Adapter gets quite hot -- and lights up green -- but works
Know that the top port will charge an iPad, but the bottom one won't -- and both ports will work for charging a phone. I didn't try using it for anything other than charging an iPad/iPhone, so I don't know how well it works for something like a Kindle. The adapter will light up a bright green when it's working -- and it's quite bright, like a night light. When I used it, it got very hot after being plugged in and charging over night, so be careful. It works for me in Iceland as well as in France and did what it was supposed to do: allow me to plug in a USB cord to my devices. I didn't like that light was so bright at night, and I didn't like that the adapter got so hot, but it functioned and did charge my devices. A two-pack was quite inexpensive, so for the price, I suppose they were fine.

Only USB Charger You'll Need
Fits into round wall outlets, so you don't have to buy a second adaptor. Because some reviewers complained these burned out easily, I purchased several. No problem over a week or more of constant use. Small enough to toss one in my purse, another in my carry-on, and more in my checked luggage, so I had a plug available whenever I needed it. The double USB was great -- let me charge my phone and Kindle and/or noise-cancelling headphones simultaneously.

can be used throughout Europe with round two/three pin sockets- NOT A VOLTAGE CONVERTER
You definitely need to buy a pack of these to take to Europe, before you go. Once there, the electronic stores sell them but for much more money. These were used in France and Belgium with no problem. WARNING: THESE ARE NOT VOLTAGE CONVERTERS!!!! Meaning: we use 110 volts in the US. Europe uses 220 volts (like your electric stove or clothes dryer) If you plug in your 110 hair dryer into 220 volts, you will burn it out. Most computer and phone plugs say they are 100-240 volts, but you have to check first and the print on them is really really small. Use your reading glasses. If in doubt, use a voltage converter, which is a larger box that converts the 220 to 110.

Great for charging cell phone
When I went to Spain, I was glad to take the two adapters (one for my purse and one for the house I was staying at). I found that the adapter was good to charge my cellphone (Samsung Galaxy S5). I did try using it to charge my phone and tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab S2) at the same time, however my tablet kept complaining about slow charging. Even when testing it by itself, there was still the slow charging pop-up. Thankfully, I had my regular US charging adapter, which I plugged into my general travel adapter and charged my tablet while charging my FitBit through the USB port on it as needed. Bottom line - Great deal and great to have a second adapter while you go about (I always make sure to have a charger in the US :) , never know when you'll need it). Keep the other in your carry-on with an extra charging cable. Have a back up for a tablet like I ended up needing.

Very satisfied. I received 2 of these chargers
Very satisfied. I received 2 of these chargers. They each have 2 USB ports and one of the 2 USB ports on one of the 2 charges didn't charge. I notified the seller and they sent me 2 more of the chargers right away. They didn't make me return the chargers which was great because, lets face it, when you get a defective item the last thing you want to do is go to the post office and spend your time retuning the item. These guys had me 2 new chargers within a couple days of my making the inquiry. They were very pleasant and eager to correct the situation. These chargers are fantastic and most useful on my European travels. Having 2 USB ports in each makes charging multiple items a breeze. Thanks!

Can be used in Portugal, Poland and Armenia
I bought these as I was going to travel to Portugal and Armenia and knew I needed an adapter to charge my cell phone as well as my husbands and my amazon fire tablet. With an eight hour layover from Portugal to Armenia I was happy to also use the adapter in Poland. The green light worked well as a night light which was a plus for the apartment we’re renting. As for the durability i didn’t give 5 stars only because it’s been just a little under a month I’m using them. But for this length of time so far they’re holding up and doing their job!

Worked perfectly!
Used these while traveling recently to Greece, where the electrical systems can be a bit unreliable, depending on where you are staying. We had no problems whatsoever using these devices to charge our electronic gear (phones, tablets, iPads). They were simple and intuitive to use... just plug and play. They doubled as a night light, so if you plan to charge while you sleep and like pitch black, plan to shield the light with something. Highly recommend.

Better than big blocky converters!
I just needed to charge phone & watch every day, so was perfect for travel to Italy, Belgium, & France. I separately purchased a bulky block converter at 5x the price as a backup in case this inexpensive product didn’t work. The bulky block converter broke trying to plug in, whereas this sweet smaller version worked great for 2 weeks straight. Ended up loaning the second in the pack to my sister traveling with me & worked great for her too. Save space packing & just bring what you need - this was perfect!
