So far I am very happy with this charger. I love how you are able to not only charge your MacBook, but also iPhone from the same base at the same time! It is lightweight and portable. And the best part are the little things, such as being able to unplug the cord from the charger for easier stowage, and the indicator light on the charger itself so you know it is plugged in when you are just charging your phone - these features are icing on the cake. Additionally the cable and cord are amply long. Perhaps the best feature is that the charger base has a cord that plugs into the outlet. In the previous aftermarket charger I purchased from a different company, it had the plug in the base only - which is what ultimately caused it to fail. A base is too heavy to plug into a wall socket without it damaging the prongs. With this base you don't have to worry about that, nor do you have to worry if there will be enough room to accommodate your base on a power strip. You simply run the cord and plug it in. My hope is that this will last much longer than the after market charger I purchased from a different company (that one lasted 4 months and then failed). I really hope the quality is as fantastic as the design - because I love the design and am totally sold on it!
