If you trawl hard enough you’ll find that everything sold in every category has issues. There would be people complaining about free cash if they could... you know, how it wasn’t handed to them via red carpet and how the bills weren’t brand new and neatly folded...

Product review can be a fun read. But a lot of it should be taken with a grain of salt. As you said, people complain for the sake of complaining. They may have the most minor problem, which they will blow up into a world ending issue.

And most who don't have any issues wouldn't bother to write a review.

Can’t see how some of the prices are cheap.Don’t know about the regular type chargers,but pretty sure I paid a bit over $300 for a 20w DC- DC couple of years ago.
