Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Belkin Secure and Charge: Lockable USB Classroom Charging Station for Laptops and Tablets (Model B2B163) by Kirt Phillips

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Expensive plastic case

Let's face it. This is a very expensive plastic bag. It doesn't do anything, it just keeps the tablets on the side and keeps the cables tidy. That being said, there isn't a better storage solution I could find anywhere. So overpriced? Yes. Does it look good and keep people from stealing all the charging cords? Also yes. It accommodates full size iPads with full multi-piece cases with enough space. Because the baffles are fixed, the iPad stays fully upright. We don't use it to store laptops, but it also fits my Dell XPS laptop easily, so it would definitely match a Chromebook in the class. My biggest issue was that the compartment inside that holds the cables should slide in and out easily for easy access, and mine was supposed to be defective because it's almost impossible to remove. It doesn't matter, I just ran the cables through without removing the tray. If it weren't so expensive I wouldn't worry. If you have a situation (educational or commercial) where you need to provide access to tablets but also need to prevent frequent "borrowing" of the cable, this is a great solution and I recommend this product. To be honest, the cost of the device is less than what we spent replacing charging cables. I ended up threading the cables through without removing the tray. If it wasn't so expensive I wouldn't worry.
