Amazon Kindle US (Type A, United States) Power Adapter [Fits Kindle and Kindle DX]

Was dissappointed that it had to come from China, but it works just fine. Got it faster from China than I would have the USA.

Theres no good reason why such adapters are proprietary. They should be universal. What a waste of money (mine), energy (for shipping the product), and resources (the material to make precisely this unique thing). I shudder to think about the cost to our planet in terms of waste. Come up with a universal adapter, share the specs openly, let the market compete, and put this kind of thing in my pocket for $1 or less. And let me own one or a small number for all the devices my busy family uses.

Because I have an older Kindle, I was concerned about finding a replacement. This works perfectly and Im happy to have a recharger that can also connect and recharge my kindle from my computer as well as a wall socket. (I can use that when overseas)

I misplaced my powercord to my Kindle and was facing not having it for several weeks. I ordered online and received it the NEXT day! I am very impressed with the quick delivery and Amazons ability to keep feeding my addiction to the amazing Kindle.

You can not beat the price. The adapter is fantastic because it gives you the choice to plug into a wall or into a computer. I received the item much quicker than I expected. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

When I wrote to Amazon about the damaged power adapter on my Kindle, they wrote back saying that they would send me a free replacement if I requested overnight delivery. I did so. The next day, I received the replacement with a bill for the adapter plus a postage charge that doubled the cost of the adapter! This experience contrasts strongly with my past Amazon experiences, when I received outstanding customer service. It is also a complete mismatch for the Kindle product, which provides such an esthetically pleasing experience that I would not exchange it for any existing internet-enabled, function-rich device of the same size. I sincerely hope that the bill was a simple mistake and not a change in policy.

I love my Kindle and wouldnt use any other reader, however the USB cable with the 110 Volt adapter is below par in material. The coating on the cable is not the same as used on standard USB cables, for some reason they used a coating that is stiffer and in my case has started to crumble and fall off leaving the metal sheath bare at both ends. The cable is still usable but the poor quality of this part is unacceptable. I keep the cable in the neopreme case that I store the Kindle in so the cable is not exposed to sunlight or other hazards that might cause the plastic coating to fail. The replacement part that I bought is also made with the same poor quality sheathing, maybe by the time I have to buy another USB power cable they will switch to the sheathing used on standard USB cables, which I leave out and has lasted over eight years with no hint of failure of the cable coating.

While it was not the original kindle charger from Amazon the charger works perfectly with my kindle. I am quite happy with this purchase.

Electricity flows through it. It has an external color. I havent lost it in a hotel room yet.

my original charger was so cheaply made that the plastic covering crumbled away from the wire. Since I did not report it ( A lesson there) for 13 months I had to buy a new one to replace the original substandard one.
