Disclaimer: This review is based on my first impression of the product.

Great length and works well, great price

Just long enough. Works to power a vga monitor.

Delivers power to my device when plugged in. Operates as a cord. Has desired length within detectable parameters. Looks as pictured, within detectable parameters. It has not split, frayed, or caught fire throughout the course of the last month I’ve owned it, throughout which Amazon has been asking me for reviews. Basically, it works like your typical power cable. I’ve never owned a defective one, as a matter of fact. I’ve pulled them out of garage sale and auction boxes and right out of people’s trash, and they’ve supplied power as though it was their sole purpose. I have fifteen of these lying around. I just needed a longer one. It works like the short ones, only it can reach all the way around my desk to the power supply. Neither the power supply nor monitor has begun misbehaving or caught fire since connecting them with this cable. Cable seems to have sturdy construction and not contain asbestos, lead, or rat feces. It was quite new-looking when I got it, and had a pleasant “new electronics” smell that you just don’t get out of storage lockers. Dear Amazon: have you considered a “this item does not warrant review and you should please stop bothering me to write one” button? You’ll get a lot less wordy, content-free reviews that way. You have about ten days to comply with this before I break down and review that flipping warranty I bought on a different item. Thank you for your business. Actually, I’m curious. What compels someone to read a review on a power cable? Poor Google image search results? I don’t blame anyone. In case anyone’s curious, yes, this is the cable you connect to the wall and to the tower of your computer. And most monitors. And some modern laptop chargers (though a lot of them still use stupid custom heads because it’s still 1995). Fortunately, we’ve arrived at a point where even Apple got on board with USB-C. This is actually a huge step forward for the human race, and possibly for the Amazon review system. You no longer have to find the correct orientation for your USB chargers! I mean, within reason. There’s no concept of upside-down anymore, is what I’m saying. But anyway, if you’re looking for a notebook charger line, this probably isn’t it. I mean, why would you order such a thing on Amazon, anyway? Run down to Radio Shack and—oh my God. Touché, Amazon. Touché. Now I’m going to have to write a review every time I go downtown to buy a capacitor. The tears are actually welling up in my eyes. I don’t think I can take the stress. All the emails… all the unanswered questions… things… I never… thought… to ask… about an inductor…. It’s only going to get worse for me, from here. I should write up my will, now, while I’m ahead. Um. I don’t know who to leave this computer to. It’s basically an Amazon review box serving machine, at this point. I guess it plays games. I could be playing some games right now. That would be good. Except I can’t find them. All I see is the reviews. Oh God. I’m lost in a sea of reviews. I’m drowning in things to review. “Please review this camera case you bought for your parents but forgot to mark as a gift.” “Please review this camera you DID mark as a gift, but then it was junk so we shipped a new one that wasn’t marked as a gift.” AND THEN THERE’S THAT WARRANTY. I think I even reviewed the device it warrants. Why am I supposed to review the warranty? Why isn’t that just included? It was just a checkbox! “Click here to exchange $4 for the promise that Kool-Aid cannot ruin your life in the foreseeable future!” So I did, and now it wants an essay. I can’t even be all, “YEAH, IT’S ALL GOOD; FIVE STARS! WOO! I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT WHETHER YOU’LL ACTUALLY REIMBURSE ME IF MY CAMERA DIES, BUT YOU’VE GOT MOXIE. I LIKE THAT. 5/5 A+ WOULD BUY AGAIN.” Anyway, we’re at the point now where the automated review system is going to detect that this isn’t actually a review and not publish it. Possibly a meta-analysis based on the number of occurrences of the word “review” coupled with the number of all-uppercase words. I think I must have tripped both of those meters by now. Wait, is someone actually going to read this? I’ve just been stream-of-conscious’ing this while my lunch heats up. I’m not even terribly shaken up about this whole stupid review process. But yeah, I guess I’ll go eat some food. Sorry for any, like, wall-of-text completionists who felt compelled to read this whole thing as though it contained some pearl of information. Here’s the only pearl: Perl isn’t a good language. Anyway, yeah. If you’re here because you need an extra-long power cable, just buy this thing. Hail Amazon. The cake is a work of falsehood. Shop for a whopper. Good night.

Plugged it in and chugged away at my work. Worked great.
