Cable was packaged in a simple sturdy box, cable felt durable and not cheap, it has some heft to it.
I bought this cable mainly because of the warranty, knowing that it will last a lifetime, its a no brainer.
I travel quite a lot so this cable goes where I go.
The nice thing about a long cable is the reach. Every hotel room is different, sometimes they have the power socket next to your bed, sometime they have it across the room. Having this long cable really put ease between charging.
The cons: It does tangle from time to time due to its length, I'm not even gonna complain on this one.
**1 YEAR AFTER:
There's some crack here and there, some noticeable weak spots, its starts getting more pliable and filthy. I cleaned them like once this year, with disinfectant and some good rubbing (you're going to hell).
But as you can see from the video, the steel braid cabling inside the rubber casing is not affected, its still solid.
Its about time to call/contact Anker to claim that warranty.
I was surprised, even though its in such a bad shape the cable have persistently performed; no hot spots, no losing charge, no malfunction. I'm quite impressed at this point.
**WARRANTY:
I emailed Anker customer support and they followed up right away.
No hassle and timely to deal with. I have my replacement cable in about a week.
Overall, I'm very happy with this company, and I wish they will never go away.
Keep it up Anker!
