Summary: Works great for me, no pieces to loose.
Comment: This adapter works great for me plugging my notebook and other items in Ireland and the UK.
I've bought several travel adapters, but always loose the little pieces in about 45 seconds... So the all-in-one feature (1 piece, no additional pieces) works absolutely perfectly for me and I'll never consider anything else.
I've read a few people mention something about it not working because of the third prong. I'm not 100% sure what they're talking about, but the device DOES have a hole for a third (ground) prong for U.S. devices. and probably non-US devices (I only tried US devices.) You CAN plug in a device with a third prong, and you can plug this device into outlets requiring a third prong as well.
However, it is a no-connect meaning the third prong doesn't really do anything except allow the plug to physically fit into the device or the adapter into the wall. I suppose this is not ideal (a connected third prong would have been better) however in actual fact everything I tried on it worked perfectly. I've tried 3 notebooks (an older HP notebook, A brand new HP notebook, and a new MacBook) as well as a variety of chargers and routers and they all work, at least in Ireland and the U.K. Perhaps there are some devices that don't work with a nonconnected third prong but I haven't found any yet.
I don't want to flame other reviewers (perhaps they have found combinations that do not work for some reason), but rather am just relaying my experience, which is that everything I have tried works everywhere I tried it, and I'm even a gadget guy!
I am now ordering the white travel adapter (different manufacturer) which seems to have the same basic features as this one but is 1/2 the price... I'll let everyone know how it compares to this one!

Summary: Plug Review
Comment: I just used the plug on a trip to Israel. Worked as described. Remember, it is not a transformer it will just allow your plugs to fit. If you plug this into a 220V outlet and plug a 110V device into it the device will fry.
Customer Rating:
Summary: PERFECTLY SIMPLE!
Comment: NO PARTS ! HOORAY !!! converts all configurations IN and OUT. Go anywhere and use their outlets. The outlet can be any configuration AND the device can be any configuration. It's also very small for packing.

Summary: Kensington Adapter
Comment: Works great, all-in-one so you don't have to keep track of different pieces. If you have a 3 prong US plug, bring an 3 to 2 adapter.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Almost everything I hoped
Comment: This adapter worked extremely well for the most part, and was a great value for the money. My one problem was that it appeared, from the pictures, to accept grounded plugs (US version), but it did not, which caused some last-minute adjusting.
