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

The replacement Kindle charger I ordered from Amazon was the exact same cord I had received with my original Kindle. My original cord had been broken at the Kindle end and also had a few breaks in the cord where it got mashed. Taking care of the cord will keep me from having to order another one, athough Amazon is amazing and got my order to me quickly.

I had to buy a replacement Kindle power adapter because mine was coming apart and wires were showing. I believe the hard cover around the wires should be more flexible. The outer covering is a hard plastic which makes it crack with all the movement of the cord. I wish they would re-design the outer plastic cord and make it more flexible.

UPDATE: After reviewing other reviews, and after purchase, I contacted customer support online and requested a refund due to a defective product. Within 12 hours, I received a response indicating that they have provided a full refund on my purchase and 1 day shipping for my product. I will still receive it tomorrow. Excellent customer service and turnaround time. However, Amazon still needs to address the quality issues with the adapter product. ___________________________________________________________________ Original Review: After a few months of use, the charger became loose when plugged into the Kindle. I originally thought that maybe the Kindle opening for the charger was defective, or became defective over a period of time, causing the charger to not fit. As long as I wriggled the charger and set it very carefully after getting the yellow light, I could get a charge. After a time, using the charger plugged into the wall stopped working completely. I had to get a replacement Kindle, and thought that I would finally be able to charge successfully, based upon my original thought that the Kindle opening was defective. However, after receiving the replacement Kindle, the charging issue got worse. I realized then that the issue was the actual charger itself; not the Kindle. So, here I am, ordering a new charger. Therefore, the issue actually started a few months after the purchase of my Kindle; not a year after my purchase of the Kindle. I would like for Amazon to address this issue. It appears that there are many problems with the charger; not just the fact that the charger becomes loose and capricious in its charging ability. I do not want to have to buy a new charger every three months, because I live in Mexico, and only come to the states every now and again.

I am on to my third now. The first adapter stopped charging, the second also died plus the cable started to disintegrate exposing the inner core while I was on a trip! So I just bought a cable in Bestbuy and used the comp. to charge it I will not be buying any more.

This works for the Kindle and I dont know what else. Its fine, does the job, inexpensive enough. Its white so I can easily find it in the nest of black adaptors I own!

Having misplaced my Kindle 2 Power adapter, I promptly ordered a replacement. The adapter was delivered in a timely manner and works exactly as it should. As is usual with my dealings with Amazon.com, everything was done in a professional and efficient manner.

Before I took a trip I knew that I would want to charge my Kindle while I was away and did not have a power cable. I order this cable and took it and was so pleased with how well it met my needs.

My husbands original cord had the plastic coating around the wires flake off. Not sure what happened there. He needed a replacement so we went to Amazon to order. Your service was very fast and accurate. Kudos for a job well done!

This Kindle Power Adapter works and looks exactly like the original one that we lost while on vacation. This includes the AC to USB adapter and the USB to Kindle cable. The small adapter can also be used to power other USB cable powered devices, like my iTouch, which is nice and reduces the number of chargers we need to haul along with us. Recommended! CFH

Very satisfied. Our dog had chewed up our first Kindle charger cord and we ordered a replacement. Ordering was easy, the package came quickly and was just what we ordered. Cant think of anything to improve it, except maybe to lower the price of the charger a bit. Thanks.
