good idea in theory but doesn't work as easily as expected.

good idea in theory but doesn't work as easily as expected. it's not a 90 degree angle which I thought would be cool (assumed it would sort of cradle the phone) but it doesn't work quite right. the loop is so big that with all the cord wrapped around (like many of the reviews recommend) it's not very secure. I found that the lack of flexibility in the piece with the force of the cord pushed away from the wall. I have a nexus which isn't terribly large and it barely fit. I switched to the king…

Pros
  • Nice way to put a tiny shelf wherever you need one.
Cons
  • I honestly think I could have lived without this.

Doesn't stay plugged in

The weight of the phone along with the holder causes it to pull out of the plug. The cord doesn't wrap nicely as shown. That's my feedback!

Pros
  • Perfect way to charge my phone and not have it lay on the ground.
Cons
  • May not work with certain phone cases

Very handy (great gift)

I bought this for my college-age son and will now buy it for others. This item keeps charging phones off floors, counters, etc., and out of the way. My son was pleased to receive it and said he and his suitemates often leave their charging phones on the floor. We have Razor M Droids and this holder holds our phones easily and sturdily. This item will be great for travel and would make a great gift for anyone with a cell phone. Highly recommended!

Pros
  • Choose one of our characteristic colors and you'll always have a safe place to charge or store your phone.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for all types of phones, such as those with proprietary charging ports

Easy way to hold phone while charging

I would have given 5 stars for this, but for the fact that it doesn't completely fit my husbands phone charger. The holder does work as expected, and keeps his phone off the kitchen counter; away from mishaps!

Pros
  • Solves the problem of stretching the cord to a flat surface to put my phone on. It's great for travel.
Cons
  • May take up too much counter or shelf space

saved my counter space, and, perhaps, MARRIAGE

we've been fighting over the phones constantly hanging on the counter and wires all over the place. put this baby on the charger and wrapped the wires around, put the phone on it - and voila, no more fighting.

Pros
  • Hung it on the doorknob above the outlet so the phone can be charged and is easy to grab and go
Cons
  • Not ideal for travel or on-the-go use

Cool gadet, works well

I have a short stubby charging cord at my desk and needed an option for charging. I bought this and it works well. I get a lot of comments when people see this gadget in use. Creative solution that holds the phone well when charging.

Pros
  • Good product-- we wil see how it holds up over time :-)
Cons
  • Won’t hold up a phone...at all...just falls straight onto the floor!

Good idea! in my review

In theory, yes, great product. difficult at times to balance weight of phone on holder. It tends to fall down (pulls plug out of wall). Perhaps this was designed when phones were basically hollow and not bricks we hold up to our faces. BUT, I like the idea.

Pros
  • Does what it says it will do.
Cons
  • Fragile & useless

Does what it's supposed to.

I purchased this to support an iPhone when I was on travel. It hangs on the charger reasonably well and supports my iPhone 5S. You can always stick something on top of your charger, like a padded sticker, to keep the holder hoop from slipping if you're having an issue. It folds up and travels well.

Pros
  • Works great!
Cons
  • May not be able to charge phone with a case that has a built-in battery

Performs as expected

Performs as expected but think about where your plugs are before going this route (I didn't and it does not get used). Chargers with robust cables might be hard to wind around the base.

Pros
  • Wish d hole is square to fit in the plug better
Cons
  • Not what I expected. Phone slides off
