 Rating:  - Misleading claims!This product does NOT support laptops or other products that require a ground (for US plugs). I have a standard Dell laptop, so I assume it's very common that most US laptop plugs have the third plug for the ground.

Not for use with high-watt devices such as hairdryers and irons. Please check electronic device specifications before using.") That said, this adapter worked fine for me ... Read More Rating: - Shoddy constructionThis same design is sold by several companies, and has two major drawbacks: * European-style plugs come with prongs of varying thickness, including some where the thickness varies thoughout the length of the prong. This adapter is only able to handle the thickest ones when excessive force is applied and the mechanism will cause the thinnest ones to stuck so that you can not pull them off; * The adapter consists of two parts which are linked in a fragile way, a break is almost ...
