This was a gift for my Mother, and she hasn't mentioned any problems with the charger. She mainly plays a lot of games that she downloads. I think she usually needs to charge it at the end of each day if she's used it a lot. Hope this helps.

Not sure how much this is going to help but it holds a charge really well and it doesn't take very long to recharge. Our 2 1/2 yr old grandson uses it constantly and leaves it sitting around with the power on and we have had no problems.

It charges quickly. I had bought a Google tablet back in December and my husband was playing the climb hill racer game and the screen all of a sudden cracked and we can not use it anymore. We started looking and other tablets and saw this one. When we got it and opened it my husband liked that is was more durable and that the screen was thicker. This is such a good product.

The charger was ok as far as i know. My daughter only had this tablet for about 4-5 days tho before it broke. Didn't have any problems with the charger, just the screen.

Only had mine 3 days, after first use it locked up & I could not get to open. Called tech support, it was a joke, Amazon took it back & gave me credit.

Not like the other comments, I've had this product for over 3 years and no problems with charging any usb item. To include, Android phones (HTC,Samsung and LG), Iphone, Ipad, Galaxy Tab 2 & 3. Plastic cover is not hard and could break with abuse, mine no problem yet. Have used in car, electrical outlet and with batteries during a power outage.

@Dorothy from my experience, this is a very good tablet to get. It's hard to find a tablet with these specs and this price point. The only thing I would warn you about is the charger. It can break easily but it is not cheap to replace(here's a link for a replacement if needed: http://www.amazon.com/2000mah-Adapter-Charger-Android-eReader/dp/B00AX3G36Y/ref=pd_cp_pc_0).

i think the warranty from amazon which is the usual 30 days return policy or if you pay with pay pal is 90 days is good enough. the product has no moving parts to wear out and totally enclosed and design for indoor use which in my opinion if the first 30 days of used passed without a problem the product should last at least a year. i usually misplaced mine or loose it before it fails. you know that the number one cause of failing is corrosion from moist environment. laptop becomes obsolete after 2 years and the charger outlast the laptop. good luck

Dear Demetre,I am the kind of guy who keeps useful extra items. The darn hub didn't work when it came. I read someone's comment that the power adapter was too small, so I looked in my stash of power packs [some people call them "Wall Warts!"] and found one rated 5V 1Amp. Since then, it has worked, but it's junky - the sockets do not fit smoothly. I notice that everyone else is using 3 - 5 Amps. The item they sent to me was tiny and it was much weaker than my 1 Amp unit.

I have not had that issue. I bought a new one a couple of weeks ago off of Amazon for $20.00 that came with the charger new. I only needed the charger. I did not see on the manufacturers website the ability to purchase just the charger for this model.

I almost never use the power adapter. I hook it up to my PC every night to download the latest podcasts that I follow --- the next morning I disconnect it from the PC and it is fully charged. I have been doing it that same way for years.

My experience is get the least expensive one. They do about the same thing-I have had multiple versions of the original, but all my chargers fit it. Otherwise I would just get a new one.

We have have had bad luck with anything but an actually nook charger. We have tried many different after market ones and nine have been reliable.

I bought 2 and immediately had a problem with one of them (which I returned). I do notice it doesn't hold a charge very long these days. I've had mine about 6 months but only use it on occasion. Good luck :)

You probably need a new board if the pin inside the charger is not loose. The problem I found with the board is that the connector breaks where it is soldierd to the power board and to have to apply pressure till it can no longer make a connection.

Hasn't been a problem for me but the more I read, the more I see owners having 'issues' with power-related matters (not fully charging, etc.). The battery on the unit itself seems to perform well under stated times and (for me) is slow to recharge. Good luck with it.

When I was still using mine I couldn't get a replacement charger for it. I have no idea how to get a replacement screen or even how to contact this company. (I got a kindle, much happier now)

No problems so far; mine are 7 mos old. I noticed that Amazon sells a replacement charger, which I don't recall having seen being sold for other units. Maybe these units have short lived chargers. Only $10 with free shipping. Considering the cost of the units compared to other brands, it is still a bargain.WALL CHARGER WITH USB DUAL CHARGING CABLE FOR ALL MODELS OF AETERTEK DOG TRAINING SYSTEMS/FENCE SYSTEM,GROOVYPETS GP001B,GP002B,MAGIC E COLLAR MEC-1

Good morning. I own this portable charger and love it. We live at 7400 ft in the Sierra Nevada. This charger is my second device and in answer to yourquestion, it will hold a solid charge for about two months. I check mine if weather is coming and the recharge is vey rapid. I have a special needs child and light is important when the power is down. It is a blessing to have for outsoor or indoor use. Hope this helps. Mrs Wetterer

I'm using this with rechargeable batteries since around 5 months without any issues. The ones I'm using are from Eneloop (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009LU9150/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), wonderful capacity; charger I'm using is also from Eneloop only (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0058GZWXQ/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
