Useful gadget
By ogurek
I purchased this adapter to charge my digital camera in Poland. This adapter was reasonably easy to use and convert plugs as needed. It's outstanding that it goes both ways, for example if I wanted to use a European appliance in the US. I used it a few times with no problems.

This thing will test your patience
By Dave
Only applied the Euro settings on this. The main problem was that the bulk of the adapter and the fact that it did not securely fit into the circle-shaped outlet meant that it would not stay stable once it was plugged into the outlet. We found that we had to use shims made of folded strips of paper to wedge in amid the adapter and the outlet in order to get the plug prongs to maintain their contact, and had to spend 5-10 minutes adjusting the position before we could get it to work. This was not a one-time occurrence: we had to do this each time we wanted to use the adapter in Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, and Poland. It worked, but hardly did it is job.
