BESTEK Universal Travel Adapter 220V to 110V Voltage Converter with 6A 4-Port USB Charging and UK/AU/US/EU Worldwide Plug Adapter (Black)

--------------- 2018, 2 year update: I've now been using this for about 2 years. In addition to the previous Italy trip, I've used it overseas in China, Iceland, and Grand Cayman as well as numerous times locally. I had a little trouble in China finding an appropriately powered outlet to run a curling iron but did manage it. Otherwise this thing has kept chugging along with no issues. Phones, camera batteries, AA chargers, even hooked up a pico projector & raspberry pi game system and it handled everything! ----------------- Original review: I purchased this bad boy specifically for my trip to Italy in late September. Between my traveling partner and me, we had quite a few different devices that needed power at some point and this worked flawlessly I used the standard power input twice and stuck mainly to the 2amp USB ports while my traveling partner used a curling iron plus what I had. At no time did it disappoint. I also used this in the airport when people were hogging the power switches (plug this and the US adapter in and a few of you can charge at the same time) and the other person (plus a couple of others) were grateful for the extra spots. Yes, there is a fan onboard and it does make noise (less that a standard oscillating fan) but it's a small price to pay for consistent, reliable, and a variety of power options. I tried some Teflon wax lubricant and that helped for a day or two but wore off. Still, no big deal. I've tried a few different power adapters and they usually switch off/on as they run into spotty electricity but this kept up. Coincidentally a couple we met up with had the same thing (different brand but clearly the same unit) and loved theirs.

Bought for my deployment to Europe. It works great still have and ready to use if I got on another European deployment. Very ease to use. It is universal and includes adapters for Asians country outlets as well. Very light that you don’t even really notice the weight. It provides efficient power for a laptop, a Christmas tree, a game system, tv, and phone.

I purchased this in 2016. 10 years later, still works flawlessly. Only downside is the fan... but consider it white noise ;) I've used on many trips overseas and domestic as a power adapter. Also on cruises when the room Typically has only one outlet. It is always in my luggage so it's ready for the next trip.

The BESTEK Universal Travel Adapter has transformed the way I travel, earning a well-deserved 4-star rating. This versatile adapter and voltage converter have proved to be an invaluable companion, making my international trips hassle-free and convenient. The range of plug options, including UK/AU/US/EU, covers practically any destination, ensuring that I'm always prepared to charge my devices. The 4-port USB charging is a game-changer, allowing me to power multiple devices simultaneously without needing extra adapters. The voltage converter feature from 220V to 110V is a godsend for using my electronic devices without worrying about compatibility or damaging them. This adaptability has saved me from having to purchase new chargers or devices for each destination. The white design is sleek and visually pleasing, while the build quality feels solid and durable. I've used it extensively on my trips, and it has held up well under different conditions. I do agree with other reviews that there are some louder sounds that come from this when turned on, its nothing more than the sound of a whirring fan to me so I was ok with it. In summary, the BESTEK Universal Travel Adapter is an essential tool for anyone who frequently travels internationally. Its versatility, combined with the voltage converter and USB charging capabilities, make it a must-have accessory. If you're seeking a reliable and convenient solution to power your devices across the globe, this adapter has you covered. It's undoubtedly my go-to travel companion, and I can't recommend it enough to fellow travelers. I have purchased it (or other versions of it) 4 times now.

Ordered two. Used one every day for tow yeast and three months out side the US before the fan started making noise. It still works, tried vacuuming out the fan, it clean and works , just noisy. The second is used the same and still is working great. Highly recommended.

We ordered this product in advance of a 2.5 week to New Zealand - a trip where we would be traveling all over both the North and South Islands. The product performed flawlessly. With 3 plug outlets and 4 USB ports, we had plenty of capacity at all times. Of importance when traveling internationally is the size of the product. The box for the product (with cords and converter pieces to deal with the demands of different countries) is only 6 x 3 x1.6 inches. The product is solidly built and the cord that goes in the wall is heavy duty. The ease of use is first rate. I saw another review, giving one star, of a purchaser (D. Rees) who said "It isn't easy to test this before such a trip....who has a foreign outlet here in the US?...not I." That purchaser reported the unit did not work at all. We had no trouble testing the unit before we left (we also traveled to New Zealand) as you do not need a foreign outlet to test it. You plug it into the wall here in the U.S. and turn it on. You then plug in a device to see if the charging function works. The only part of the product you cannot test in the U.S. is the single piece that plugs into the wall in the foreign country and that piece is a pass-through, i.e., it has no moving parts and, even if that part failed when you got to your foreign destination, you could replace it easily. Another one star reviewer complained that the "the cooling fan came on immediately." The fan operates continuously as part of its standard operation and is not a sign that something is wrong. That reviewer then reported something that was, in fact, a problem, i.e., "a loud pop came from the converter and sparks and smoke exited the converter." That reviewer (Mark) was careful to share exactly what was plugged into the converter so it was clear that he had not exceeded the converter's stated capacity. Perhaps the best guideline is to, one, buy the product in plenty of time to allow time to test the product well as we did, including load testing it with the devices you intend to us on the trip. That should reveal any defects with the product in a timely fashion, thereby allowing you time to resolve the problem with BESTEK.

I purchased this product on Amazon ahead of my trip to Europe in November 2023. In Europe, it was fine. In Australia, during my December 2025 trip, Bestek started creating problems. My laptop charger is 45W. My iPhone fast charger is 20W. Apple Watch slow charger is 5W. My power bank USB charger is 10W. Add all of them up, and it still does not reach the warning on the product that says “Make sure total wattage is less than 250W.”. I checked all my devices and they are suitable for the inputs of 100-240V voltage, including my laptop cable. Charging cable of Bestek started creating a “melted plastic smell” and I unplugged it as soon as I recognized it. I took photos of it as evidence, along with the photos of charging cables I used. It melted so badly on one side that after 2 years, I will be unable to use it anymore. It says in the original Bestek product box that the product warranty is good for 18 months. Now, can I get a new charging cable? Or is it just a product to be used for 2 years, to be thrown to trash after 2 years? Please note that laptop, iPhone, and Apple Watch chargers are plugged into sockets. The power bank is a USB-A cable plugged in to the USB-A ports. There should not be a user mistake. Can I get a refund or a replacement product if I return this melting plastic? Thank you. It had an issue with durability, since beyond 2 years, it became totally unusable. How can I request product support? Original box says request Amazon support, but actual product warranty is 18 months. So, it means, I cannot get product support. Am I correct? Happy to change or delete this review if I get product support. Thanks very much.

Bought for my wife to take on a trip to France and it worked great the whole time she was there

Works well

Es un poco ruidoso al funcionar

The products generates a lot of hiss noise in the background just like a transformer. Whenever I record a video there is a huge background hiss noise from this piece of equipment
