Reviewer: Dominic Neil,
Does exactly what you want it to. Of course this is NOT a voltage converter, it merely changes the physical plug from US to UK. As such, the voltage on your American item needs to support the UK 240v. Please ignore the bad reviews of this product, they are from people too stupid to realize this and who plugged an American 115v product into a UK 240v socket, thus blowing fuses. This converter has no 'voltage' of its own.

If your product doesn't support 240v then you need a voltage converter, not just a socket converter.

My Zune charger supports 100v-240v, so this works just fine.
Swagger-Lasso Are Tops!

Reviewer: David Renwick Grant, Angus, Scotland
I ordered a travel plug adaptor from Swagger-Lasso on 24th November for £0.01, shipping & handling £3.50. It arrived on 26th! It was well-packed and did what a plug adaptor is meant to do: that is, in this case, it enabled me to use a US two-pin plug with a UK three-pin one. The equipment had its own electrical adaptor, so there was no question of it not working with our 240v UK system. It was just a plug adaptor, but well made and 'fit for purpose.' In addition, the speed of delivery was remarkable. This is what makes Internet shopping so very useful and I commend the product and this seller to everyone.
Item from K.K.Electronics is fine.

Reviewer: C. Marner, Nottingham, UK
I bought 4-off of the US to UK adaptors from KK Electronics. These are quality items, and came packaged as per the item pictured. Ordered on Thursday and they arrived 2 days later. Very happy with item and service. WRT the comment on shipping costs - these items don't cost 1p, but Amazon restricts third party sellers on the shipping costs they can charge, so the sellers reduce the item cost to a minimal amount such that the total cost is representative of the actual cost of the shipped item. More often than not (but not in this case) they are competing with Amazon itself, as you can't get the free super saver shipping with third party sellers.
Does what it is supposed to do
