Review on πŸ’‘ Globe Electric Designer Series Power Strip with USB Ports and Surge Protection - 6ft 6-Outlet, Right Angle Plug, Circuit Breaker Switch, Black Finish - 78439, 2 Ft by Kevin Abner

WORST surge filter design

It's amazing how a simple power strip can be so poorly designed. The photo only shows the first major problem: the oddly shaped plug makes the cable stick out to the left when you plug it in, and if you try to route the cable to the right it gets ugly and uncomfortable. And believe me, that bolt-on fork just doesn't fit anywhere. The second issue is that the cable is SO stiff, if you want to plug it into some kind of tight spot you're going to have great fun, especially when combined with an odd plug. Problem, TODAY 2018 some fuckers still don't plug a SWITCH into an extension cord? What were they thinking? Should I turn it off every night before bed? Yes, it's my problem that I didn't notice this before buying, but this problem is just too stupid. I'm sending this junk back.
