    This works well, this is light weight and easy to use and you can plug several things in at once. I'm glad I bought it.

    I bought this thing to power a gaming system and TV but I haven't tried that combo yet. It charges my laptop pretty well. It does feel light and cheaply made. If you want something cheap that does the job then this is for you. This was the most powerful one they had in stock so I got it. I will upgrade soon.

    Great thing to toss in the car. Has both regular outlets and usb. Which is great to have these days. It's a big plasticky but it works great, is light, and you can throw in a seat pocket.

    I was looking for a way to charge me work tablet on the go. I has tried several rechargeable batteries, to no avail. So, I bought this product. I works great, just as described. I have gotten a lot of use out of it. I would recommend.

    This inverter is superior to others at the same price. I had another on with only one plug outlet and no USB for the same price and half the voltage. I highly recommend this one.

    This was a life saver on the last family road trip. It had enough power to run several portable tvs for the kids. Kids were happy so parents were happy also.

    This really helped me out while we were on the go. We needed to charge a camera battery for a wedding that was starting in only an hour. This did the job and the wedding was a sucess!

    Works well with things like laptop and printer together. Haven't tried it with the blender yet so I can't say how it holds up to more powerful items. My only problem is that it is pretty bulky.

    I needed an inverter for a camping trip to charge our family cellphones and to power the air pump for our air mattresses. This worked great!

    This converter allows us to charge the laptop, plug in the electric toothbrush charger and so many other standard plug items. It is great for camping or even used in emergencies! Totally works perfectly. Only Drawback is the slight humming sound, but road noise and the radio drown drown that out.

    works well as long as you have it in a stationary spot in your car. the body is ok doesn't seem too durable and the plugs are kinda hard to plug in but i wouldn't say its a bad thing because i would rather have a secure snug outlet then a loose one.

    Works great! Used it for a crock pot at a soccer tournament. Comstock with cigarette lighter cord and battery clamp cord. You have to use the battery clamp for high watt usage. Overall size is equivalent to a dictionary. For moderate watt usage, you can't beat the price. You might want to look for a higher wattage rating for bigger jobs.

    Bought this to replace a power inverter used for tailgating Sunday football games. Especially liked the product because previous one I owned used a fuse, which blew out and necessitated this replacement. Product is lightweight and easy to set-up.
