Reviews around advertise (4.65 of 5)

  • It seems to work as advertised and it’s very nice having the four extra plugs on all the time.good
  • n’t have to disturb my set timers.
  • Other than that, it works as advertised, and I recommend.

Reviews around outlet (4.17 of 5)

  • I use it for Christmas lights, so I would like all outlets to be on timer
  • Great outlet extension, timer worked great, a little noisy, but not bad
  • The outlets still worked but the timer portion was broken
  • Although the initial outlet caused much frustration, the replacement seems to work
  • The outlets work, and the knobs for the timer are small and not easy to use if you have large fat fingers.

Reviews around item (3.86 of 5)

  • Item has no problem with power but the timer doesn’t work
  • And beware, any other brand selling the same item is coming from the SAME FACTORY in China
  • This is a great item for covering many small Christmas tree with mini lights, with a timer that works very well.
  • They are all operating critical items in the same large Chameleon room, and have performed wonderfully.
  • This item is great because you can use the timer on one side (my chickens love that) and the other side always has ready power for shop vacs, etc.

Reviews around light (3.55 of 5)

  • I spent 10 mins trying to figure out why the light wouldn't go out and cussing at it
  • However, the lights are so bright & you can hear a sizzle while plugged in
  • Used it with four different bright lights to grow my seedlings.
  • Easy to program, works great turning lights on and off for my bearded dragons and chameleons, quiet
  • This extension system has 4 to the timer and 4 regular sockets which is perfect for all my LED lights that I have all year round

Reviews around time (3.18 of 5)

  • After over a year, the timer portion stopped keeping correct time but the company sent me a replacement right away.
  • The minutes get off over time, but it's really easy to change to the correct time.
  • It was easy to figure out how to set the timer and the mechanism works well, I just have to correct the current time occasionally, there's a little bit of "drift" there, but nothing major.
  • The timer side does not work at all, we have programmed it multiple times and it has failed each time
  • The timer works perfect, it hasn't lost time (slowed down) and seems to be heavy duty with everything I have plugged into it.

Reviews around day (2.00 of 5)

  • It's pretty sad when something like this can cause you harm and ruin a good day
  • By providing an competitively priced product, with the value added option of FREE NEXT DAY AIR, they were able to provide an unbeatable option to the 45 minute drive to my local grow store in sub-arctic temps & several inches of snow
  • This worked great at first but the timer has slowed down by a few hours every day :/
  • and it was working perfectly since then, day in and out.
  • Unfortunately, the timer made it two days before it started to slow and couldn't keep up with the time.

Reviews around sound (1.65 of 5)

  • I only noticed the sound once the room was pitch quiet, and I wouldn't really categorize the sound as annoying,
  • The only problem is that it has developed an annoying vibration/rattling sound that never stops, and it really gets on my nerves.
  • The timer has a constant humming/ticking sound that is really annoying.
  • The only downside for this product is that it does produce an audible sound due to the mechanical timer
  • It does make a sound like a running filter, but it is not any reason to skip on purchasing this.

Reviews around noise (1.49 of 5)

  • We bought it and used it for the first week and after the first week it started making a very loud noise
  • The noise is very minimal, its like a small, faint ticking noise, but since i sleep with a fan on, i can't hear anything
  • it does what it says but makes a very loud clicking noise that is annoying
  • out of the box, straight forward setup - looks good - plenty of outlets - price is right - I'm using 2 of these to cycle lights in a reptile room - 19 days in, one of the units developed a grinding/rattling noise (loud enough to hear it in the next room) - could temporarily stop the noise by giving it a little shake but the noise would return - the device is still working properly - not hot or doing anything that would concern me about a fire - my guess would be the timer mechanism is already failing - the second unit is still working fineUPDATE: 11/6/18 not even a month and both units are making a grinding noise
  • Within a week this started making a very loud clicking noise that could be heard everywhere in the house

Reviews around grind (1.00 of 5)

  • This outlet works great, but I've only had it for less than a year and like so many reviewers have mentioned, it's started to make a loud grinding and clicking noise
  • This was great at first, but after a couple of months it has started to make an obnoxious grinding sound (the timer) and it's loud enough to interfere with my sleep so I can no longer use it.
  • As other reviewers have pointed out after a while something wears down and this starts to make a weird grinding noise
  • Very annoying, i can hear it while i am watching movies, its an annoying grinding sound.
  • Horrible grinding sound all the time, it's not fun to sleep next to, please make this right

Reviews around bite (1.00 of 5)

  • It is a bit bulkier and pricier than a standard outlet strip, but it is ideal for my purposes and works great.
  • The first one I got kind of fell apart on me a little bit
  • The only caveat with this unit is that the pins that you must push up or down in order to establish time off and on are very small, and may be a bit harder to deal with if you don't have good fingernails as I do
  • the next cycle!This is a bit wider and bulkier than similar models
  • My only negative is that the black notches on the outside of the timer that control the on/off timing are a bit difficult to see and are tight against the outside circle.
