One of them shorted out and my circuit breaker was blown.

I had the opportunity to use only one of the 3 ordered. The one I chose blew out and tripped the circuit breaker as soon as I connected it to the plug. Wouldn't recommend it. I don't know if they are actually certified by UL Underwriters Laboratories. Now I know you get what you pay for. I didn't contact customer service because it's just not worth the time.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • There are nuances

They just aren't "rugged "

I bought them because they were significantly cheaper than the GE brand, but it's weird, the build quality just didn't feel solid and they wouldn't let up connect so securely . I don't know, I couldn't find out exactly, but I definitely felt the difference and that's why I had to return them. After all, electricity is something that can ruin your whole life and even kill you, so I decided I didn't want to skimp on it!

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • There are downsides

Not bad but sent back

It worked and worked great. functional. But it wasn't exactly what I needed so I sent it back. Why? The pin holes didn't match. By that I mean showing the holes for the prongs as a smiley face. Two eyes at the top with a hole in the bottom that serves as a bracket at the bottom. So he sticks to the wall. But on the opposite side, the smile is slanted, eyes on the left, and a mouth with a hole in the bottom on the right. Why not get out now?!?! I had a power outlet splitter that I wanted to useโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is awesome
Cons
  • So far so good

Danger! DO NOT BUY! Serious quality control problems!

I've used two of these without incident and the third was a spare. I used it for the first time yesterday by plugging in the drill (polarized not grounded) and as soon as I touched the socket of the cube IT SHORTED AND EXPLODED! The brightness of the short was like a .45 magnum muzzle flash. Not only did the short trip my circuit breaker, it also blew a 125A fuse for that half of my home's electrical system โ€” a fuse that can handle a 200kA surge. ! That's 200,000 amps! There was carbon covering

Not as versatile as I expected from the photo

The product is decent enough if you intend to use it in an outlet. My use case is wall warts that have their plugs rotated 90ยฐ so they can't be installed in a UPS or power strip without covering nearby outlets. Thought it would solve the problem - no. But. If they turned on butts on all faces it would work for me. The jacks are on the sides, so if you are connecting to a surge protector or UPS in an east/west orientation, you can use the north/south orientation for the side jacks. Their size of

Works as expected and is a great value solution

Cubes arrived quickly and are very strong Used them behind my receiver and power station, moving them around and mounting them on narrow floating shelves fitted next to my new fireplace. I didn't plan the length of the back end caps and had to improvise to keep the edges of the components from protruding over the shelves. They were perfect for this because connector cables don't bend easily and I didn't want to bend them because over time (especially with the heat generated by the components)โ€ฆ

More power, more is better!

These are cute little cube faucets. I use them for a variety of production needs and they've worked great so far. each other, which is a nice touch. The only downside to this is that when not in use, the nesting will result in the stack not being flush and square to each other. This may bother most people with OCD, but generally doesn't affect its use. They are made of plastic which seems to be quite durable. They can break if you repeatedly throw them into concrete or if they get hit by aโ€ฆ

Note the orientation and size of the socket

The devices appear to be of good quality. I have found that there are several different socket orientations on similar adapters. I advise you to pay attention to the orientation. See photos. You'll have to decide if you're going to be connecting large power supply blocks and their pin orientation, just extension cords, or whatever. I bought several adapters in two different designs. Sometimes it's handy for me to extend the first adapter with one or two more to create additional outlets. Payโ€ฆ

  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
