We chose these socket adapters so we don't have to plug and unplug ceramic heaters, coffee pots, kettles, etc. We've had several of these old models and they couldn't have two in one outlet (too big) - They allow two devices to be used from one outlet and are the perfect convenience. The click of the backlit switch is much better than plug and play and also reduces cable wear. Our old Breville toaster oven plug/cable was in pretty sorry shape getting plugged in and out - these switches work great for those high amperage items too. Happy with the purchase, have ordered a second set.
