DO NOT BUY

(1 out of 5) by Tyler Pittaway on Nov 22, 2009
After about 3 unsuccessful uses, the top pin to open the socket snapped off! Henceforth making it unusable!

Dangerous

(1 out of 5) by Ron on Jun 10, 2009 (UK)
Dont buy this.......we bought it for going on holiday to charge our Ipod. Gave it a trial run before we went and after being on for 5 minutes it exploded with a large spark and noise...... was scared taking it out of the main!!!! Dont waste your money.

Cheap charger, but be careful...

(2 out of 5) by Alessandro Borghi on May 12, 2009 (London)
The charger is very good. I bought it after purchasing my ipod because I prefer to charge it from the mains. The only problem is that the first time my partner stepped on it the earth plug broke, as it is made of plastic. I know it's my fault, but a metal one would have been less fragile.

Thanks!

I bought this charger for travelling but tried it at home and on the first use it blew and fused the electrics in the house! This only happened once it had charged the ipod and the ipod was undamaged thank goodness. It's only saving grace!!

Cheap and breakable, but it does the job

(3 out of 5) by Mr. Stuart Bruce on Jan 12, 2009 (Cardiff, UK)
I'm on my second one of these now- I dropped the first one. I only dropped it out of my hand onto a hard floor, it's not as if I dropped it off a tall building, yet it immediately stopped working (the light still came on but charging no longer worked).

So I can say that they aren't very durable.

However it works fine with my 5th gen iPod classic, and it charges it pretty quickly, so for the sake of a couple of quid it seems OK, and it's far cheaper than Apple's branded equivalent.
