Works as advertised and clever design
By ken in the city
First off, this is NOT a voltage converter so if you have 110V appliances, make sure the power plugs for those are universal (i.e., receive 110-240V) before using them with this overseas. Also, the pics on Amazon sort of make it seem like you get three adapters, but they are genuinely just dissimilar modes of the same adapter -you only get one adapter.

Excellent
By M
I did not think I could get excessively affected emotionally in regards to an adaptor but this one is in truth neat. When I purchased it I thought it only converted US plug to the rest of the worlds sockets with neat little flip out pins.
But it actually takes any international plug and converts it to any socket in the world how cool is that !!!

Clever design but poor quality manufacturing
By Kevin Lockett
I purchased five of this item to use while overseas. The design idea is brilliant. One adapter plugs into anything and allows anything to plug into it. Flip a switch on one end and out pops a two prong general American 110 plug; manually lift a two prong European style 220 plug, or flip a switch on the other end, and out pop three plugs for a UK designed 220 volt outlet. The front likewise receives all three style plugs. The problem is, one of the three UK plugs, the ground, is plastic (so there is no ground) and it swivels so it does not hold the unit tightly to the wall outlet. All three plugs seem more or less littler than the ordinary size. I had to tape mine to the wall to keep it plugged in in each outlet I have tried. Mind you, I said I purchased five. All five have the same design, all five have the same flaw. None will stay plugged into the wall using the UK plug after you plug something else into the front of the adapter. The price is ridiculously low for a product of this nature. I thought I found a bargain. Beware! There is a reason for the low price! Poor quality!
