I was afraid this will not work with my 13 inch MacBook because normally I use the 60 W charger but this one was on sale and it works great without any problem and no heating issues

You know what you are getting with this power supply. Just don't let the BB employee try to sell you the wrong wattage for your computer. Ha!
Apple makes these things in China to minimize their cost but they surely don't pass along to customers. A great product that deserves 5 stars but $80 for a power supply doesn't justify 5 stars.

A charger is a charger.... not really, there are some out there that are not originally from apple and they are dangerous and tend to overheat. These are more expensive but they are worth it.

Charges the computer up fast at first I thought it was a problem that was an 85 W instead of the 60 W but the Mac is smart enough to figure it out and it works well

I bought a new charger to replace my original. My MacBook Air wasn’t charging with the old charger and I was hoping that a new charger would be the fix. I’ve have no charging issues since.

I tried cheaper alternatives. They failed or broke quickly. It pays to pony up for the real deal adapter. Great quality and worth the money.

It is easily broken. I had no choice but to buy use my laptop right after the cord was not working anymore. It seems it is the same thing with the one coming with the laptop. They shouldve offered only cord part too. I did not need whole square shape battery part since that one of mine was just working fine.

Aesthetics, Quality, and Usability are all top notch. Make sure to use a cable bungie rather than the cable wrap included on the charger though, that puts unneeded stress on the intersection point and it will ruin it.

Lost the charging cable for my business Apple laptop. Best Buy assistant knew exactly which adapter that I needed. The adapter works perfectly as has all the Apple products that I have purchased.

Make sure you get the right model!!
This is a MagSafe 2 adaptor, which is used for newer machines. If you don't have a MagSafe 2 connector be sure to get the other version...
There is an adaptor to take aMagSafe1 to MagSafe2.

I bought this cable and adapter as a backup for traveling. It is exactly the same as the original Apple cables and chargers supplied with MacBooks. Despite some of the negative reviews, I've never had one break, tear, or fray and I'm not even sure how that could happen without pulling or twisting it repeatedly with great force.

We accidentally caught the cord to the Power Adapter in the frame of the recliner. It sliced the cord making it unusable. We had to replace the cord. The new one we bought works great.

I needed to get a new power supply for my MacBook Pro. It wasn't a replacement. It was an additional one because I always leave it at home or at work. Now I have two and it's no longer a problem.

It claims to be a charger. It charged my iMac. Can't get better than that.
