USB Power Strip 8-Outlet and 4 Smart USB Output Charging Station (Black and White)

This thing is a lifesaver -- I waited for extensive use before writing this review -- and honestly, if you're looking for something like this for an office or workplace, then this is the one to go with. The surge protectors (There are two parallel ones with lighted button switches on top) work perfectly and allow you to turn off certain outlets while leaving others on, if you should so desire (ie: turning off certain lamps with the touch of a button while still powering a laptop/tablet and a projector or monitor -- you can do that with this device, and with all of the above plugged into it via electrical outlet or USB interface)... Also, it has good traction and will stay in place on the table or desk without being mounted down permanently. Nearly as important as anything else though - it's not an eyesore. It looks great, it performs better. This particular device has the least percentage of bad reviews by proportion out of any similar items, which is why I initially picked it over the rest. Upon further investigation reading all the negative reviews, it seems like most of them just got units that were dead on arrival and either received a replacement or a refund. I understand that happens with any device, and that I got lucky, however I can almost certainly say that all the other negative reviews are almost certainly user error or people who are just inept with technology and don't realize that this isn't the device they were looking for because they don't understand the product description despite it being accurate. Like I said, this thing has stood up to wear and tear without even a hiccup on my end. It's a great unit with a lot of unique features. It has intelligent USB interface which will adjust the amperage to the correct amount for the device that is plugged in, with overcharge protection and every other bell and whistle you could possibly desire for your phone or tablet that you want to preserve the lifespan of. I don't get paid for reviews. I paid full price for this item. If you look at my reviews, you'll see that I hardly ever give anything 5 stars. I'll update if anything changes. Hope this helps someone out!

This is a nice upright power supply outlet hub that also has a series of USB ports for power charging of USB devices (but no USB "pass through to other devices; it is for charging only). It is fairly large in size without being too obnoxious, and there is plenty of room allowed to plug in most anything, including wall charger "bricks" that we often have to use. There are two on/off buttons that are recessed into the top of the unit. Each half of the button provides power to half the stand. A blue light comes on when the power button(s) has/have been depressed. The cord is about eight feet long, and is made of a very heavy material, so it would seem the device is built to withstand a good amount of current.The physical quality of the unit itself is good. It does not squeak, rattle, or feel like its put together of multiple pieces that aren't going to want to stay together. In fact, it feels sturdier than I expected. It's not bad looking, either, which is a nice thing, because you can put it on, say, a work desk and not be embarrassed by an ugly plug in station (and no shortage of this type of device really ARE ugly). Overall, it's a good device with good functionality, and I would rate it five stars.

I love this surge protector. I only wish the little blue light for the USB area wasn't so bright. It practically lights up my room when sleeping. A couple years later and MOST of the outlets have held up through the years saving me from needing to purchase a new outlet strip which is awesome but the bright blue light has only gotten more and more irritating over hte years. I have cloth over that spot constantly. Not sure if that's safe? If my house ever catches fire from that thing I guess someone come change my review to a 1-star review for a light so abrasive that I put my safety at danger.

I've used this now for several months and have been quite happy with it, I like the 6 foot cord - it makes this much more usable for me. There is a reset button on the bottom and there are 2 on/off buttons on the top to control the plugs. Depending on what equipment you have plugged in, this can be very useful. Having the USB plugs is a great feature. There is also a button to turn off the power to the USB plugs; however, the power light for the USB ports is obnoxiously bright, so much so that I covered it with a small square of electrical tape - I poked a hole in the center of the tape with a thumbtack before applying it. Now I can still see the the indicator light, but it is no longer lights up the room at night. The main convenience of this outlet is that there is plenty of room to plug everything in - there are no wasted plugs due to huge adapters blocking multiple outlets. Although this is very lightweight, most people would consider this to be too large for travel purposes.

Initially I liked this product because I can use it to charge my laptop and other devices including the USB for my family of 5. Great when we don't have to use the blocks to charge our variety of devices, cell phones, tablets, reader, cameras and Bluetooth headphones. The long piece for the USB charge came out of the device AND now not it doesn't work at all. The concept is great, but it needs better manufacturing needs to be done to hold the pieces together. Purchased 7 months ago. It sits on my office desk and plugged into an outlet via an extension cord. Probably can't return it and have wasted my money.

I put one of these on a nightstand in our vacation home between two queen beds so that guests can charge their devices easily. The charger works well, but is larger than I expected. Also, the on/off buttons are not labelled very well, so I worried that guests would plug things in without the outlets delivering power. A label maker solved this problem though. I labelled the buttons for the power outlets and the button for the USB ports as well.Also, the LEDs that indicate the outlets or USB ports are on can be a little bright, so I covered them with electrical tape.

This vertical power stacker is awesome! Design is great with good spacing of the power sockets (360-degree nonblock sockets). There are 2 switches on top for the sockets with red LED light. 4 smart USB charging ports with an on/off button as well that has blue light. Great on/off button feature for safety. The USB charging is fast. Has built-in overload protection.So happy with this product. Saves space too as its vertical. Perfect for home office. Highly recommended!
