- Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2024These converters are good. We use them to convert down 220v to 110v since we moved to Germany and some of our tv and hair dryers are american. The issue that we noticed is that it works well we low power appliances but something like vacuum doesn't work. Its not powerful enough to convert that much electricity i guess. It comes with a nice bag and other adapter plugs for ease but we dont use those. I guess we can take our self converting phones and laptops etc and use these adapters.

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024This worked perfectly in France and Germany for our family of 6, including my daughter's hair flat iron.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2024I bought this unit before our 3-week vacation in Central Europe. I sent an email to the product owner through Amazon to inquire about items that should not be plugged in, but did not receive a reply. 2nd day into our trip, my wife plugged in her hair straightener and I felt the heat from the straightener initially. When my wife was ready to use it, she told me the straightener was not hot anymore. We unplugged the unit and plugged it back in. The strainghtener would not turn on anymore. After we returned home, I plugged in the unit to our wall outlet, the straightener will not come on. I had to replace my wife's straightener. This unit caused me additional $130. If you just need to charge your phone or other low voltage devices, this unit seems to work fine. Other than that, don't buy this unit.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2017I used this voltage power converter on a 4 week trip to Europe. I used it in Iceland, Denmark and Germany. It worked great for all of our 110v US electronics. It powered up a curling iron in the outlet port and at the same time, it also charged 2 mobile phones, an ipad, and a power brick via the USB ports. It charged everything quickly and we didn't have to worry about devices overcharging or things overheating. The red/green light indicator is great so you know whether your device is charging or powering up correctly.
I've also used this on a cruise ship. It's great because all cruise lines forbid surge protectors on board. Most power strips these days have built in surge protectors whether you want it or not. We were able to use this converter as a big power strip on the ship! The best part is that most cruise ship cabins have 2 US 110v outlets and 2 European 220v outlets. We were able to plug this into the European outlet which gave us more US 110v outlets for all our devices. YAY!
There is a small fan inside the converter that runs when it's in use. It was so quiet that it just faded into the background like white noise. If nothing is being charged, you simple unplug the converter or turn the power switch to the off position. The entire unit comes in a small mesh bag to keep the unit, plugs, and power cord organized. It found it a bit heavy to lug around in a carry on bag for a day of airline travel, so I put it in my checked bag.
UPDATE: 5 years after purchase and 2 years of not being used due to the pandemic, this device stopped working properly. The fan started making a high pitched sound that was so loud you couldn’t carry on a conversation.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2024slim quiet and most importantly does not over heat!!! the other guys overheated all the time and even bubbled! plenty of plugs for all out laptops and phones in one convenient place all for a great price!
