    Buy the authentic chargers from BestBuy, Apple, or any brick and mortar store. I’ve sampled many pure online retailers just to see what they’ll send and most of the time, it’s some knockoff that doesn’t perform (overheats) or doesn’t send the right charge information to the laptop. After five or so trials throughout the years, safest bet is to get it directly from an authorized brick and mortar retailer. That said, per apples mantra, cable is very flimsy and although mine did last about 6 year and is still going, it was used under very low stress conditions.

    This charger is everything one would expect from an apple product. Quality, reliable, but unfortunately overpriced at $80. The nice thing about the 85W version is comparability with all size MagSafe 2 MacBooks.

    Must Store Safely Or It Will Break

    Our cat loves to pull the cable out of its magsafe connection, and after that happened a couple times it no longer functioned. Prior to that after about two years of usage and storing in a backpack the connector eventually no longer worked, probably from pulling out of the backpack and the cord getting snagged etc. Since purchasing this new unit Ive kept it away from cats and store only in its own zippered pouch on the backpack and it is holding up.

    This adapter is the identical charger provided in the package that came with your mac pro laptop. the 85 watts of power provide a fast charge. The mage safe connector keeps your laptop safe from forgetting to unplug it or from accidental trips. This adapter works with the 13 and 15 inch MacBook Pro with the Retina display. Earlier models use a different charger.

    Nice but built-in flaw

    I purchased this to replace the power adapter I had. Over the three years the part of the wire nearest the adapter wore out due to constant bending. The outer insulation broke revealing the internal wires. Eventually those broke also. This was a bit of a hazard. The design issue is that if one winds the cord around the built-in retractable cord "holders", that part of the wire ends up bent almost 90 degrees. The solution is that one has to leave a fairly large loop in place prior to winding around the "holders". This loop allows the wire to come out of the adapter in a straight line and then slowly curve until one can wind the rest of the wire around the holders. So just a bit of thought, time and caution; however, a better design would be nice.

    This replaced a cheaper charger I bought of Amazon that ended up turning brown from the how hot it was getting. I cut the cord on that one and bought the real apple charger and it's been working great.

    After 4 yrs of the original cord I had to break down and purchase a new one. I hate that Apple is pricey on their accessories. Had to do it though and works just fine.

    Had to get a new adaptor when my dog ate my fiancées power cord. Went to Apple first but hey we're no help. Second stop, BestBuy! Walked up and found what I needed however it got better. The box I grabbed was not only what I needed, but was a previously opened box and was marked down by some. This was the best news ever. I never have been this lucky here before so that was a plus. I'm always a in the market for discounts or coupons and this was right up my alley. Much appreciated.

    Had to purchase a new charger after my old one failed. Over priced as always. But a needed purchase. Make sure you buy official Mac gear and not a knock off protects your computer and lasts longer

    My original barely lasted past the original warranty of my $4000 plus dollar MacBook pro. So dropped another almost $100 on this new proprietary AC adapter.

    There are some things we can take shortcuts on. Laptop power supplies should not be one of them. Using an official Apple power supply guarantees a certain amount of QC went into the manufacturing process. Using a third party power supply could void your warranty! I recommend if you are looking to save money, you do it with cables or media adapters, not your power supply. The 85W MagSafe2 power supply is exactly the same as what you'd get with your MacBook Pro. I would like options for colors, but we are stuck with white.

    Apple makes great products. this is a replacement for one that lasted 7 years. recently I've dropped my facebook, WhatsApp, and twitter account. account over their communistic style deprivation of free speech. If Apple doesn't back down i may have to do the same. our country and the constitution is more important to me than electronic toys that will wear out.
