User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars OK converter
Got confused at whether the setting on the back was the input or output. Maybe I am just supposed to know to set it one way or another, but it doesn’t have it clearly marked and it’s on the back of the plug by the source not the front where the output is. I used it with my straightener and it didn’t seem like it was getting optimal power (the light was flickering instead of staying on) so I switched the plug to the other setting and blew everything up. So I’m still not sure which way is right, but it’s in the trash now and I have gotten a new adapter that works perfectly.

4 Stars humm.. it works perfectly with small electric things, but..
if you want to use a small electric device, it works perfectly.

but i wanted to use for the rice cooker, but it didn’t work for that purpose. so now i use it for the small electric device only.

it is ok to use it. as long as you don’t have to connect to a big electric device. Thanks~

5 Stars This worked fine.
I asked a relative to buy something I wanted in asian, but when I got the product, it was in 220v, and this solved my problem pretty good.

5 Stars Just awesome to the max
This item is great. As a German Immigrant I’m having quite a bunch of electronic appliances that are 220V and i won’t tear myself away from them. This is a good and small reliable product. I recommend it for anyone who shares the same past with me. Did I mention it comes with a gift? I love it and for the cost worrying folks it hasn’t sparked my power bill into oblivion.

1 Star CONFUSING DIRECTIONS
The directions are confusing and caused damage costing $120. The translator was not proficient in English.

2 Stars Memory works fine, REBATE does not
I bought this memory and it works fine. I sent the rebate to PNY and they sent a postcard stating “missing receipt” I did send a copy of the transaction but there is not a “receipt” included in a online transaction.

4 Stars Extra ram
I bought this for gaming. I was getting some lag at 2gbs and wanted more. It smoothed out the system and gave me everything i needed

2 Stars sure would have been nice if this memory would have worked :(
This memory took a long long time to reach me.. and then once installed created BSOD over and over and over.. I am back to my original memory now and no more errors.. what a waste of money right out of the package.. very disappointing

5 Stars Good upgrade
These are great modules for the money (it costs about $60 at best buy for the exact same thing). The first set I had seem to have some type of defect so I sent them back to Amazon and received the new set two days later. Works great. Couldn’t be happier with Amazon!

5 Stars Awesome Value
Bought this memory for my slow desktop and it is awesome. Just opened the case, popped them in and booted up. It works perfectly and my system screams along with excellent speed. The price was incredible for the excellent quality of this product. Highly recommended!
