    The magnetic attraction isn't as strong as my previous adapter. My major problem is I believe I need a new battery. The light on the adapter remains orange. The battery indicator does not move above 1%. If God forbid, I accidentally knock the adapter out, the power turns itself off. After reattaching the adapter, the computer restarts. It's getting tiresome.

    My dog bit my MacBook Air charger cord so I need to buy a new one. I notice that my laptop heats up while charging and using it, so I don't use it when I charge it. This charger works faster than what I used to have. It works good so far.

    My husband needed a new power adapter for his older MacBook Pro laptop. This was $66 in Best Buy and I was able to price match for almost half that. He loves the fact that this is an Apple brand power adapter as the knock off brands have not lasted that long. Great purchase at a great price.

    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.

    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

    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.

    I always go with Apple charges vs third party as they are much more reliable and lasts me longer.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    My old charger apparently had a short in the wire, the new one has rectified the problem keeping the laptop charged. Easy order process/fast delivery.

    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.

    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!
