Retractable Car Charger for Nokia 6350

Retractable Car Charger for Nokia 6350I like that the cord is retractable so that it doesn't dangle and get in the way. The only thing you have to be careful about is that the charger is fully inserted into the power outlet (check to see that the charging light is on). If it's just a little loose, you can't necessarily tell and you'll find out that the phone hasn't been charging at all.

I bought two of these chargers-one for me and one for my daughter. BOTH stopped working after 11 months of limited use. Hmmmmmmmmmm. Coincidence or planned obsolescence?? The latter I believe.

Two years later, after light use, it's done. Will no longer charge. Probably because the cord is coming apart at the base of the plug.

One year later...actually it's been a little over a year, but we've had a problem that we noticed quite some time ago, so probably after a year of use. The connections are weak. The end you plug into your phone catches on the casing as it's retracting, so it slowly weakened the cord. It's starting to crack a little, so be careful not to fully retract the cord into the casing.

Also, it gets finicky sometimes and doesn't want to charge certain phones (we use this for a couple different ones in the family that all use the same charger (woohoo)). It will randomly quit charging so you have to unplug and plug it in again to get the juice flowing. It annoys the crap out of my husband, but I figured it comes with the territory when you buy a $5 charger. If you want something that is going to work perfectly, this is probably not for you.

Original review: I recently bought this and so far all seems good. I really like the retractable feature. Lets you pull the cord out only as much as you need and stays put. Also, there's a little button to push and the cord is gently pulled right back into the compartment (rather than snapping back in violently...one year later, apparently it does not have to snap back violently to do damage to the charger). Only thing is that I can't see the recharge light because of the way my car is, but that's no big deal because my phone beeps to let me know it's plugged in to charge. I would definitely recommend this!
