    Pros:
    I traveled to Scotland in September of 2012, and wanted a plug adapter to use with my US purchased electronics. Most similar plug adapters for the UK do not include a fully grounded third plug. (The third prong is often just a bare plastic piece for stabili...
    Cons:
    None. The build quality is good, appears to accept a wide variety of AC plug types, and the safety conscious design is a plus. ...

    Very useful gadget!

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    The biggest pro is the unbeatable price, you won't get any similar gadget like this in any shop. It works as it should work, fits the British wall plug and will fit plug of your origin (mine was French - the European most common - and fitted alright).
    Cons:
    Although it fitted the plug, my mobile charger which I plugged in to the adapter tended to come out (and so did other plugs as ...

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Perfect price/quality relationship.

    posted by joaodiogocunha on 05/30/2011 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    I think the build quality is very good. Normally, this kind of things are made with bad materials, but I think, in this case, material is very robust.
    Cons:
    To be honest, I think there is no cons.

    Cons:
