| Product | Return Mentions | Est. Monthly Loss (assuming 1,000 units/month) | Top Reasons (Top 2) |
|---|---|---|---|
| B07DC5PPFV | 12 / 208 (5.77%) | $576 | Charging issues (slow charging, no charging, inconsistent charging) 5/14 (35.7%); Loose connection / cable falls out or disconnects 3/14 (21.4%) |
| B09N94MZG9 | 2 / 154 (1.3%) | $130 | Defective cable 1/2 (50%); Product does not charge device 1/2 (50%) |
Note: Actual return rate is typically higher than review mention rate (many users return without leaving reviews); the above is a conservative lower bound. The reason breakdown uses return mentions with a stated reason as its denominator, which differs from the return-mention count on the left (one mention may carry several reasons). Estimated monthly loss uses the unrounded return ratio.
