    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!

    My daughter's MacBook Pro power cord was not working properly. I checked Best Buy online and found it in store, ordered it and picked it up. The best part is that it was available at my local Best Buy store in Harrisburg and I didn't have to travel to the Apple Store in Lancaster to get it, or wait for it to be shipped from Apple.

    This charger works great! I have bought two non-apple brand chargers over the last year and they die SO quickly! They may be cheaper, but you end up paying more when you need to buy them so quickly. I definitely recommend this product.

    This Apple power adapter is made for the MacBook Pro that I own. So, I expected it to work. It was nice to be able to pick it up from Best Buy, but all Apple after-market prices are too high! Not happy with that, but this item is priced the same everywhere.

    The charger was exactly what I needed to replace the damaged one for my Mac Laptop. Nothing to intricate or crazy about the product other than it worked and included everything I needed. I do think it’s pretty expensive for just a charger though.

    Long cord makes it very useful with the option to make the cord shorter depending on situation.

    Apple always has top of the line products and I continue to buy them at Bestbuy because they have everything in stock. So far I’ve had this new power adapter for a month and It works perfectly. I recommend buying all products for apple through Best Buy not an online second hand store!

    Expensive for a laptop charger, my last charger lasted me 6 years and just because I took care of it so much. I had not tears on it but even still it warped at the end where the cable meets the adapter itself. Quality of cable needs to improve or cable needs to be thicker so it doesn’t warp.

    I always buy a 2nd power supply to take on the road with me. It just gets annoying plugging and unplugging and remembering to pack all of the cords I need. This one stays in my tech bag with the other travel cords along with a power strip. This one helps things charge quickly and efficiently.

    The photo is slightly misleading with it just showing a white square with no cords coming off it. It is exactly the same as the power cord that comes with a macbook when you first purchase it. It includes the extension cord. I am using it for my macbook pro Mid-2014.

    I cannot live without my Apple iPhone. My existing power adapter finally gave up the ghost. I could have gone to the Apple store online or in-person to replace my adapter with the Apple-85W MagSafe 2 Power Adapter with Magnetic DC Connector and pay a big price, but I knew I could probably get it at Best Buy for a better and affordable price. I got mine at Best Buy, am satisfied that it's the real thing and operates with Apple efficiency and from Best Buy where should it present any problems, I can go to Best Buy with it and replace or refund it without a headache.

    If you can make do with the charger that comes with the computer, try to. Apple is notorious for high-priced cables and chargers and this is no different. I needed one for travel and one to stay at home, so I bit the bullet and got it. This lost two stars for price, not for performance. You might want to try to find a third-party charger or get one used.

    Took a while to find one for my old Mac. So, I assume that scarcity is the reason for the price… I needed it though, & it works as it should

    It works exactly as expected. I was traveling and I brought the wrong adapter. I needed on quickly. A quick check online found several Best Buy stores had the adapter in stock so I was able to buy one and get back working.

    The usual Mac adapter

    Not sure what to say in a review, since as a Mac user, this is my only option. I replaced my old one, since it suffered the usual failure of the wiring near the magsafe connector. I've never had one of these power supplies actually burn out. It's always a cable failure at one of the attatchment points. I guess you just try to be as gentle as possible with them, and get as much life out of them as you can.
