Review on 🌍 Conair Polarized Adapter Plug for Southern Europe, Africa, Asia, Caribbean, Middle East - Travel Smart by Chris Beals

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best adapter for Italy!

I live in Italy part of the year to work for a travel company. This is the ONLY adapter I'll be using while I'm there - NO converters required! I like this one because it has two sockets in one which means less carrying. I plug my US laptop, cell phone, iPad, portable speakers, curling iron, anything into this adapter plug (as long as your device is dual voltage, it will work without a converter). Only with an American hair dryer you shouldn't use it - definitely don't take it with you! They are TOO powerful for Italy's power grid and will explode every time. Most hotels these days offer hair dryers. If not, just stop at a department store (COIN, La Rinascente etc.) and grab a European hair dryer for 20 euros. I have 3 of these sockets so I can have one in my bathroom, bedroom and living room while living in Florence. The fork is very light and won't take up space in your luggage (unlike a 5lb converter!).

Pros
  • Converter
