    This is exactly what I wanted. (It’s even better - slimmer, easier to handle cord, than the Belkin in this design style.) Perfect fit for the lower shelf of my night table. To charge my phone, iPad, Bluetooth headset, and the like (plug my lamp into it as well, for convenience-sake not surge protection). The 8 outlets are perfectly spaced/placed. I briefly considered the model with the USB cord plugs directly into the unit, but for me, at this point, for this purpose the extra price didn’t seem worth-it. My USB charging adapters aren’t that bulky, and with this design they can be plugged side-by-side. I do like the convenience of that design, with the USB plugs, and will likely get it in the future, and move this one to either my home-office, or dressing area. So, this “basic” one wouldn’t be wasted. And meanwhile it’s a great budget option that sacrifices none of the design, style, or function. It’s attractive, useful, well conceived/designed and executed. For well under $20. Nice color too. Would be perfect anyplace. Though I’d think this more basic model isn’t intended for multiple multimedia devises all in one - looked like they had more suitable models for if you wanted to say plug in your TV, your game console, your streaming and/or cable - do they still call it that? - box/devise, your speakers with or without subwoofer, along with your modem and WiFi-router all into one. Someone, who works with high end electronics and/or an electrician/engineer correct me if I’m wrong. But I’d get a model - of this same device if there’s one of suitable capacity - which that’s meant to handle such a load for my entertainment center. I think another reviewer talked about joules and capacity, I think it was for this model. Or at least this manufacturer. Though I don’t see it being convenient for travel - not sure about that question there, maybe more convenient than some other styles; certainly not anywhere that’s not 120V, and I doubt that at this level it’s sufficient protection for anywhere with radically irregular electrical/voltage supply, not just the occasional spike, like say - Malawi Africa for a random example out of personal experience, for something like that you’d actually have to spend money and get a proper UPC, not to mention bulky-bulky, but that’s not relevant here, for this, just this isn’t something like that. This is for use with stable electrical and voltage supply, should give perfectly adequate protection for the occasional spikes and surges such as those following a power outage, within the design specification.

    I have always used APC power strips they offer great protection for electrical equiptment. You cannot go wrong.

    Outlets are accessible and 3 of them are spaced well apart from one another for bigger plugs. Weak charge on the USB ports is my only complaint.

    The design of this surge protector is top notch. Very easy to connect anything, and the flat plug is does not stick out far from the wall. The light is green which is more pleasant than red or blue, but I still covered it up with black tape. No need to have a room glowing at night. Overal, a great product.

    Just the right amount of protection for my AV center (TV, audio, AV components). Good price and sturdy.

    The differently oriented sockets make the power strip really useful for things with the 90 degree angled plugs.

    After endless research and not finding any option that had reassuring reviews I finally asked our family IT expert to help me pick a decent option. We are setting up a home office and needed a surge protector for the printer etc as we have seasonal power outages here. This one feels pretty sturdy as surge protectors go. It has a nice look to it. I like the option of having USB ports in it, so a charging cord can be plugged in and ready to go for a device. Weve only had it a month so I cant speak to longevity but so far so good!

    These are just about perfect! I like the flat plugs and the cable length. However, the green status lights are just too bright for my bedroom. I have these on each side of my bed to charge my phone and my laptop. I had to position the surge protectors so that half of them are under my bed because the status lights are just too bright!

    I bought this mainly to reheat my eva dry as if you use a normal surge protect you can only plug in ONE.. with this you can plug in 2 lays flat nicely, extra long cord.. Great product! Also good for when you need to plug in behind a bed, dresser etc.. the longer cord makes it really useful

    I used this for a PC.. Works so far as intended. I have not had an outage or power surge so I will update if I do. Seems like good quality.
