Review on Philips 6-Outlet Extender with 4-USB Port Surge Protector, 2 Pack for Efficient Charging and Power Protection by Jorge Kehayas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic time saving product

Product works great as advertised by Philips. Any reviews complaining about the sticker should be removed, Philips has now fixed this packaging issue, or at least the 6-out/2 USB model doesn't have this issue. I bought two and the one I was able to connect properly works fine. Unfortunately, my apartment is a bit older, built in 1990. The GFCI outlet in the kitchen seems to have the outlets themselves further apart than usual because the gray support pin wasn't properly lined up with the grounding hole on the bottom outlet. But even after breaking off and sanding down, it holds up without any problems. It's easy to blame the adapter for an outdated plug. TL; DR, you get what is advertised, check your outlet spacing if it's a GFCI jack and remember it's only rated for 900 joules. Don't expect this to protect much more than small electronics.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only
