    The product, in the report: asus transformer book fliptp300L battery charger

    I have a Asus Transformer Book Flip tp300L computer. I have had this computer for about 3 months and one of the plug prongs broke of in the plug outlet .You could see it was just a small piece of plastic that was holding it in the plug and is very easy to break,this is dangerous to have a metal prong coming out of a live outlet.

    The product, in the report: SMALL BLACK BOX WITH TWO TYNES ON ONE SIDE AND ELECTRIC CORD COMING OUT THE OTHER SIDE. CHARGER/POWER TRANSFORMER TO ASUS LAPTOP COMPUTER.

    ASUS computer power cord - the tyne on the convertor/transformer plugs directly into the wall outlet. It breaks off very easily - poor design and poor construction. Electrical hazard if someone tries to remove the tyne from the wall after it breaks off. Numerous complaints on blogs and forums.

    The product, in the report: Black home charger for ASUS EEE tablet

    Purchased an ASUS EEE tablet and the power supply melted. Researched the web and found a lot of other people complaining about the same issue and all had the same complaint about ASUS which is they refuse to do anything about it. This power supply should be recalled before it burns someones house down.
