RUBAN Notebook Lock and Security Cable (PC/Laptop) Two Keys 6.6 Foot (Black)

Excellent product and easy to use. Thank you for sending the replacement keys

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.

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.

I only got the product about a week ago. Finally got to use it the other day. I used it to secure a cash box that had a cable lock opening on the back, to attach the box to a table at a festival event and it worked wonderfully. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because of the "final notice" email that I was just sent asking for a review... It seemed somewhat rude to be giving a "final notice" first off (that terminology has negative connotation... But, I thought you should give a customer a chance to use the product for a while before saying "final notice"... Please change that rude wording. But the product itself was great!!! Packaged nicely... Like the fact that it doesn't curl up on itself, and like the Velcro cable wrap. It worked perfectly.

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.

I like the lock but it does not fit my brand new 2018 Dell XPS 15 laptop. I wish they had a list of what laptops if fit and what laptops it does not fit instead of just a blanket statement that it fits "most laptops". It obviously does not and now I have to go to the hassle of sending it back and trying different model, which is a shame because it is a good lock.

I got this 6 foot security cable to keep my laptop from walking away while I was keeping it at a non-profit. I'm not worried about theft... just want to make sure nobody "borrows" it and forgets to put it back. These cables will keep such a thing from happening, but they are not a fool proof theft protection. None of them are. with a screwdriver and enough force, anybody can break them free. The purpose is to deter the casual thief or "borrower", and this cable does the trick for a very economical price. Why pay more for a super thick expensive cable when the weakest link is that little tab that goes into the computer. This completely met my expectations. Thank you!
