Annabelle –
I recently purchased the Ansmann EU to UK adapter to use on my travels to the UK. As a nurse living in Virginia Beach, I needed a reliable adapter to charge my phone and other devices when I’m overseas. The Ansmann adapter has been great so far and has an overall rating of 4 out of 5 for me.
The adapter fits securely in the sockets and is easy to use. The only downside is that it does not have any USB-outlets, which would have been convenient to have. However, this was not a major issue for me as I had other adapters with USB-outlets to use.
In comparison to another popular electrical accessory, I have also used a Belkin SurgePlus USB Travel Charger. This product is different from the Ansmann adapter in that it has two USB-outlets in addition to the electrical outlets. However, the Belkin product is bulkier and takes up more space in my luggage. It also has a surge protector, which the Ansmann adapter does not have, but I haven’t had any issues with electrical surges during my travels.
The delivery of the Ansmann EU to UK adapter was smooth and hassle-free. I ordered it online and it reached me in Virginia Beach within a week. The purchase itself had a funny story behind it – I had planned a trip to the UK without realizing that they have different outlets. So, I had to quickly order an adapter before my trip. I’m glad that I chose the Ansmann adapter as it has been reliable and has served its purpose well.

Dear Annabelle,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Ansmann EU to UK adapter. As a fellow traveler and healthcare professional, I can relate to the importance of having a reliable electrical accessory while abroad. After reading your review, I couldn’t help but notice some points that I disagree with based on my personal experiences.
Firstly, regarding the lack of USB-outlets, while it may not have been an issue for you, I find this to be a major disadvantage. In today’s age where we rely heavily on our smartphones and other USB-powered devices, having multiple charging options is crucial. This is especially important when traveling with multiple people or if you are using multiple devices simultaneously. The Belkin SurgePlus USB Travel Charger that you mentioned does offer this feature, which makes it a more versatile option for me.
Secondly, while I agree that the Ansmann adapter fits securely in the sockets and is easy to use, I have found that some other adapters on the market have similar features but also include surge protection. This added feature provides an extra level of safety and peace of mind when traveling to areas with unpredictable power surges or outages.
Lastly, while the delivery of your adapter was smooth, I have had mixed experiences with online ordering and delivery times for electrical accessories. In my experience, some adapters take significantly longer than a week to reach their destination, which can be a major inconvenience when traveling on a tight schedule.
That being said, I do not want to discredit your positive experience with the Ansmann adapter as everyone’s needs and preferences are different. However, I would like to inspire optimism and positivity by introducing you to another electrical accessory that may better suit your needs – the BESTEK International Travel Adapter Plug. This adapter not only includes two USB-outlets but also surge protection and is compact enough to fit in your luggage without taking up too much space. I have personally used this adapter during my travels to multiple countries, and it has exceeded my expectations in terms of reliability and versatility.
Thank you for considering my opinion, and I hope that you find this information helpful as you continue your travels. Safe journeys!
