I would recommend this charger for travels. If you were to run out of juice, you can easily get 50% in an hour or less.

I was out of town working and noticed my other power cord was not always charging my laptop. The wires were frayed.
This was the perfect replacement. Cheaper than new computer!!

Exactly what I needed to continue using my laptop. Did not have to order and wait for delivery as it was carried in stock! Perfect. Love the long cord. Wish it was a little cheaper but it wasn't outrageous and I know Pricing is a bit high on Apple products.

I had to grab one of these from my local Best Buy when my original laptop charger failed. This one seems to be holding up well so far. I've been doing my best to only charge it when it's not in use so that there is no crimping of the cord. Hopefully that will make it last longer than the original cord.

Only took 7 years and multiple deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan and a few others but the original one finally is starting to act up. With No more deployments in my future, this one should last outlast the laptop.

This Apple official adapter is the only way to go for MacBook Pros. Do not settle for any other cheaply made item online. Apple covers this for at least a year and sometimes even if you've let it get so twisted the cables inside break, but that is up to Apple. I have had zero defective issues with these.
