    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!! (That's probably next)

    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

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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 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 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.

    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.
