- Is the item durable?
1784128
I'm not sure I can answer that question properly, but I will give it a try. Although it is thinner than other cables I have used, when I fished it up the wall to the TV port, I was not at all hesitant to pull on the cord when it snagged in the wall. It pulled through without a problem. Additionally, it felt really well built and solid .

Yes. It's a thin but durable design. I travel with it, so it's been plugged & unplugged & coiled quite a bit... No problems - and if I do have some down the road, I'd probably replace it with the same for its size & weight.

Hi George. The first cable I purchased was bad. The second works well and feels pretty good. Most Monoprice cables have a high failure rate (they are not all tested like everyone claims) and my 2nd one works great. The cable is tiny like the white Apple USB cables. I use mine to connect to my laptop and TV and have been happy with it. It does coil a little up on itself but most long cables do that. Hope this helps.Kurt

I purchased this same 15 foot cable from Monoprice about 8 months ago to connect a Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet to my TV's HDMI port. It is slim enough to be kept in a 2" Aunt Wanda cable organizer tube. I've unrolled, plugged it in and out & rolled it back up numerous times a week and it still works great. Amazing picture, slim profile , and typical Monoprice excellence. I would recommend it : I'm buying another as a gift.

I carry this cable in my backpack and have used it (plugged in) about 10 times with no issues so far. I'm driving it through my ipad and it works well. However due to the thinness I'm being very careful with plugging it in by the connector and not doing the usual yank on the cord to pull it out. I also try to not bend it too much.

I haven't had any issues with them. I have used them for the past three months. They appear to be well made, there light weight and they don't place any stress on the connections.Any excess cable rolls up neatly and is easily tucked away. I am in the process of replacing all my cables with the monoprice ultra slim hdmi cables. I don't notice any difference in the quality or performance of these cables. Don't hesitate to buy these.

If you're asking whether it withstands frequent and repeated plugging and unplugging, I can't offer direct experience, since I've left mine plugged in for the several months I've owned it. But I was pleasantly surprised by the material quality, if that helps. It seems to be similarly constructed to, and equally durable with, the sync cables for iPhones, for instance--which in my case do get fairly heavy manipulation. The flexibility allowed me to do a long run with bends without straining the cable. And I'm extremely happy with both the audio and video performance (from an Oppo BDP-105 to a recent 40" Samsung DTV).

Its very durable. The material is very thick and hard plastic, and even the buttons are just responsive enough. My 3 rough boys, all under 5, have 'read' this And fooled around with it many a time, and still it is working like new. We have had it for a few months now and i expect it'l be around for at least a few months longer.

It seems to be durable. I bought it for my 6 yr old son, he's not torn it up. However, it would not be durable enough to keep important monies or papers in to keep safe. I believe the lock could be easily picked.

I've owned one for 6 months and it seems to hold up very well. My grandson has dropped it on a tile floor a couple of times and aside from a few minor dents, it still works fine.

I've had this for a while now and haven't had any trouble with it starting to tear or break apart. It's been a little smashed because it's in the back with my kids, but it still maintains its shape as it did when it was new. I'd call that pretty durable; we've had no issues with it.

I just bought it last December, but its a durable material, I am sure it can last several years with out abuse. I make sure my kids dont move it from its place or play it with out the appropiate sticks

It seems to be. We've had ours over a year and it we still love it! It's been over a couple of times too and it's still holding up.

Yes, its durable. I through my phone in my purse a lot and it has held up. It doesn't offer much protection as a OutterBox would, but I don't think it was designed to. It's very pretty.

It is extremely durable. It is well built, I've dropped it off a table and had it slammed in a trunk and the only scar to come out of it has been my six year old breaking off the flimsy antenna that manufacturers put on most devices requiring a radio signal, but the radio still works flawlessly. In conclusion, yes it will withstand being knocked over as well as any other unforseen accidents.

It is durable. It is Ok for fooling around but it hard to hold still for serious observation.

No, this is very durable. I've moved it around, plugged/unplugged it multiple times, and it works perfectly (after almost a year).

Yes, very sturdy and durable. I've been using this daily for the past 3 years and haven't had any issues.

Well... we've never actually dropped one, but I can attest that the product is very durable. We've owned one for years, and given a couple as gifts, and never a problem.

It is pretty durable, and will probably last you years. It isn't disposable, it's reusable.

it's quite durable. I carry mine around and use it in cosplay (being a 1:1 scale prop replica as well) and I have dropped it a few times. it's fallen from my pocket and such. and so far I have had a few problems... the casing seems unscratched (by casing I mean the remote itself) although the software seems a bit glitchy (light and sound doesn't turn off after release of button, light doesn't turn on, light and sound have a long delay) after. all in all it still works though. so it will survive a fall out of a shirt pocket, and being shaken (though that's when the glitching starts)

No. I used mine every day for 3 weeks and it is still like new. Very durable.
