I bought this for a non-PC usage to power a semi-portable device. Often, PC power cables have a ton of insulation and are way too chunky for what they do. This cord is nice – it’s very soft and pliable and can easily to coiled into a small bundle without having to battle the cord thickness.
Both connectors seem like standard quality. It’s simple and it works.

It’s a power cord identical to all the other power cords for computer power supplies, flat screen TV sets and so on. It fits properly into the socket and works as it should. There’s nothing more to say! The one I bought is 18 AWG, so only good for up to 10-amperes. They sell a 14 AWG version if you need more capacity.

Simply a computer power wire. Plugged it into the Power supply and the other end in the wall and it worked. One different feature was it is longer that those supplied with most power supplies. Obviously this may be a plus for you or a negative if you outlet/power strip is located close and the extra wire is just annoying.

Cord is as advertised. Needed one for PC power supply and ended up receiving delivery same day. Ordered right before 1700h and it was at my front door by 2000h. Works as it should. Cord is very thick and seems like it will joldnip just fine over time though it won’t see much movement or stress if any at all. Definitely a great bargain that’s for sure.

Most PC power cables that come with things like PSUs are the standard 6ft. I needed something just a couple of feet longer in order to put my computer where I wanted it, and I didn’t want to deal with daisy-chaining extension cables or power strips.
The cable feels sturdily built, although it is just a standard cable. It works like a standard cable and is built like a standard cable. It does the job but it isn’t anything special (not that anyone needs anything special). I can’t remember off-hand what the ratings were (its already plugged in and carrying power), but I know it exceeded the 15A capacity of a standard wall plug so probably 16/3. Just regular PVC insulation and not fancy silicone or anything like that, but more or less identical to the cords that come with computers/PSUs.
It came wrapped in a really (excessively) tight pressed coil so expect to spend some time working it straight if that is important to you, but it will never be perfect.

I had a difficult time finding the one that went to my computer. I am really thankful that I found this one and highly recommend it.

Purchased this extra long power cable for my guitar pedalboard I was building so I didn’t need to pack an extension chord along with it. You could use this for virtually anything that uses the same power connector. I found the cable to have a really nice feel and plenty flexible for easy coiling. The jacket is perhaps a bit thinner than some of the beefier ones I own…however for my use case its fine at this price point.

Read other reviews, its super good but I mean how are you to tell. It feels luxury and well built to last so that’s a good thing but other than that, it’s a bit short like others say
If you’re thinking about buying this for your gaming pc and worried it won’t perform well like i was it’s really the same just make sure it’s not bent and curved.
