    Good build quality but didn't fit my Dell laptop. Make sure that the connector is compatible with your particular laptop. Would recommend this product if compatible.

    the lock is high quality but the cable is too short and very skinny, feels like you could use scissors to cut it.

    The cable lock does what it was designed to do, but I do not like the TINY numbers on the combo, and I do not like the lack of ease that it takes to line up the numbers.

    Not useful as it does not work to lock the Lenovo Yoga laptop that I purchased. The laptop does not have a lock/box capability.

    The lock mechanism works proper and is reliable, but the chain on the lock is very thin. You can basically cut it off. I would buy this again if I had no money.
