I'll be the voice of dissent here. I've heard nonstop praise for Anker online. Bought a couple keyboards and adapters from them and they all failed within a year. My wife got a mobile battery from them and that ended up dying in under a year as well. I'd be willing to write off one bad item, but I've had no good experiences and the pattern is clear to me.

It's mediocre trash. But in relative terms... the bar is so low now and the market flooded with randomly named fly-by-night operators that even mediocre trash stands out as exceptional just by existing long enough with a consistently spelled brand name to not be perceived as a fly-by-night operator.

Did you buy them off Amazon, or from a reputable reseller? I ask because Amazon mixes third party inventory together with first party inventory, so it's impossible to tell if you're getting a genuine product or a counterfeit.

They are on the way of ending commingling, thankfully.

Unless things have changed, Amazon is the official and only reseller for Anker products in Canada and probably many other countries.

I feel like anker combines mediocre quality control with pretty good customer service. A lot of the praise I hear from them includes something like "it died but they replaced it for free".

FWIW, after reading a few comments below you, I discovered that their usual warranty is 18-24 months. I've got a power bank that I had assumed was out of warranty (> 1 yr) but I'm still within 18 months so back to them it will go! You might find an equally pleasant surprise.
