95 yo father plays on his iPad from 8am-8pm not sure how it happened but his charge and sync cable stopped working. I noticed a bend near the end that goes into the iPad and figured he bent it somehow. Since he is my hero I jumped into the car and went straight to Best Buy to get a new one. They new exactly what I needed and I was back home in a flash. Disaster abort, dad is happy and playing Free Cell, Golf and Solitaire once again.

This is much thicker than the flimsy, thin Apple iphone chargers...which (always?) split & shred near the phone end. I don't see that issue coming with this cable. Also, the lights while it charges will give your cat(s) something to watch for hours....

Don’t buy, this destroys phone batteries

I have an iPhone 6 in excellent condition. I bought this cord a couple of months ago to replace my original charger cord, since it was frayed by the head of the cord. It worked just fine for a couple of weeks but then I started having issue where my phone wouldn’t recognize it was plugged in. I would have to unplug and re-plug it several times for it to even be recognized by the device.
By this time, I started to notice that my battery was draining faster and faster between charges. I figured it was the charger base because this cord was new so it shouldn’t be the problem.
I tried changing out the charger base thinking it might be a faulty base but that didn’t help. I tried a friend’s apple charger base as well. No matter where I plug in this cord, my phone doesn’t charge or even recognize it’s plugged in. I also tried using a friend’s apple charging cord to see if it was just my phone’s charging port being faulty and it charged just fine. My phone recognized that cord immediately and didn’t give me any issues.
Now my battery lasts 20 mins before reaching 40% on a full charge. I had to buy a replacement battery since this cord destroyed my phone’s original battery and now I’m stuck with a useless cord that won’t charge any of my apple devices. I ended up having to fish my old broken cord out of the garbage because that’s the only cord that will actually charge my phone now.
It’s cheap and might work for a few weeks but buyer beware, unless you have extra cash to buy new phone batteries with.

I needed an additional iPhone 6s usb based charger when driving so purchased this Insignia product as I am familiar with this brand and was not disappointed. This Insignia is made with good cabling and reinforced adapter connections. Highly recommend!

Good value for cost. It does have the tendency to wear at eith end. A spring from a ballpoint pen tends to slow this process.

Ive had to but multiples due to the cable coming apart and the wire start to show. ( most last purchase end of 2018 about 6 months)Strangely it stop working for my iPhone X but with wire and take on it now only on my older model iPhone which is annoying. I will just have to invest in a wireless charger.

Canon Pixma all in one printer has poor features

I was setting up my new Canon Pixma TR-8520 “All in one printer” and the first disappointing feature is a bright light, like strobe light that will blind you if you look at it. It signifies the printer is on.
The paper Intake drawer has a cheap, flimsy plastic flap that just sits on top of the paper intake drawer and is unsecured. The printer was on sale for $99 and the regular price was $199. I am dismayed that the printer is such a poorly constructed unit.

I thought since it’s suppose to be a lightning charging cord it would charge my iPhone 5s fast and hold the charge for a longer period of time. I was reallly disappointed by the results.
