Doesn’t work for my laptop

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a couple weeks ago and I’m sad to say it doesn’t work on my laptop! Has many different adapters for different laptops so I’m sure it would be useful for more current laptops, mine is just old!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This charger by Targus is amazing! I can charge my laptop and phone or tablet at the same time with this. It comes with different adapter tips for the laptop and a compatibility hotline number to boot! Charges extremely fast and saves so much time by keeping items together to charge. Great find!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This customer charger is super fast. After an hour it was 3/4 off the way charged. Perfect fit for my HP Laptop. I love how the charger has a Velcro strap for the cord. It’s perfect to stow away for future use. Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop charger came just in time for a business trip. I have to say I was impressed on the amount of time this charger kept my laptop going. It’s also the perfect size to carry around and lightweight as well.
I bought this because all the discriptions said it was compatible with my HP Privillion 15 b124. Sadly it was not so I had to buy from somewhere else.

It will NOT fit my ACER netbook. One of the replacement connectors provided connects the computer to power but only if I hold it in just the right way, I cannot let go or walk away from the charger to let it charge. The connection to the adaptable connector thing is very loose as well. Very disappointed and will be returning it ASAP.
Cons: does not live up to expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used this on a HP and a Dell and it has been a life saver. In both cases, the original chargers' cords had been pulled/damaged (in normal use) near the laptop end and this replacement worked wonderfully. Time will tell if its design works better than OEM in preventing damage to cord. Don't know what I would have done without it because the laptops were not old enough to be junked and held important data. I bought this charger on a trip to U.S.; could not find it in India. Hope they make it available here.
I believe the adapter plug for my Toshiba laptop melted during normal usage and no longer is possible to easily remove for the power port. If this happens during normal usage, then this is not a properly tested product. I would not recommend this to anyone. I was sold on the USB port, but the short life span of the laptop adapter has turned me bitter.
