    • I like the pivot plugs, I have two of them now, and have never had any damage to any device plugged into them
    • The fact the outlets pivot is great so you can add the bulky power plugs and move them out of the way so they don’t block the other plugs
    • needed stupid set up for all the weird clunky plugs we have, this is excellent, and good price
    • and I love the rotating plugs.
    • Like having the movable plugs

    • Love the pivot plugs makes it so much easier when charging multiple devices
    • The pivoting plugs is what I bought this for and they work just as I expected them too
    • The loose plug kept coming loose within seconds
    • If a power strip does not have a Joule absorption rating, you might as well plug your electronics into the wall
    • love the pivot plugs.
    • Perfect - plugs swivel to accommodate larger plug transformers and shapes, has an anchor screw that replaces the plug faceplate screw to anchor the unit to the wall.
    • I got this for a home project where I needed to mount a surge protector under a cart, but there was little clearance so the plugs had to lay as flush as possible
    • Works as expected and I appreciate the pivot plugs.
    • You need 2 free plugs for this as it has a plastic plug bit to keep it in place.
    • It's perfect to accomodate a large variety of AC adapters and plugs.
    • Pivot plugs very useful in this electronic age and so many adapters.
    • and it makes plugging in multiple plug types a breeze
    • The rotating plugs are really nice, though, if they'd just used a better LED, this would be upgraded from a 3 star to a 5 star product.
    • Very handy, most plug ins I’ve seen on a power strip that you can actually use with bulky adapters
    • Like that the outer plugs are moveable for those bigger type plugs to go into and now crowd out the others
    • This is fine if you're plugging in simple plugs, but many electronic devices have a bulky power adapter/plug that takes up more than one outlet.
    • I could not find a surge protector for my PC, printer etc with enough plug ins
    • I love the flexible plugs and the various connections

    • Excellent for various plug-ins, fat, skinny, bulky and just plain normal.
    • The adjustable outlets are great when you have plugs that aren’t your standard type of plug
    • No more problems with large pack plugs that need to be plugged into the last slot or cover up other plugs (think old school nintendo plug packs, those large fat square plugs that were a nightmare for extension cords due to their size)
    • And you know some devices have bulky plugs or plugs that angle down blocking another outlet
    • I think this is just about the best plug strip I've ever owned
    • I like how you twist the plug if they bump each other
    • I needed the long cord and love all the plugs so worth the money
    • Enough plugs to handle all my gaming consoles, my television, receiver, cable box, and more.
    • My daisy chain LED lights plug into the timer, which is plugged in the muddle strip of outlets, all my fans, humidifier, water pump, air pump, inline fan/carbon filter are plugged into the side outlets, out of the way of the big timer block snd the light cable.
    • I feel very confident that my computer is safe when its plugged into this thing.
    • The rotating plugs are brilliant and they really work.
    • Great, versatile plug setup, just wish it had a right angle plug into the wall outlet, I had to buy an additional plug adapter for this issue.

    • Love the pivoting plugs
    • Space for 12 actual plugs -- Nice!
    • So I've never had a power surge, so I can't discuss that aspect of it - and whether it can protect properly during a surge, but I can confirm that this has an awesome number of outlets, and the pivot design helps big time with fitting awkward adapters or direct devices (that is, stuff like febreze airfreshers that plug directly into a socket and take up a large amount of space; or those bulky transformer adapters that enjoy taking up 2 or 3 slots... or those weird sideways plugs that are well suited for the classic vertical two slot plugs... but terrible for horizontal power strips - see this picture as an example:
    • Pivoting plugs made it easy to install oversize plugs.
    • You can actually use bulky plugs in all the sockets by pivoting the sockets.
    • Excellent product for handling many transformers as well as plugs
    • The rotating plugs are sturdy and prevent any plug from getting blocked by the cord from another device, and the wall mount keeps everything off the floor
    • It works great, The plug even has a place for a screw to hold the plug in place for longer usage without falling out of the socket
    • I like the hinge design on the outlets which allows you to fit many bulky plugs into a single power strip rather than having to use multiple strips
    • You're able to put a lot of large plugs together on this and not waste any plugs.
    • Another thing that I like about this outlet is that the plugs on the size are flexible so your cords won't break because of stretching or bending them.
    • The pivoting plugs make it possible to plug in all of the bulky plugs we have behind our entertainment center with room to spare.
    • This surge protector has enough plug ins for all of my needs.
    • Nothing works if plugged into that outlet
    • Since we're plugging in audio visual equipment, we needed the surge protection.
    • Pivoting plugs made it easy to install oversize plugs.
    • Love the pivoting outlets, really helps with odd size plugs.

    • It was difficult not to have a powerful plug with enough outlets
    • I loved the pivoting plug-ins, it really helps free up more spaces from those big, bulky box plugs.
    • I use the cable holder to route some cat5 cables and the adjustable plugs make room for all outlets to be used.
    • BUT the plugs sometimes just fall out and when I bend over (a feat!) to pick the device up, the twistable plug opening parts (my invented word, "pluglets") move out of position
    • A total of 7 useful plugs
    • The rotating plugs along the sides seem gimmicky, they don't seem to help
    • The cord should be about 2 feet longer and the plug should be a flat, right angle plug to enable it to mount closer to the wall behind our entertainment center.
    • I have one and you can plug in all those awkward plugs into one place
    • About a month and a half or so ago, lightning struck near our home, ruining those items plugged into this surge protector
    • Pivot plugs came in handy.
    • I love the pivoting plugs
    • The pivotal plugs are super hard to turn, also, the plastic housing was ''unclipped'' on arrival
    • I also love how the plugs are adjustable on the sides
    • and I really like having the adjustable pivoting plugs on the perimeter of the device as it will allow more things to be plugged in if needed
    • Let's face it, there are such strange huge plugs that have to be plugged in, this has options to move it in all directions so everything can plug in with ease.
    • The only issue I have is that the plug is so hard and sticks out from the wall too far and can not be installed behind a desk
    • Better than the others I've tried because I can pivot those stupid plugs away so I can sit the furniture flat against it.
    • It allows you to have more of the bulky plugs without blocking access to the other outlets.
    • Each plug is on a rotating pivot so oversize plug heads don't prevent adjacent plugs heads from being inserted.
    • I love the rotating plugs, they're fantastic for all of the different size and direction plugs that devices have.
    • It makes it easier to fit odd shaped plugs
    • Electrical pugs are NEVER the same, this is your best option to plug in all those weird size plugs for the TV and all the items that go along with it (Gateway box, soundbar, etc.)
    • and now I have 6 secure, usable plugs where only 2 existed previously
    • A standard plug would be nice for the love of god people till
    • Nothing is better than peace of mind when you are plugging in thousands of dollars worth of equipment and all for an extremely low price.
    • I have had experience with cheap plug extensions
    • My other 8 outlets where more like 4 after you put in oversize plugs
    • Worked as expected, however the plugs are too close together to be a 5 star product
    • Bought a new 55" tv, surround sound etc and I love the pivot plugs, THEY ARE AWESOME!!!
    • Love the pivoting plugs for those unwieldy power bricks.
    • The pivot-plugs are great and allow you to fit anything on it.

    • Love them, and the moveable plugs
    • Great that it has plugs that can be moved
    • The pivot plugs are a great, flexible space saver

    • It is very versatile and convenient to have all plugs in one place.
    • The adjustable plugs are also swell.
    • this makes it easy for her to use and the pivots are great so that the plugs don't get jerked out of the socket and give more room than the flat topped surge bars
    • Excellent design, A lot of my equipment is DC so the plugs are large and won't work on a standard power strip
    • I have successfully connected my TV, Blue Ray player, DVR, sound system (requires two power plugs), solar system monitor, modem and wireless router, and still have available plugs.
    • They work very well behind dressers and tight fitting spaces where you can turn the plugs to lay down flat as needed.
    • This surge protector has more than enough plug ins; and there are several that tilt up or down, which is great
    • Arrived with a faulty plug
    • I don’t use for WiFi but the plugs are awesome
    • I got a thinner one for other places, but this one is going to take cords from both above and below, so having the rotating plugs is useful
    • The rotating plugs are great, too.
    • The receptacles rotate so it's easy to plug in odd size plugs.
    • Besides that it seem like a good unit, I plugged in 4 plugs of varying sizes and they all work fine
    • Well worth the money, I use it with my computer table it can reall handle the power adaptors as well as regular plugs.
    • the center screw and a plastic post in the second plug ground hole doesn't cut it for the necessary support
    • Makes it so much nicer having larger plugs all in one power strip
    • The plugs in this unit pivot so all size plugs work with out locking others.
    • Moveable plugs are awesome.
    • love the protection and having enough plugs is great
    • The plug in swivels are very helpful.
    • Great design, especially for the bulky plugs.

    • Overall, very nice and all 6 plugs are usable (assuming that large plugs are angled away from other ones)
    • Love the pivoting plugs that make room for all you power blocks, but a surge protector that cannot protect itself cannot protect your gear.
    • All plugs can pivot a bit left and right
    • Haven't had to test the surge protection yet, but LOVE the pivoting plugs.
    • The pivot plugs are great.
    • If only it had a right-angle plug at the end, it'd be perfect!
    • Now I have tons of plugs, but they are all different shapes and sizes, which makes it even worse with a normal surge protector, because you sometimes need to sacrifice an outlet for an important plug
    • Also, it would be really cool to have a built in cable organizer / guide, and some way to keep the main plug short (maybe retractable) because it's messy when you don't need to have it far away from an outlet.
    • I choose this for the extra protection it offered, and was happily surprised to find the plugs are extremely easy to use - the plugs on each slide up and down, meaning I can plug in my stuff on each side and it doesn't stick up behind the cable box like the last one did.
    • This strip is a huge help, both because it has legit protection, and because of the awesome swivel plugs, which means I don't get stuck with empty outlets that are blocked by big plugs
    • Really enjoy the pivot plugs
    • i know my gear are safe when plugged into this
    • Holds plugs very well
    • Works really well since each of the plugs will rotate out to allow for bulky plugs
    • Instead of a large clunky block of plugs that may be difficult to hide, the rotating plugs and thin shape make it easy to plug in various devices and place behind the TV
    • Love the design and the flexible plugs.
    • The big clunky USB removable plugs come in so many stupid awkward sizes and shapes that this flexible spacing outlet is a great help
    • I also liked the pivoting outlets for ease of use, especially for the odd-sized plugs.
    • I was struggling before, because I plug in a lot of vintage video game equipment with bulky plugs
    • The pivoting side-outlets allow basically any arrangement of bulky transformer plugs, and the compact design allows this to fit *inside* my entertainment unit
    • each device has a different shaped plug and I needed the flexibility to move the plugs to make them fit in a small place.
    • Comfortable plugging in my most expensive electronics.
    • You buy an additional home office appliance, the plug is straight (easy), or sideways or has a bulky transformer of any shape and when you plug to one socket, some cover 2 or more outlets
