Pros & Cons
Pros
Nail polish remover to remove the adhesive. Easiest way to get the battery out is to pry the cell up with a old debit card.
Installation is a bit involved, but that reflects on apple's design (gluing in the battery), and not on the replacement battery. This battery is perfect to make your retina macbook pro a laptop instead of a glorified desktop. Recommended for 2015 macb... Read More
I recommend if your macbook is aging or has a bulging battery pack. Make sure old battery is completely drained and has sat drained over night for safety. Ended up returning ifixit battery and ordering another one of this battery.
Cons
Seemed to work great until about the 13 month mark. Has quickly degraded since then. Motherboard fried by this cheap battery. Battery dies very suddenly.

Within about 68 months the macbook would not hold a charge and was reporting that there was no battery installed
Price
Great purchase for fair price work very well
This battery is an affordable solution to this problem
Much cheaper than having apple do it
Value more economical then new laptop and cheaper then having to pay someone
Shipping
Received fast from amazon easy to install about 30 min adhesive was a little tough to dislodge from old battery but not real bad
The battery was exactly as advertised and arrived in 2 days
I received it within a few days and installed it
I sent a note to the seller and a new battery was shipped out the same day
Packaging/appearance
It was cost effective solid construction great packaging and at this point i would buy from this company again without hesitation
Competitiveness
One thing to note though is that the battery life of this one is not as good as the original apple battery
Good customer service and the price is better than ifixit battery
