Good for grounded schuko sockets only September 3, 2010
Kristine P.
I bought this adapter so I could use electronic devices with American plugs in France. It fits well into round grounded European schuko sockets, but will not fit into the smaller recessed non-grounded sockets I was surprised to find in many places. If you only use non-grounded American plugs, the smaller non-grounded adapter will be more versatile as it will fit in all sockets.
 Poor Quality September 1, 2010

This item does work but it is not well constructed and fell apart after a few days of use. Also, it fit well in most French plugs, but in others the spacing was slightly off and it would not. There are many lower priced, better quality alternatives.
 Great Price, Worked Great Too August 21, 2010

These were a lifesaver in our recent trip to Spain. We brought two different types of European adapters, but only this one worked (and it was much cheaper). It fits nicely into the recessed plugs we found in our Spanish hotels, and accepted both polarized and grounded US plugs.
Simple product, does what it says, built well. August 11, 2010

I've been looking for a simple adapter that will take a USA plug and allow it to be used in European electric sockets. This VCT plug adapter does that and does it well.
I've had variants of this type of product for many years and usually the problem is that they made flimsily and the sockets are loose, leading your electrical device to fall off the plug. This one is well built and the slots are snug.
Also the adapter does not extend too far from its own slot, so does not prevent you from using multiple plugs.

I bought this adapter for my trip to Switzerland so I could recharge camera batteries. In spite of it being sold as a European adapter, the prongs didn't fit. They were too big. This adapter may work for some European countries, but not for Switzerland!
