Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the Travel Adapter and Converter's broad compatibility and ease of use, making it suitable for international travel. The inclusion of multiple adapters and the device's solid build quality are also appreciated. However, some users find the size and weight to be a drawback, and a few have noted that it can get warm during use.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Hooked it up to a 120V printer. Only used it for the max 10 minutes. Unplugged it for a little while and plugged it back in and it blew the converter. Very disappointed. Should have known better. Would not recommend unless you are using this for an old laptop or phone use only.

    I bought this current adaptor 2 days before taking a 12-day trip to northern Italy, Switzerland, Austria & Germany. The packaging claimed this adaptor set would work world-wide, but I was only able to use it at 1 hotel as the large rectangular adaptor would not fit into the recessed triangular-shaped sockets at the other hotels (some were old & some were recently built modern hotels). I will be returning this product.

    I bought a adapter set for trip to Europe. I got to Spain and it did not fit the receptacle so much for expert service. I am not happy. I needed adapter so I could use my curling iron and blow dryer. I spent money for something that did not work!!!

    [Employee of bestbuy] Horrible product. Bought it to charge my laptop but it doesnt work. Automatically shuts off power after a few minutes. Guess it would work for a hair dryer or something but definitely NOT for a laptop. Best Buy should NOT sell these pieces of garbage!

    Sorry I bought it. Item was listed as an open box in excellent condition. I bought it a couple of months before we went to UK and the main large plug worked here in the USA. When we went to the UK and had to use the adapter it did not work. It was useless and a waste of money. Open box in excellent condition?? Open box that someone returned because it did not work and Best Buy probably put it back on the shelf.

    Doesn't work well at all in Indonesia. I don't know how well it will work in other countries. I doesn't fit in the outlet tight, hangs down at an angle so I have to prop it up and I have to angle my charger to get it to work. Doesn't mean I won't buy at Best Buy anymore of course, but this is the one thing I have purchased that is just not that good.

    Makes a funny electrical sound every time I tried charging my electrical devices. Hair clippers and dryer made a really weird sound every time I tried using the adapter. Definitely made me uncomfortable every time I used the adapter….didn’t know if it was going to catch on fire or blow up. Bought it for my travel to Europe….2month stay, definitely going to return it when I get back. Wish I didn’t have to worry about given the length of my travel.
