 Really worked great June 30, 2008
We used this on our recent trip to the UK. We visited England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Ireland, and Wales. We used this at every stop. Hooked a 1600 watt blow dryer, a 1200 watt curling iron and even used it to recharge my camcorded battery. This little unit never gave me the first problem.

This item worked well. It was bulky and a little heavier than I would have liked it to be; but still, it has survived several layovers in O'Hare and that's more than I can say for my suitcase!
Not so bad... April 15, 2008

I have had this on 1 trip to Switzerland and Germany. I did not use the voltage converter, only the plugs. The adapters worked great, although trying to figure which ones you need so you only pack the correct ones is not easy, the "manual" in the package is no help. The plastic case is cheap and broke while in my suitcase during the flight over.
If you are looking for just the adapters this is a good value. I can't comment however if the voltage converter works.

I would not recommend this product at all. We bought it new for a trip to New Zealand just to have an extra for my husband's laptop. The 3rd time he plugged it in, we went out for a bite to eat and came back to find our hotel room smoky and smelling like an electrical fire. The converter literally melted; we had to use the ice tongs to pick it up. Imagine if we'd stayed out with friends! I'm buying another Franz. Had mine for years and never had a problem.
No good - Requested for refund December 3, 2007

This is THE worst piece of item I have ever purchased. Followed all instructions, but still blowed up (started smooking) on first use. The worst part is, it damaged my son's much needed nebulizer machine which I had to replace from out of pocket. Thank goodness I had a hand-held inhaler which my son used while abroad.
