This is a great and durable way to secure laptops and other items that can wander off easily. The 3 interchangeable lock heads basically mean it works with everything. Just a note that you may want to use needle nose pliers when swapping the lock heads since they sit in the combo lock very snug.

Product came in a timely matter and was exactly what we were looking for. Son just went off to college and needed something to secure his laptop when he pops out of his room without it. Already knew which one we need and easily figured out how to use it following the instructions provided.

My new Dell didn't have the security cable loop so had to get this as an alternative. It works fine, but hasn't been tested and hopefully will not be.

I just bought a new, more powerful, smaller and sleeker HP Pavillion 15.5 laptop. Great computer. However, much to my dismay, the lock slot also was smaller and my cable lock wouldn’t fit any more. I came across this 3-in-1 solution. It works perfectly and was easy to install. In their packing the manufacturers included a card which lets you determine which head is right for your computer. The Kensington Nano Security head did the job. Congratulations on great planning and great documentation. Now my laptop is less vulnerable to taking an unplanned hike with someone else! Bravo.

It was a little confusing in the beginning as to which "connector nob" to use, but our son has had no issues using it at school to protect his laptop.

Comes with three different lock sizes. Fit our HP OMEN gaming laptops lock hole after buying a new Kensington lock that wouldn't work. The problem has to do with HP narrowing the height of the inside of the lock hole and Kensington changing their lock mechanism from the older clamp that scissors out to lock, to a newer "T-turn" lock. The "T" doesn't have room to turn in this model of laptop. The Targus successfully works and has the option to work with Dell's (odd shape lock hole) or thinner tablets and laptops.
