I got this product and this one:

at the same time, I was going to buy two anyway so I figured I'd get two different kinds in case I'd picked a dud... Glad I did! The other one takes up a little more space than this product, but it's totally worth it considering that this one stopped retracting on the third or fourth use. As if that weren't bad enough, it does not charge my Blackberry for some reason. When I attach a micro USB adaptor, my iPad charges perfectly fine, but a straight connection to the phone does nothing. Now that I have used both products, I wish I would have bought two of the other one.

Great little travel cable. Self winding, does not take up a lot of room, using it to charge / sync Samsung Galaxy S3, Kindle readers, fire and fire 8.9 HD.I'm constantly extending and retracting this thing while at work and at this point the spring is a bit worn and it needs a little coaching to retract all the way. Also the this gauge wire makes for longer than normal charge times.I bought two of these in February. I had been using a 3' model made by another manufacturer, and wanted a little more max cable length. For a few months all was well. It's tricky to get the cable to retract all the way, the housing is a bit too snug to fit all the wound cable. So there's that. Then sometime in May the plastic housing supporting the micro USB connector cracked and fell off one of the two I'd bought. I wound some dental floss around it to reinforce it, and it has stayed fixed. Hey, stuff happens. But a couple of days ago the second one I bought had the exact same problem. Clearly a flaw in the design, especially in light of the fact that these cables don't get a ton of use and are not used roughly at all. Both mine are still usable, but the floss looks silly, and I shouldn't have needed to repair them both in just a few months.works great for charging and data, also small and the retractable means no cable clutter or getting it messed up from putting it in a pocketonly downside is the retracting mechanism does jam some times you just have to pull it all the way out and then it will retract again still docking it one star for this otherwise exactly as expected
