I think that it would be fair to say that the reviews of this product have been mixed. As some reviews indicated that the product was dangerous, it was with some trepidation that it was ordered. However, having now received and fitted the product entirely satisfactorily I am a loss to understand some of the other oomments. This is a device that is intended to enable a lead terminating in a continental type 2 pin plug to be inserted safely into a UK 13 amp 3 pin socket. On opening up the cover, 2 clips are revealed that accept the pins of the continental plug. Once the pins are pushed firmly into the clips, the cover is closed, the retaining screw tightened and the continental plug is retained safely and securely within the body of the converter plug. It is a good product at a reasonable price that does its job well.

I think the best feature of this item is that you don't notice it once installed. It covers the whole EU plug, maybe a bit tight during initial set up but that only ensures that it does not fell out during the use. Looks like it came with the item. Simply does what it should.

This adaptor does a good job of converting a two pin Europlug to a UK three pin one. The Europlug is gripped firmly by the adaptor and then held in place with two screws.
This system works well and is very secure in use. I have seen similar adaptors which just clip the Europlug in place but whilst being more versatile and easy to swap from one plug to another, they are less secure in use. One thing to take note of is that a standard Europlug fits fine to this unit but those with an integral power transformer, such as those often supplied with computer equipment, do not.
These units are slightly dearer than you might hope for but perhaps that is the price you pay for build quality and robustness.

Better than a shaver adapter plug
I got a new cordless electric shaver for a present. Like most shavers the charger has a European plug and needs an adapter for a 3 pin socket. Read more

It works!
Exactly the same as in the pictures. It arrives unscrewed, you connect up your Euro plug inside and screw it closed. Job done.

Not fit for purpose
These plug adaptors are simply not fit for the purpose for which they are intended. In fact I would go as far as to say they could potentially be dangerous. Read more
