Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am on my third 90W AC Adapter, and this one is now showing signs of failure. It is failing in the same way that the other reviewers have said; the wires start fraying near the barrel jack that plugs into the notebook. This is how my previous two died.
On average they have lasted around 6 months before dying. I take special care to not bend that area of the cord excessively, and in general I treat my laptop and accessories with extreme care when handling them, but even with my pampered treatment of my AC Adapter, it is dying through no fault of my own.
I have called the support lines about this many times, and they will not acknowledge that this is any fault of their product.
Ideally, the cord that leads from the brick to the computer would be user-replaceable like the cord that leads from the brick to the AC wall jack is. Instead of paying $60 or so for a new AC Adapter, one could pay $10 or so for a new cord. That would definitely improve my rating of this product.
I will say that while it is in working condition, it functions as any reliable AC adapter should. But, I cannot rate it any higher than the two stars I have given it, knowing that it eventually fails to function through no misuse.
