Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful device!

I'm sure I'll like it once I install it. I live in an apartment building and I can't do that. I was a little afraid of the idea of removing the front panel with the live output. I can do anything with a hammer and nails, but I don't know much about electricity. Anyone have any advice? Update: Turning off the power was entirely optional. You don't even remove the bezel, just a small screw in the middle, and only if you want to protect the device from bumps, tugging, or the weight of multiple cables pulling it out of the wall. I am a 72 year old grandmother and as soon as I started I realized how easy it is. A few minutes and a medium blade screwdriver is all you need. The device is perfect for my needs. I don't use adapters so I can use all six outlets when I need them. (Currently my TV and converter are plugged in on one side and the Fellowes Climate Control Footrest (8030901) is plugged in on the other side). and possibly more. Please note that each of the six sockets rotates independently, however they can only be used on the side or front. So if you're thinking of fitting additional adapters by tilting, it won't work.
