Review on White Multi Plug Outlet Extender with 3-Sided Wall Outlets, Rotating Plug and 4 USB Ports, Surge Protector Power Strip (1700J) for Travel, Office - Enhanced SEO by Troy Rotermund

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The vertical position is great, the horizontal is very shaky!

The pivoting of this extension socket (with USB) was the reason I bought it. However, in a horizontal position, the weight of 1 cable and 2 USB cables causes the device to pivot down to the five o'clock position. There's a plastic screw on the back that helps keep the device parallel to the wall (which was a nice touch). However, it's good that it's plastic and not metal, as I'd be afraid the metal screw would scratch the paintwork. Overall it's fine, but I want it to stay horizontal and not rotate vertically - this causes my extension application to fail. I need to find another extension that doesn't rotate on its own, or maybe use thick CA glue to permanently attach the extension in a permanent horizontal position. +3 stars for feature improvement and -2 stars for unwanted auto-rotation to bottom vertical position.

Pros
  • Pivoting socket
Cons
  • doubt
