Great functionality. June 7, 2008 Had no problems while traveling through Europe. If you are traveling to countries that use the same plug though, you are better off picking up a cheap adapter from Radio Shack.
Worked great in Italy May 21, 2008 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.
Worked as advertised May 12, 2008 I went to Haifa, Israel with this device, and while I was concern that it would fall out of the socket, the plug did fine in all the sockets that I plugged it into.

As someone else stated, WILL NOT WORK WITH 3 PRONGED, GROUNDED PLUGS. How ridiculous. Of course, my laptop's ac adapter has three prongs, like many others, so it will not work with this. Also, when traveling abroad, the trick is to bring a power bar so you can plug in multiple devices at once, where only one travel adapter is needed for the power bar itself. Unfortunately, most all power bars have 3 Prongs, so it won't work with them either.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
Great use in Europe May 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Purchased this before I went to Europe last year, it worked great in Greece, Italy, Germany, France, Amsterdam, Britain and Ireland.
I'd give it a full 5 stars, but sometimes gave me trouble locking into place.
I am hoping one of the earlier reviews telling of a "trick" to get this to work in China is true, as I am going to be trying it it there firsthand and soon
