It works great if you have an older Macbook. There's an extension in case you need to plug it into a three-pronged wall cause the box is a little heavy.

Best way to go

This is definitely the best way to go when you are looking for a new charger for your MacBook. Avoid the cheap aftermarket copies you find online, they will never last as long as this one, they get very hot, and can potentially fry you motherboard. All charger will eventually break after a few years, but this one will offer you the best and longest performance.

Look when it comes to tech we learn as we go. After going to Apple and to several authorized Apple repair shops, and being turned away by all due to cost, I decided to install new laptop batteries in my MacBook Pro myself. After purchasing and installing the batteries I discovered my old cord was not going to work with the new batteries. I’m not an electrician so I dont know. All I know is this used cord looks brand new and works great. Kudos to 1 store employee went out of his way to help me test the cord with my laptop. There were one too many who were unsure if they should help a customer or continue to talk to each other.

My refurbished MacBook Pro was delivered with a off brand 65W charger, which worked for 9 months. While on vacation the charger quit and just blinked green. At first I thought it had to be the laptop, but Best Buy allowed me to try their Apple charger, and it worked! I'd considered trying a cheap online replacement, but read reviews saying they were on their third charger. The Apple charger is more expensive, but it is the right tool for the job. Worth it!

What more could you ask for? It's a charger, and it works perfectly. I haven't experienced any issues; just ensure you match the charger correctly to the appropriate device.

I bought this as a replacement for the charger that originally came with my MacBook. The rubber that covers the charger began to break. And the wires inside ravelled and split. This was a good choice seems more sturdy than original and rubber around vulnerable areas seems stronger. It's pricey though $80 just for a charger

Seems I need to buy one of these every so often because my cat decides to chew mine up. There is something about that thin rubber like cord I guess. Anyway, this new one works great. It's original Apple stuff and nice you can get it so easily when you find your old one has teeth mark and doesn't work.

There's no getting around the price point of this adapter, but to look elsewhere would be a waste of your time. Buy Apple the first time around and save yourself time and heartache searching for a knockoff. The first adapter lasted just over 4 years, and this was after being wrapped and unwrapped and placed in my backpack repeatedly.

Replacement AC Adaptor for MacBook

This is the same power supply that comes with Apple's 15" MacBook Pro. Compared to other computer brands, this is the same price, or cheaper than their power supplies. The 85Watt adaptor is slightly larger in size than the 60W and 45W adaptors but can be used in place of either. I bought this one to leave plugged in at my desk.

I purchased this adapter so I wouldn't have to crawl under my desk every time I travel. It works great and solved a problem for me. Sure, the price is high, but the price is very similar to adapters from other computer manufacturers also. I use this on a 13" Macbook Pro with Retina Display (2013 model) and it is fully compatible.

Better quality then what came with my laptop. Pricey but better quality. My original cord was severing near the end of the cord where you put into the laptop. This new cord is reinforced with rubber around the end of the cord and I trust it won't break open and expose/ break wires like the original

You can’t beat the official apple chargers, they work perfectly. The only downside is the price, very expensive for a charger but you can price match with other retailers, like Amazon, that have it much cheaper.

This charger was reassuringly overpriced as only an authentic Apple product can be. I am extremely impressed with how it charges my MacBook Pro, converting electricity to battery power like a champ . Highly recommended for anyone who has misplaced their charger or perhaps found theirs irreparably chewed by a pet.

The price is a bit crazy for a charger, but it's Apple so what do you expect. It works great.
