Review on Insten Universal Worldwide Travel Adapter For 150+ Countries, International Power Charger, European Adapter, Wall Charger Power Plug For USA EU UK AUS Compatible W/ IPhone, IPad, Samsung Galaxy & More by Anthony Woolley

I originally bought this adapter to get an order to $25 for free shipping and because I knew I was going to be spending some time in Spain in the coming months. Fortunately I didn't forget about it and now I've been using it for about a month and I'm perfectly content with it. For those of you who are concerned about the quality of such a cheap adapter with moving parts, let me put your fears to rest: everything feels well-attached and sturdy! It's much better than the one I bought since I've been in Spain, which tends to disassemble whenever you remove it from an outlet.Although the adapter is a fairly large box, the prongs are more than long enough to reach into the recessed outlets here in Spain, and honestly that's about all it needs to do. Additionally, I'll be able to use it if I ever get around to visiting my friends over in the UK.Another note; this adapter basically just changes the shape of your plug, and that's all you really need if you're using it for electronics. It's true that different countries have different frequencies and peak voltages, but as long as you're using a phone/laptop/ipod/tablet/etc. charger, the "brick" that came along with that should be able to handle it. Just read the tiny writing on your current charger and look at the ranges of frequencies and voltages that it can accept for input, and compare that to the power grid specifications of the country you're traveling to. While I suppose it's possible that you might find something outside of that range, I don't think such a place would be considered a first-world country, because those power adapters are made to be shipped everywhere. HOWEVER, if you were hoping to use a hair-dryer or other cheaper kind of electrical things, you will probably be out of luck with this adapter because your appliance probably doesn't have a built-in voltage converter.
