Customer Review: Awesome travel adaptor.
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this for a trip to Israel in March of 2010, and am going to be use it again as I return next week. I LOVE this adapter. It is easy to use as there are no interchangeable parts, so there is nothing to lose or leave behind! I have recommended this to every one of my friends who has done overseas traveling, and they have either borrowed mine or bought their own and love it. I have not seen a system that is easier to use. My only complaint is that occasionally it will feel like the plug doesn't sit snugly in the wall, but I have never had a problem with it falling out or not charging because of it. I have sucessfully used this with my 3-prong laptop charger, as my boyfriend has with his, with no problems at all.Customer Review: This is the best adapter that I have ever owned or even seen!
Summary: 5 Stars
I travel internationally to somewhere between 15 to 20 countries per year. I love this adapter. It is compact and rugged. It has worked in every country that I have visited. It is easy to use the levers to move from one configuration of the adapter to another. My favorite feature is that this adapter is one piece. It is also light enough that it does not pull out of outlets. I was even pleased with the price. The ONLY negative is that occasionally the levers will stick and I will have to pull a lever in and then out to get it to change configurations. This is a very minor issue, but I thought I should mention it. I will buy this product again if my current one ever breaks.Customer Review: Have visited 140 countries. This works in 98% of them and also accepts three prong grounded plugs!

I travel for the US government and to say that I am a road warrior is putting it mildly. I have used this adapter in many countries on every continent and it is an extremely RARE occurrence when it won't fit into an outlet. I have also noticed many reviews claiming that this adapter cannot be used with a three-prong grounded plug. Funny, since I am typing this review on my laptop that uses three prongs and is plugged into this Kensington adapter. Maybe those that complain should look closer. This road warrior recommends this product most highly. It is one of the best purchases I have ever made!Customer Review: Works in South Korea
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading the "doesn't work with 3 prongs" by Mark Rosenthal I almost didn't get it. I don't have any 3 prong electronics, but I didn't want to be unable to buy something with 3 prongs. I got it anyway, I couldn't find anything that specifically listed my destination (South Korea) as compatible and I'm so glad I bought this. It works in Korea. I'm working with GEPIK and teaching here for a year, I also plan to travel to Laos, India, Japan, and Malaysia so I'm glad this is supposed to work virtually everywhere.
Since I'll be here a while, I just wish I'd bought at least 2 or 3.
Customer Review: Worked great in Italy
Summary: 5 Stars
So this item is an adapter, not a voltage converter. Make sure your device supports 220v before using it in Europe. All devices are required to have that label on them somewhere. It will say something like 110v ~ 220v or similar if both voltages are supported. Most battery chargers and that kind of thing will work for both, so all you need is this adapter.
This adapter worked great. It's compact and very functional. I used it so I could charge my camera batteries while I was in Italy. I had no problems. I even lent it to my friend whose adapter was not working.
