I have the nonretina. The swap took me probably 5 minutes if that. However long it takes to unscrew 10 screws.

Replaced the Retina 2012 15" MBP battery fairly recently, as well as the SSD a long while ago (with an adapter) and took maybe 8 minutes, minus the screws, each time. The worry is the 3rd party batteries won't last long or will swell sooner than OEM parts.

If I get even half as much usage out of this third party battery as the OEM one it will last me another 5 years. Not a bad price for $80 imo.
