OREI USA to Europe (Schuko) (Type E/F) Travel Adapter Plug - (300 Pack)

I purchased this plug converter without much thought. Verizon gave me (with a rental global phone) some plug converters too. Verizon plug adapters did not work. This OREI plug converter from USA to Western Europe (Germany, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands) does work. Why is this OREU plug ideal and will actually work for you when other plug adapters will fail? Two reasons: - This plug has a circular face for the European component. This is critical. Some Western European countries have square surface inputs and some have recessed circular inputs for their power plugs. The circular surface of this OREI plug fits ALL types of Western European power plugs. If you get a plug adapter with a square face, you cannot use the recessed circular input plugs. In the Netherlands, all they had were recessed circular inputs for their plugs. In France where I saw both types, this plugged worked every time. - Having two input sources for US type plugs is great for practical use. Many European hotels have few power plugs to begin with, so an adapter that doubles the usable outlets is huge if you have a cell phone, laptop, electric razor, etc. Note 1: this OREI plug I am reviewing takes a USA plug (3 or 2 prong) as input and gives you a European (Germany, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands not England) standard plug. Note 2: this is a power adapter in that it lets you plug in a USA input and has a European standard output. This device does NOT convert voltage. If you are powering a low Wattage device (generally less than 100 watts) you do not need a voltage converter. Recall that Watts = volts * amps. Charging your cell phone, laptop, razor, digital camera, will be fine with this OREI plug adapter. You do not need a voltage adapter. You can double check if you are unsure by reading the power adapter of your device, it will tell you on the adapter what range is allowed for power. Generally you are fine in the 120volt through 240volt range for small electronics. Overall this plug adapter is very inexpensive and I highly recommend it. It saved me a ton of hassle once in Europe. I can confirm it works in Netherlands, France, Belgium, and Luxembourg.

I purchased several of these for a recent trip to Europe and Africa. All the adapters were from the same manufacturer and every one of them worked well every time I used it. If you are looking for information on what kind of adapter you will need for your electronics or whatever else you might plug in, here it is very simply: 1) This is simply an adapter, much like the one you might use at home to convert a three prong plug into a two prong one for an older outlet. It DOES NOT convert the power supply in any way! 2) To determine if you can use this adapter for your computer, phone, whatever, look at the back of your device's charging plug or power supply and look for the label with all the small print electrical information on it. Somewhere on the label, near the top, you will see the word "INPUT" with some numbers following it, usually (hopefully) "100-240v." If it DOES have those numbers (100-240v, sometimes 100-250v) you can use this adapter almost anywhere around the world without any problems because your power supply can handle any voltage within the range of 100 and 240 volts and if there is a place in the world outside that range, I don't know where it is. Your device's power source is handling the conversions you need to safely operate your device so all you need is this adapter so it will fit in the local outlet. 3) On some devices, especially older ones and things like curling irons and hair dryers, that "INPUT" area will only have one number, probably "110v." That device will not convert correctly and you will immediately, with nasty smells, burn out whatever you try to plug in when the massive 220v power surges through your unprepared device. I wouldn't even bother taking stuff like that overseas. The price was very low and considering how I had no problems with any of them, I would rate them as an excellent value. Since the price is so low, I would recommend purchasing two so you have one as a back-up or for the occasional travel companion who, inevitably, doesn't even think about stuff like this.

Great little adapter for European travel!

Bought this to use on Turkey 🇹🇷. Worked very well .

This device is very handy for travel in Europe. It's light, works well and the fact it has 2 places to plug in US devices is a big plus. I purchased one of these about 7 years ago for my Wife and after dozens of trips, if finally wore out so getting a replacement was a no brainer ... highly recommended!

This adapter is great for use in Germany. It also works for other countries in Europe that use the Type E/F socket. There are 3 great features about this product. 1. There are 2 places to plug in your electronics. This is great as many of us travel with a cell phone, camera (especially when traveling) and laptop or PDA. The electronics add up and this plug allows you to charge/use 2 devices at once from one plug. 2. This plug is compact. In the past, we had to convert the power in order to use it to charge/use our electronics overseas. Nowadays many devices can simply use power from the US or Europe or other countries without the need to convert the power. This plug is lightweight and does not add to the bulk of packing for a trip overseas. 3. The product is well built and will not fall apart. Some adapters I have found for less money are really poorly constructed and break when taking them out of the socket. This one is sturdy and feels like it will hold up for constant use.

This product has done all I could ask for so I'm fully satisfied with it. Being from the US, I needed an adapter for all my electronics while in France, so I bought this. Pros: - I've used it almost constantly (24/7) for about four months and there've been no problems - It has an outlet that is grounded (three-pronged plugs) - Small and feels sturdy so very portable Cons: - Only has two outlets - Although it feels sturdy, there's no case and the prongs on the adapter are quite exposed. Thus, I'm quite careful with it because I don't want to take any chances of it being broken. Other notes: - Since it only has two outlets, I bought a surge protector with three outlets so I essentially have four outlets (Simran SM-60 110V-250V Universal 3 Outlet Power Strip/Surge Protector for Worldwide Travel with Overload Protection, Black) and I've had no problems plugging in three things (never needed to try four) - I almost always have my MacBook Pro plugged in (meaning plugged into the surge protector, which is plugged into this adapter)

I took this with me on a recent trip to the Netherlands. It works! It should work in most continental Western European countries. I solely used it to charge my Google pixel phone. In case you are wondering, most cell phone chargers should be able to plug into this without needing a converter. The difference between a converter and an adapter is whether you need to convert the voltage of the electronic item. As European plugs have two rounded prongs rather than America's rectangular prongs, this will adapt any US device to fit into the socket. You should double check the voltage range of your electronics as European sockets operate at 220 - 240 volts while US sockets are 110 - 125 volts. This device doesn't reduce the voltage. I am not an electrician I should warn - but after extensive reading prior to my trip, I found that most consumer electronics such as phones, tablets and laptops should be able to adapt without a converter. You can double check your charger and it should display 110 - 240 v confirming that you only need the adaptor as the device will be able to handle the voltage if it is rated up to 240. For the price I think you can't go wrong, it fulfills a simple function cheaply.

It worked flawlessly in Europe, and the dual plug feature was incredibly handy. I'm not sure why some reviews mention it doesn't fit, as it fit perfectly in our Paris wall socket. Before traveling, I verified with a digital caliper, and the prongs measured 4.75 to 4.8mm – well within the standard specifications.

My travel adapter was damaged and therefore, I had borrowed this travel adapter from my friend. Since, I have used and experienced it, I have ordered it. And I must say it is really a good product for the Europe. Although, it is bit expensive but for the best quality, we have to pay the premium price and it is worth it.

Good plug, nice packaging with no damage, nice design to fit almost all the european sockets, durabilty is still to be tested if I find it poor will update, very portable actually, could be a little cheaper to be value for money but if you want decent quality you can go for it.

Good
