Samsonite Converter/Adaptor Plug Kit with Pouch, Charcoal Grey

We bought this product to use on our dream vacation in France. Well, when we got there, we used this product and plugged in my wife and daughter's Chi Hair straightener. The straightener immediately started smoking.

So, this product was totally useless and ineffective converting the power down to something we could use.

When we got home, we tested the straigtener to see if it was permanently damaged. Yep it was, so to get another one is at least $80.00.

Although I bought this a while back, I didn't need until this month when I went to Scotland so wanted to wait until I used it, to review it. It worked great! Had no problems with any of the electronics I hooked up to it and I was very glad that it gave me no problems. Great travel adapter!

I was just in France and this little adaptor worked just fine. I have a CPAP machine (for sleep apnea) so it was very important that I get an adaptor that I could rely on and this one did the trick! We had no trouble with any of the items we used it with.

I bought this for my mom who is going abroad and it comes with a outlet converter for every continent. It's going to be extremely useful to her.

my travel friend & i just returned from europe. we each brought our own adapters & converter. i paid $30 for this set (samsonite converter/adapter plug kit) and she paid $40 for hers. my set allowed for american plugs that have one leg wider than the other - hers didn't. she ended up using my set the entire time.

i used it on my digital camera battery, cell phone, & ipod recharging with no problems whatsovever!! it even has multiple adapters for almost any country you'd like to travel to!

the only electrical device that i found the kit didn't work for was my ceramic straightening iron (if you don't know, it straightens hair). if my ceramic straightening iron had worked i'd given this kit 5 stars.

i highly recommend this plug kit - and so does my friend.
