Modern history unearthed as a boy becomes an innocent victim of corruption in Bolivia's crime world, where the power of family is both a prison and a means of survival. It's 1999 in Bolivia and Francisco's life consists of school, soccer, and trying to find space for himself in his family's cramped yet boisterous home. But when his father is arrested on false charges and sent to prison by a corrupt system that targets the uneducated, the poor, and the indigenous majority, Francisco and his sister are left with no choice: They must move into prison with their father. There, they find a world unlike anything they've ever known, where everything--a door, a mattress, protection from other inmates--has its price. Prison life is dirty, dire, and dehumanizing. With their lives upended, Francisco faces an impossible decision: Break up the family and take his sister to their grandparents in the Andean highlands, fleeing the city and the future within his grasp, or remain together in the increasingly dangerous prison. Pulled between two undesirable options, Francisco must confront everything he once believed about the world and his place within it. In this heart-wrenching novel, Melanie Crowder sheds light on a little-known era of modern South American history--where injustice still looms large--and proves that hope can be found, even in the most desperate places. Perfect for fans of Ruta Sepetys, Matt de la Pena, and Jacqueline Woodson.

Works great, but included cable is too short
Style: 15W Charger
The cable included is only about 3 feet long and has a USB-a plug. Teslas now have only USB-c outlets, so the cable is useless anyway. If the cable were 6’ long and type USB-c, it could be tucked under the molding and hidden. I had to get another cable to complete the installation. I like this mount/charger because it is nondestructive - it doesn’t use tape or glue to install. The magnet is strong and it charges my phone quickly.

Decent but magnet isn’t strong enough
Style: 15W Charger
Unit appears well made and I feel like it minimizes any potential damage to the screen. For me, magnet just wasn’t strong enough and I wasn’t a fan of the cable - would be nice if product had clips for cable management or something to give it a cleaner install. If it wasn’t for the magnet issue, I probably would have kept. Returned.

Really a nice product!
Style: 15W Charger, Style: 15W Charger
I wanted a nice magsafe charge/holder for my phone and I tried this one and so far, it's great.
Pros:
- It has a really nice-looking LED behind the magsafe holder which glows nicely, as you see in the pic.
- The plastic feels good, strong and (hopefully) not plastic that degrades and becomes brittle.
- The rubber bumpers which hold it in place under the mount against your display seem well-placed.
- It's fully adjustable between positions wherever you wish to mount it.
- You can mount your phone either above or to the side of the display on any corner which provides nice flexibility.
- I found it best on the upper right because on the left, the steering wheel obscures the phone and the two bottom corners aren't useful to me.
- The little knobs work well to hold it in place and tighten nicely.
Cons:
- The only problem is how the design has the cable visible and sticking out when it could have easily been designed to integrate into the little arm so it's hidden. As it is, the ugly, out of place and avoidable USB-C cable is visible which I don't like.
- You can rotate the holder to make the USB-C cable appear in front of the arm holder so it's less visible but it should have been avoided with a simple design modification and integrated USB cable for a more streamlined appearance.
In any case, this is a nice addition to my Model 3 Performance to hold my phone while I drive, out of the way while still charging.
Try one.

Reliable, Fast, and Worth Owning More Than One

Here’s a polished, strong 5-star Amazon review you can use (feel free to tweak tone or length):

Title: Reliable, Fast, and Worth Owning More Than One
I’ve used a lot of magnetic wireless chargers over the years, and these are easily among my favorites. I actually own several already, and this 2-pack just reinforces why I keep coming back to them.
First, the magnetic connection is strong and consistent. It snaps into place cleanly and stays aligned, which is critical for maintaining efficient charging—no waking up to a half-charged phone because it shifted overnight. That alone separates these from cheaper alternatives.
Charging speed is solid and dependable. While I wouldn’t expect wired-level speeds from any wireless charger, these perform exactly as advertised and more importantly, they’re consistent. No overheating issues, no random drop-offs—just reliable performance day after day.
The build quality also stands out. The cables feel durable without being stiff, and the charging pads themselves have a clean, minimal design that works well on a nightstand, desk, or even while traveling. Having a 2-pack is especially convenient—I keep one by my bed and one at my workspace, which has made my setup much more seamless.
If I had to point out anything, it’s that like all magnetic chargers, performance is best with a compatible case or no case at all—but that’s standard across the category, not a knock on this product.
Overall, if you’re looking for a dependable, well-built magnetic wireless charger that just works every time, this is an easy recommendation. The fact that I continue to buy more says everything.

Not a super fast charger but convenient.
Color: Black, Set name: 2 Pack
Works well with induction-compatible iPhones. It's great with a iPhone 14 Pro. It will also charge a 16e, although the 16e is not equipped with MagSafe--that's just the magnet that holds the charger on. The 16e must be placed on top of the charger and carefully positioned for it to work.
In my tests the charger drew about 1.7A @ 9V, for a total of about 10W. How much of this is absorbed by the phone is unknown, but probably most of it. this is not a super fast charge, but fine if you're leaving it for the night. The phone and charger do get warm, so some power is wasted. The heat is not a problem, though, since the phone gets warm when plugged in via the Lightning port, too.
Some reviewers have mentioned tha the charger is rounded which means you can't leave the phone+charger on a surface. There is a flat spot on the charger, and I have no problem leaving the phone charge overnight.
I find the cable long enough to reach the charger plugged into the wall near the floor, but that depends on your situation. Of course, if it's not long enough, there's not much you can do but move things around!
