This inexpensive footswitch works well but depends on your needs. In some places it works well, in others not so much. I like that the footswitch is at the end of the cord so only one cord comes out instead of two. Footswitches that are mid-cable, so actually two cables connected to the switch, cause those other switches to tip over and not want to lay flat. I also like how it has a simple, sleek shape and all solid color. Another switch sold here looks like a red and black UFO, phew. However, there is only one socket on this cable. You'll need to buy an adapter if you need one to power two or more devices at the same time. It's not that heavy, but the outlet is at the other end of the cord. This may not be desirable in some settings. If you have multiple devices plugged in, you have an adapter with multiple outlets and multiple power cords coming out of the outlet. These are 3 or more cables. And this cord is not an extension cord. This does not increase the range of the cables at all. Therefore, the cables of all devices must reach the socket. If it doesn't, you'll need to add another extension. It's a bunch of ugly cords and sockets strewn everywhere - ugly and possibly even a fire hazard due to cheaper plastic cords and plugs. I really like this cable and would recommend it, but I was wondering if it would work well in your situations. I will use a mix of this and other cords.
