 Extremely poor qualityMar 15, 2008
By Mr Merc
This lock is of "VERY POOR" quality. I bought it for my Dell Inspiron. It fits easily into the slot, but I was able to pull it out with a short tug. It will give absolutely "NO" protection to your laptop. It has an extremely flimsy mechanism. There was a $6 shipping fee. You might as well take $12 and throw it in the garbage. I wasted my money, don't waste yours.

 Quality=PriceAug 17, 2007
By S. Williams
Very poor quality, I wouldn't count on it to protect your computer. It didn't fit my HP notebook and then broke in my hands within ten minutes of opening. May be a waste of your five bucks (plus shipping).

Biohazard!! Deadly toxic smell! IT KILLS!Sep 02, 2011
By Charlie Chiang
It's the MOST TOXIC-SMELLY product I have ever received in my life. The toxic and chemical smell is so horrible that it smells DEADLY, yes, it feels that it could kill you or others if you smell it over an extended period of time. The smell is first felt after opening the package, and after careful inspection, I think the smell is from the plastic part of the lock, including the handle of the keys. I guess the manufacturer wants to save cost at any costs, so it uses some poorly recycled and toxic plastic?
The worse thing is that the smell is so strong, it actually spreads through the whole house!I immediately threw it away, and then spent sometime to pack it in a plastic bag. Otherwise, it would contaminate my bathroom.
One day later, I filed a return, but apparently I need to pay $5+ shipping in order to get only one cent back. This makes it nonreturnable because I'll pay more to get less money back. I suspect that the seller already knows that the product is defective due to its smell, so it sells it dirt cheap just to get rid of the product!
The seller is very unethical! These locks should be all thrown away, not resold again!!

 Good value for ordinary security purpose.Oct 31, 2010
By H. Wang
"jwangamazon"
I am looking for a low-priced cable lock to leave my netbook at work, but not have "borrowed" without my permission.
After digesting all the good/bad reviews, I take the chance to give it a try. My total cost is $3 + $2.49(shipping) + $0.28(tax) = $5.77. I really don't expect a fancy cable lock with this low price.
To my surprise, it works nice and fits my need well.
The length of this 1/8-diameter cable lock is 43 inches per my measurement. This shorter length and thinner cable makes it easier to carried around in my netbook pouch. It is simple to attach and to remove. It fits easily into my Acer AO532H netbook.
Not sure about the smell mentioned by other reviewers. The one I received is very normal and doesn't have any special smell.
For high theft areas, don't use this one!!! You sure need a thick heavy-duty cable, but for ordinary security (like library, work place), this one is good.
In summary, again, this is "NOT" a heavy duty cable lock. Based on what I have paid for and what I am using this cable for, this cable fits my need well.
