We purchased this product prior to a trip to Europe and parts of North Africa. We thought that it would be very useful for our electronics. We actually had to buy this product a second time because the voltage converter blew out (and the plastic around it melted slightly) as a result of my wife's hair flattener, though I'm not sure she read the wattage on it before using the voltage converter. Here's what we've found: Pros - Cheap - Easy to use because the instructions seem somewhat dumby proof - using color coding and symbols. This isn't our first time traveling overseas, so we didn't need it. - The adapters work without issue. They're great. You don't really need to color coding since it's really just about plugging into the outlet whatever fits best. Cons - As I mentioned earlier, the voltage converter burned out on us. In general it gets quite hot - Design issue for wall outlets. The convertor adds to a adapter, which means it all gets heavy, so the whole thing curves downward or can easily fall out if the outlet is old or loose. We worked around this by finding a way to plug it into the floor or table in our hotel We bought this product a second time just to get the the convertor, so it wasn't bad. It was relatively cheaper to do that than buy something else.

I bought 4 different kind of voltage converters for my India trip and this was one of them specifically to plug in electronic equipments at lower wattage 50 Watt setting. I plugged in my Graco baby monitor adapter into this converter. It worked for 8 hours and then damaged my Graco adapter. Later I figured out why it damaged it. The converter gets extremely HOT! Thus it heated up the Graco adapter and eventually damaged it. I should have used an extention cord between the converter and adapter. This product is terrible. There are better (and affordable) converters that do not heat up as much. For example, the 50 Watt converter made by Seven Star Model SS212 works great. I bought this from world gift center for only seven dollars. I use this for my wireless router 24/7 and it has not caused any problems so far. It does not heat up at all. I wish I had bought more of these. The SMF-200 step down converter is also good but it does heat up a little bit. The good thing is that it provides 200 Watts for electronic equipments. I use this for my Sonicare tooth brush and Graco monitor receiver.

It worked fine for charging our phones and curling iron but could not get it to work for AA battery recharger for my camera. Not sure what I did wrong. I liked the very sturdy plastic box which kept everything in it's place.

I just returned from a wonderful trip to Ireland, Germany and Austria. The Power Line 0900-27 Global Power Travel Kit was an important element of my enjoyment, and its 1.7 pound weight was not detrimental to my travels. I used it every day and recommend it for anyone traveling outside the United States.

The main one doesn't project far enough to fit into european sockets. (two round prongs) many times the european outlet is setin, therefore the prongs need to be longer or a mechanism is needed to project the prongs. further, nothing accomodates the ground portion of an american plug. But that is probably not needed in Europe.

I have a very large dog, and while looking at kennels to ship her back to the states with me when I move from Germany, I decided that it wasn't going to be feasible for me to purchase a new and found a used one at a great price. It, however, did not come with the required food/water bowls. I'm not worried about whether the food/water bowls stay up or attached properly or whether the food and water stays in them during the plane ride, as it's only 8 hours and she won't eat or drink without my presence anyway. I just needed them to pass through customs and the laws here. The stickers that came with the set stuck very well to the kennel and I don't foresee any problems with them falling off during the drive to the airport or the flight itself. Great purchase for cheap!

The pet dishes in this package are great and exactly as described. But I would hardly call the liner they include a liner, it is more like a thin strip of paper thin cardboard material. I doubt this will absorb much but it is better than nothing. Other types of pet absorbent pads offer much better protection.

Even though this product is cheap, it's a little much for a piece of cardboard and two plastic mini bowls.

The labels themselves are perfect for their purpose. However, for the price, I would have included an extra set. Also, if you're putting out the money it cost for the 'airline-approved' crate, the travel package should be included, at no extra cost, in the purchase.

It works just fine, you DO have to push these on harder to get them to stay put.. i didn't have any problems with them staying on. If you're traveling this is a great idea!

I bought this item for a knitting friend of mine for Christmas, and in turn received one myself! It's slightly larger than the palm of my hand (the pictures make it seem smaller) and has just about everything I need for most knitting projects. The scissors work great, as do the needle-tip caps. The only thing that is blatantly missing is a plastic yarn needle, which I added and conveniently fits into the back storage area. I take The Knit Kit with me on road trips and and it says it's TSA approved so I can bring it on my next flight, thought I haven't tried this yet. It's nice to have everything all together. The thread cutter is a little hard to open (I've broken a few nails on it, but I rarely use it, so it's not a big deal to me) and for some reason there's no easy way to reset the stich counter, you just need to click it back to zero by pushing the wheel with your fingernail. Oh, and the "lock" feature is pretty weak (doesn't lock anything that I can tell). For what I need though, this is perfect. Measuring tape, crochet hook for fishing out dropped stiches, scissors, stich counter, stich markers, and needle-tip caps, I'm in geeky knitting gadget heaven.

This is great when you knit on the run. I'm still hard pressed to leave behind my standbys. The scissors BARELY cut yarn, which was a bit sad, but the other features are great and I would rather have those scissors than nothing.

I got this in my Christmas stocking (yeah, it was on my wish list) and I've found it to be very helpful. I wouldn't use the crochet hook for much other than a small emergency and I added a plastic sewing needle of my own, but other than that, I have no criticsm of this handy little kit that has already been quickly tossed into a project bag on my way out the door.

If you're a new knitter just gathering supplies, GET THIS. It has all the little odds and ends you will frequently use as you become more experienced. If you're an old hand, GET THIS. It's the perfect knitting traveling companion. It's small and compact and has everything you'll need when you're knitting on the go. Between the Knit Kit, my Knit Picks interchangeable needles, and some yarn, I don't need anything else! If you need a little more of an idea how awesome this is, the week before Thanksgiving I was on a road trip from Salt Lake City to Los Angeles. I decided to knit the Subway Mittens, an Interweave Knits pattern. The first mitten was knit before I got the Knit Kit (I found an awesome yarn store in LA). I fumbled around my bag for scraps of yarn for stitch markers, dug through my pocket for clippers to cut yarn, and kept losing a crochet hook. Well, I got the Knit Kit and the knitting of the second mitten on the way back to Salt Lake was a breeze. It was so nice to just have to feel for the smooth plastic case of the Knit Kit and pluck out what I needed. It's a great gadget and it will make the perfect gift for any knitter.

The concept for this product is good. The execution is not so good. The materials are cheaply made plastic. The crochet hook is permanently bent, so it is almost impossible to use to pick up dropped stitches. It IS handy for keeping all of your "knitting notions" together, but I would rather put things together in a baggie so that I can have better quality products in one spot.

I like it, specially for the price. The only small problem I had was sometimes my phone won't read it, it would say unable to charge. But it could also be my phone because I've seen that before.

I know the price of this item is appealing, but the actual kit is very cheap quality. The nasal suction was just horrible (mine arrived broken). I returned this kit immediately after receiving it. Would only recommend under dire circumstances.

This mommy helper kit has the medicine spoons, nail cutter, ice pack.. all the basics in one little convenient pouch. They all work well. Although I do use my own thermometer, I like it for the consolidation of essentials it offers.

I had read about the DevaFuser quite a while ago in a magazine and considered buying it ever since, hoping it would make it easier to dry my curly hair during the winter months when I can't let it air dry. I waws excited when it arrived and immediately read the directions and tried it. What a disappointment. First, with the extra attachment, I got it to fit on my blow dryer, but had to hold it very carefully since it kept falling off. The instructions and a label on the dryer itself stated that it could only be used on low heat and low air setting. This made it virtually useless. It took forever to dry and did not do a good job with my curls. My regular diffuser that I've had for years does a much better job. I thought this could help make drying quicker and the curls look better because the fingers would get into the middle of my hair. That did not turn out to be true at all. This was a total waste of money.

I love the diffuser, it dries my hair evenly without parching the ends. Much better than a traditional diffuser, this can be inserted into the bulk of the hair to dry from the roots down. I would give it 5 stars, but the elastic band on the adapter broke after 2 months of use. Before, I had some trouble with the adapter sliding off. No worries, I duct taped the sucker onto my hair dryer.

I was somewhat satisfied with the regular finger diffusers, but they never quite gave me what I was looking for. I've been wanting the Deva brand hair diffuser but I couldn't justify paying upwards of $185 for it. When I saw Deva finally came up with a DevaFuser attachment I had to get it. I love it, absolutely love it. The universal attachment fit my Vidal Sassoon Professional Diffuser Dryer perfectly. The modeling of it being more of a hand cradling the head rather than a regular diffuser awkwardly sitting on the scalp has offered a tremendous difference in how my hair is gently dried. Since I started using it I've been able to wear my hair down again. Also setting my hair by "plopping" also called "plunking" before using the diffuser has added to amazing results. When using the DeveFuser keep in mind to switch between the warm and cool setting on a medium speed, and never use the hot setting.

It took me a little while to figure out the best way to use the DevaFuser. Now that I've got it, I think this is the best diffuser out there. Unfortunately, the adapter is not made for dryers that get hotter than the extremely expensive Deva Dryer the diffuser was originally made for. The adapter eventually melted most of the teeth that hold it in place and the interior silicone band has come off. I hope they fix this flaw and until they do, I'm back to my traditional diffuser.

I really liked this diffusor. I have long wavy/beachy style hair and I was pleased with the curl that the diffusor allowed the top of my head to maintain. My only recommendation is to ensure you spread products evenly enough--I tend to skimp on the top of my head and it can get a little frizzy, but for me, it's just a matter of finding the perfect combination of product to add in. My waves were consistent from top to bottom and that is unheard of with long hair in the winter.

The quality of items in this kit, and many others, are fairly cheap. Furthermore, the inside of this case (which is removable), is very difficult to manage, and is not well laid out for emergencies. Finally, about 1/3 of the items included are fairly extraneous...sunscreen, bug bite wipe, bug repellent. Definitely better off building your own kit from scratch. The only good thing about the whole thing is the exterior beefiness of the bag.

Comes with a lot and handy case seems perfect for our RV and boat..would make an excellent gift for the outdoorsy type as well. Would buy again and would highly recommend.

Deffinatly look at the size measurements for this item!!!! I was expecting a larger item but when it arrived I could only think.....why did they send me the mini version? Not bad though.

This first aid kit is truly a remarkable one, it is small, neat, light weight and easy carrying. Equipped with emergency preparedness items that will suit you emergency needs. I love it and recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good international 250-piece first aid kit. The price is very reasonable as well, check it out and make your order right now before it run out of stock. Amazon, the best!!! Total Resources International 250-Piece Outdoor First Aid Kit in Red EVA Case

Not impressed. Most of the 250 pieces are useless in real life. I mean a packet of drinking water? It is a pretty small kit. I threw away a bunch of stuff to make room for things that need to be in it. I should have bought a bag and stuffed it my self at Walgreen's.

I am very pleased with the chargers that I received - I can charge my iPod almost wherever I am, and it is so convenient.

I couldn't have asked for more. It came with a travel charger, car charger and a USB plug - for about $5 including shipping. First of all, I can charge anything that uses a USB plug which i think is awesome, so it works for almost everything, and I do the same with the car charger. And i keep the USB cable it comes with as a back up, just incase my current one breaks. I really recommend this product especially for its prices.

I needed another charger for my ipod and iphone. Bought this for less then $5 and came within a week. No complaints here.

I purchased these peices as a backup for the iPod I gave my mother. She can be tough on things but everything is still working.

Everything came just like they said. it was cheap and perfect! thank you! buy from them!!
