    This product is economical and simple to use. Overall I am happy with it and have been finding it a good value.

    I have used it for a couple months now to tether my PC laptop when working in coffee shops and restaurants. So far the lock mechanism has held up and proven mechanically sound. What I like is that the cable isn't too stiff so it curls up nicely and slides into the laptop bag for transport. Also, I don't have issues with a wild, stiff cable flexing all over the table while I am trying to work. The swivel on the end by the lock makes it so that the lock mates easily with the laptop, and the cable rests naturally on a table. This particular design allows for a good range of motion when mating the lock with the key-slot on the laptop. The cable is rubber coated but the coating doesn't stick to itself so the cable loops around furniture and thru it's own end-loop smoothly.

    While given the right tools and time anyone could probably cut a security cable, this is one more added deterrent to keep my laptop safe while I step away for a moment.

    The item came promptly and works just fine and the extra long cable is a must as far as I'm concerned as that lets me lock up my carry pack along with the laptop. I keep a number of electronic devices in it and knowing that the cable lock will slow some one down or maybe even deter them from taking my things if I have to step away for a second is a comefort. On the down side it could be a little thicker, but for the price its A.O.K. and I mean that sincerely. I even bumped up my rating because for the price it's well worth purchasing.

    This doesn't feel cheap at all. The packaging it came in was Apple quality - someone put a lot of thought into a box for a lock. On security, it does the trick in a very simple, easy to use way. Sure, anyone with a mini bolt cutter could cut right through this, but for deterrence value, it's perfect. The cable length is perfect for locking to a table leg or locking loop (my library has them built in to study carrels). The cable is flexible enough that you can move the computer easily without having to touch the cable, but stiff enough that it doesn't look like you could break it without tools.

    This lock does everything I asked of it. On two out of the three laptops I tried it fit very securely (the one it didn't attach to completely tight was about 8-10 years old so it was probably the laptop, the other two were 4 years old and just bought). The loop at the end is helpful for attaching and the cable itself is thin yet seems secure (If I am able to get a second lock ill test it out against cable cutters and report back here how long it protects). The hinged part at the lock is a little frailer than I expected and as someone noted before, does seem to be the weakest link. There are no instructions as also mentioned but everything is pretty straight forward, with the keys staying attached to the lock if it is unlocked. Only time will tell if it protects my laptop, but so far, it seems like high quality and what I'm putting my trust in as I begin college.

    I love these laptop locks. I purchase them for my supervisors and leads at work so that they can feel secure leaving their laptops in the office overnight. They're very sturdy, I've never had issues with the locking mechanisms like I've had with other manufacturers(the lock sometimes goes out of alignment with the key, making it impossible to remove the key after locking up). The presentation of this product is one of my favorite attributes. It doesn't just come in plastic, it comes in a nice little box with a silver/gray sleeve that has the manufacturer's name on it. I would definitely recommend this product!

    I bought this because of the good reviews, and because it was a key lock instead of a number lock. I've watched a few videos on some of the other brand locks that have a dial, and they are really easy to pick. So, I bought this lock instead. It was a dollar more than the equivalent number lock, so its not breaking the bank.

    The lock itself is standard. Cable thickness is average. Scissors won't cut it, but a determined thief will probably have a pair of dikes or other cutting style tool with them. Laptop locks are deterrents, not foolproof protection. If you are that worried about your laptop being stolen, just carry it with you. In a normal area where you won't be leaving it for days on end, I'd get this lock. Easy to use, easy deterrent, and makes me feel just that much safer leaving my laptop tethered to the desk.

    One note. The laptop cable has a loop on one end, so you need to loop it around something solid. A chair leg isn't a solid fixture, nor is a desk leg. So, pick wisely. 2 keys included.

    My work laptop got stollen my first week on the job. I move around from 100s of different sites and constantly work remotely. After my laptop got stollen and I got a replacement, I quickly looked for some added security measures and found this lock online. I bought it and started using it right away. The cord is pretty stiff but it seems super secure. My coworkers call me “bike lock” and I carry around keys for my laptop but jokes on them because with this lock my portable electronic computer isn’t going anywhere and I can spend my time doing better things than filling out police reports.
