Nice and rugged, and the green LED indicates when protection is working.
It does work great with 110 volts, everything charges well and the plugs work like they should.
It may well work great in the US, but there are lots of alternatives out there, and the "Belkin Mini Surge Protector Dual USB Charger" has always been rock solid in my experience when using 220 V.
The two USB ports work great for not having to carry around additional power adapters

My hands are not large by any means and this design poses a safety issue with me.
so I don't know if the design is defective or not.
This is a far better design for travel as you cannot predict if you are going to have enough space to plug in a huge monstrosity directly onto the outlet.
I like the design of the product but either my cables are not making the correct contact or something else is going on
the cable wraps around the unit, that is the best design ever.

Been looking all over for a small power strip for travel that will take care of my recharge needs while traveling, this one does it without taking up all the room in my bag that a standard power stip/surge protector does. great product.
I would recommend the product to everyone that is looking for a compact surge protector to use while traveling.
This product is a major disappointment, if not an outright misrepresentation.
Good product, great for traveling and handy to have in the backpack to share a single outlet when needed in a busy airport or crowded meeting room.
I wanted to like the Tripp Lite TRAVELER3USB because Tripp Lite makes great products

I'm not sure if the two sockets are paralleled, and thus want different voltages or current levels than the unit van provide, if the unit is just current limited, or what.
I had another, slimmer unit from another company, but it died
I would recommend this unit from monoprice which charges my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 simultaneously through USB and costs about half ).
This is a USB power supply and surge protector all in one, a nice compact unit, and nicely priced for what you get.
It's a great little unit, but I have to take it from five stars to three because an item of this caliber should be able to charge two smartphones at once

every time I plugged it in it blew a fuse in my hotel room
The net effect is that I have everything I had before plus this device in my computer bag and am frustrated every time I try to use it--hard to argue in favor of a product that makes you act stupid and feel helpless.
I bought this for use in ireland to convert the wattage when we got over there, the first time I plugged it in it blew the circuits in the hotel.
It claims to be useful for travel, but if you travel internationally it will blow up the first time you plug it in.
4S.Very dissapointing,Better luck next time Tripplite.

but at my next hotel, it did the same thing - a loud pop and followed by no power in my room.
(A loud pop and a large scare, followed by darkness in my hotel room).
Upon plugging the device into an outlet in Korea, I heard a loud pop and it knocked out electricity in my hotel room.
Electrical pop, burning smell and black ash all over my hand, the first time I plugged it in.

We used an adapter for it, and each time we tried to use it, it blew a fuse.
You would expect that a "Traveler" power strip would offer a worldwide voltage compatibility of 120-240V, but no, this device only supports 110V. My fault for still having faith in humanity and not paying attention to the specs, but this power strip will blow a fuse when trying to use in Europe
every time I plugged it in it blew a fuse in my hotel room

It will allow you to get that little extra length in those poorly designed hotel rooms and because it is so small, you can throw it in your carry on.
First time it was plugged in it blew the entire rooms
I plugged this thing into a UK outlet in my hotel by using a plug adapter (not a voltage converter) and it immediately blew up the room.

It does the job, I had it plugged at a hotel for almost three days with my laptop AC Adapter going through it, but heats up to the point that it gives me the impression it is ready to catch fire, and smells like it is burnt (a carbon smell) on the inside.
Electrical pop, burning smell and black ash all over my hand, the first time I plugged it in.
AND BURNED/SINGED SMELL GOT PRODUCED FROM TRIPP SOCKET
