Reviews around price (4.68 of 5)

  • Hard to find a surge protector with a long cord - especially at a reasonable price
  • but its a great item and the price wasn't too bad considering others I looked at.
  • I spent hours searching for the perfect surge protector that not only had the right length, but also the right amount of outlets for the best price
  • I'd say for a sale price it might be worth it, or if you're really looking for a longer cord surge protector it might be worth it (although I have several longer-cord protectors that didn't cost near this much), but I've purchased much better protectors at even better prices when they go on sale.
  • Why are you reading the reviews?If the price is right, pull the trigger

Reviews around surge (4.53 of 5)

  • Wish this one had some USB outlets, still a great surge protector regardless.
  • I needed a good surge protector with a long cord to use in the kitchen with coffee pots, etc.
  • That's why this gets 3-4 stars instead of 5.I originally wanted to buy the Quirky Pivot flexible surge protector
  • The authentic K62634 surge protector of Kensington has a clamping voltage (UL 1449) rating of 330V. The items I received from Amazon
  • It's a cheap and durable surge protector, and if you select a 15 foot cable, it's a fantastic extension cord as well.

Reviews around item (4.41 of 5)

  • but then suddenly those items didnt work on anything else after being plugged into it
  • I believe that my nicer items should be protected by a quality surge protector
  • I needed a surge protector with a long cord for my TV in my basement, as well as an exercise bike and a few other electronic items.
  • This item is wonderful with the length of the cord and so many outlets.
  • but its a great item and the price wasn't too bad considering others I looked at.

Reviews around quality (4.38 of 5)

  • Needed it for safety - great quality and length was perfect
  • This is a great buy and quality and performance of the product is top notch
  • Still for my application, a long cord is a plus (since I needed at least a 12ft cord).Cons:----------Really bad build quality; again, just super cheap plastic, and the reset button is really wobbly, barely feels like it's held on
  • But with how poor the build quality is on this (and this was ordered from Amazon directly, not 3rd party), and the fact that they didn't even throw in nicer features like a swivel socket for how pricey this retails for, I can't give this a fantastic rating (but will still give it an OK rating as it does in fact work, but that alone doesn't deserve 5 stars)
  • It has a very durable design and is made of top quality materials.

Reviews around length (4.28 of 5)

  • I love the length of the cord as I can use this surge protector almost anywhere in the house
  • The cord is perfect length for reaching longer distance.
  • Performs as expected and the 15' length solved my problem.
  • Very practical, the extra length of the cord makes this extra useful around the home and office.
  • This surge protector is high quality and a good length.

Reviews around expect (4.21 of 5)

  • Tired of that Fat Ass A/C adapter that disables every socket to its side
  • works perfectly as expected, the 90 degree orientation on the last plug is a nice touch
  • The length of the chord is the main reason l purchased, and works exactly as expected and described.

Reviews around strip (4.12 of 5)

  • It also gives a bit of decoration with the multiple colors, and doesn't just look like an ugly power strip on the desktop
  • I've bought inexpensive power strips before and regretted
  • A perfectly decent 6-outlet power strip, but the listing photos show that it has a 90-degree (right angle) plug, which is necessary when using in location with minimal space available
  • This table top power strip was perfect for our conference room and the long cord was a plus.
  • This (albeit pricey) power strip fits the bill

Reviews around outlet (4.07 of 5)

  • Which was a SUPER headache because my husband and I both work from home and need reliable internet connection to do our jobs!And on top of that, those outlet multipliers did not solve the issue of poor outlet placement
  • long cord on here is what I needed to get power across the room when no outlets were available.
  • I mostly liked the length of this outlet, in fit my needs just right because my son’s apartment didn’t have enough wall outlets
  • Purchased this for work, because the strip they provided didn't have enough outlets, and my sister (professional techie) recommended this brand.
  • Great for my unusual outlet placement....

Reviews around design (4.01 of 5)

  • Including color-coded receptacles, a 16-foot cord, and a smart, circular design
  • It has a very durable design and is made of top quality materials.
  • This surge protector design works wonderfully with my classic HP 110+ laptop computer, ThinkJet printer and HP 9114B disk drive.
  • Good design, the long cord lets me keep this unit on my table so no cables dragging around in a clump on the floor.
  • A descent unit with a stupid design flaw on the mounting holes on the back

Reviews around protector (3.93 of 5)

  • I have several surge protectors from all sorts of brands, and as such I'm somewhat disappointed with what should have been a nicer protector feeling and looking so cheap
  • I'd say for a sale price it might be worth it, or if you're really looking for a longer cord surge protector it might be worth it (although I have several longer-cord protectors that didn't cost near this much), but I've purchased much better protectors at even better prices when they go on sale.
  • The current protection is good, the design is clever, and it feels much sturdier than my cheap-o power strips
  • I have no problems with cheap protectors not having a rotating outlet, but on something that costs almost $40 it really should have included it
  • Wish this one had some USB outlets, still a great surge protector regardless.

Reviews around power (3.58 of 5)

  • Which is fine to avoid accidental power off, but if you use it to turn everything off at once, is kind of a pain.
  • It also gives a bit of decoration with the multiple colors, and doesn't just look like an ugly power strip on the desktop
  • The current protection is good, the design is clever, and it feels much sturdier than my cheap-o power strips
  • I've had it for a few weeks and the only complaint I have so far is that it doesn't work well with right angle power adapters
  • The current protection is good, the design is clever, and it feels much sturdier than my cheap-o power strips

Reviews around color (3.57 of 5)

  • The current protection is good, the design is clever, and it feels much sturdier than my cheap-o power strips
  • because not only is it discreet in its slim design but also because it works fantastically, the colors help me remember what is plugged into what, and the cord length (though excessive for small spaces) is perfect for a larger space where the outlet may not be near the electronics
  • This cord is durable, no tangles, great length, color, and exactly what I'm looking for in an extension cord
  • I'm weird, I really like the colors - they could be used for color coordination if someone wanted to be really organized or something
  • because not only is it discreet in its slim design but also because it works fantastically, the colors help me remember what is plugged into what, and the cord length (though excessive for small spaces) is perfect for a larger space where the outlet may not be near the electronics
