Pros –
Charges the Kindle quickly (although this is more a property of the Kindle itself)
It’s white – this helps to differentiate it from the brazillions of other charging devices cluttering my life.
Cons -
Metal pin is fragile – don’t put too much force on the connection pin to the Kindle. It’s easy to snap off and not as easy to repair. Hence – me writing this review of a replacement charger in the first place…
Summary –
It’s a no frills charger, and it does ithe job well.

The Kindle Power Adapter works just as it should, charges the unit without a problem. I appreciate the way they positioned the prongs on the unit, so it works sideways giving it a low profile and allowing me to plug in to an extension cord or a regular outlet that may already have a few ‘fat’ adapter on it. This is a space-saver , especially if one has many gadgets.

I got this to charge my Kindle. It does the job it was made for, so I can’t ask for anything more.

Myself you can’t go wrong with ordering the original adapter for the Kindle. Yes, there are others out on the market, but for a home AC adapter, this is what I think is best. It’s the one that Amazon makes, has a long cord and you know you’re getting the right product. Yes, they were on backorder but now they’re in. I ordered an two extra to keep on hand for those “just in case” scenes.

replacement charger for my Kindle
I talked with a representative and was given instructions how to order a replacement charger for my Kindle. The instructions were very plain and very easy to follow.

Buy this one
Buy this charger, not the fake one that costs a few dollars less. This one works perfectly and unfortunately, the look alike doesn’t.

perfect except slightly loose fit
The only problem I have with this is that the fit could be a little tighter. Otherwise, great

That’s why I needed a new one. It works great.

Not happy
I purchased my Kindle in October and I am all ready having to replace the power adapter. It is very fragile. I love the Kindle, but having to put out $17.
