traditional power strips that lay on the floor look particularly ugly if you have glass tables or minimalist decor.

(as is the case with some others)USB ports seem to charge phones as quickly as the stock charger for me (every device is different, however)Looks cleaner than a power strip (my subjective opinion)Cons

Now I can finally get all of my computer equipment and electronics plugged into the wall, and behind my desk instead of using the bulky power strip that sits on the floor, This power strip uses one outlet and has a center screw for added stability

Because my power company (PGE) delivers a LOT of unexpected power outages, I need surge protectors on all household outlets that service expensive-to-replace electronic equipment (e.g., microwave oven, coffeepot, TV, toaster).This wall mount surge protector works well in my kitchen, where I have several small appliances that I like to leave plugged in.

Not to mention the power surges and outages that plague our neighborhood

The USB plugs lets them charge their devices as well as powering other things like a small fan.

Theis power strip provides safe and secure power and it is very convenient and not too big

I use them where I don’t want an ugly power strip on the floor
