Type of review

When I first took the item out of the plastic wrap it felt sticky. I thought the item was old and its rubber/plastic was melting over time. However, after wiping it down with Clorex disinfectant wipes, it was brand new, the sticky feeling was gone and I'm happy. It's a bit bigger than I imagined, but it's still better than lugging around the seat belt I have, which doesn't fold well (super bulky). It's about the size of a normal sized mouse.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Good but not great

The lock meets my needs

Nice design. I've only used it once. I don't know how tough that is against a professional thief, but I hope it will be a deterrent. It's quite compact. It has a retractable cord so it can be used anywhere and then it's easy to store away. The combo is easy to change, but you don't want to leave it where an ambitious kid could flip it and change it on you. I am considering buying another one for my daughter. I bought the combo style knowing I was going to lose my keys.

Pros
  • Computer accessories and peripherals
Cons
  • sad packaging

Works fairly well but problem with rubber coating

The product was received new in a sealed package but when opened there was a very sticky substance on all the rubber parts which felt like residue after removing the old ones had stickers of what -l Immediate shutdown and inconvenience. Feel like this product has been stored for a while and wonder if a new product will leave the same sticky residue after sitting in your bag for a while. Functionally, the lock works fine, but when the lock port is on the left side of the device, the numbers are…

Works fairly well but problem with the rubber cover

The product was received new in a sealed package but when opened all the rubber parts had a very sticky substance similar to the residue left after you removed an old sticker from something. Immediate shutdown and inconvenience. Feel like this product has been stored for a while and wonder if a new product will leave the same sticky residue in your bag after a while. Functionally, the lock works fine, but when the lock port is on the left side of the device, the numbers are reversed. Small…

Pros
  • Fits the Kensington security slot found in 99 percent of all laptops.
Cons
  • Available in black only.

Why is he so sticky?

I've seen reviews from 2018 that the black part is sticky. I thought this issue would be resolved by 2020 but I just received it, opened it up and found it was covered in a sticky, oily coating. This problem is clearly over a year old. Otherwise, a retractable combo lock with no keys to lose and no cord to fiddle with is a useful design, and the price is cheap. It's a pity that there are only a few alternative products with this design, otherwise I would recommend those for cleaning that don't…

Pros
  • Patented T-lock for maximum security.
Cons
  • String is shorter than other picks
