Review on πŸ”Œ GE UltraPro 6-Outlet Surge Protector with Flat Plug and Designer Braided Extension Cord – 2 Ft, 560 Joules, Wall Mount, UL Listed (White)" by Brendan Thorpe

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor design - Cannot be used as shown

The outlets are very close together. Even more than conventional extension cords. I don't understand why - there's plenty of room to spread them out like other extensions do, but they don't. 2. The mounting holes are reversed, so it cannot be installed on the wall as shown in the picture. How difficult would it be to make two sets of mounting holes? I've had other extensions with multiple mounting holes in different orientations. If you just put it on the floor, it doesn't matter. If you plan to mount it on the wall, you will need to mount it upside down with the cable underneath. This is the only option. It's just a bad/sloppy design and I just printed a return label.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Could have opted for a newer model
