Extremely flexible, great product!

I got this to put in a power cord tray hanging from my variable height desk, because I have a number of awkward and large power adapters for my devices, and this allowed me to plug in many more of them than would have been possible with a flat power strip, or even one with the rotating plug face, because you can stagger them at different angles to accommodate oddball shapes. Definitely recommended, especially for cable trays!

Pros
  • Very nice. Will be ordering additional for my other rooms
Cons
  • The instructions are difficult to understand

Seems Fine best in my review

I like that the outlets rotate so you can plug in multiple large plugs without them getting in each other's way. But my disappointment is that the description simply stated that this was made of metal. That's one of the main reasons I got it. I thought it would be rugged. But it's actually made of plastic. They should update that spec to make it accurate.

Pros
  • Really happy with my purchase. Helps keep things organized.
Cons
  • The size of the device makes it difficult to transport

Everyone should have one

Bought this for going on vacation, so I could plug in CPAP, GPS, phones, and Kindles in hotel rooms without having to search the room for outlets. Ok, any power strip would do that. But all the power worts interfere with each other, this eliminated that problem and I DIDN'T HAVE TO THINK! I just got a Laser, had to plug in fan, water pump, USB hub (Thumb drive plus USB cable didn't fit Mac), and Mac. They didn't fit a standard 6 outlet power strip. This one had four outlets left over. Have one…

Pros
  • EchoGear makes a wide variety of high quality surge protection and electrical products. I'm a fan!
Cons
  • The manufacturer does not offer a warranty

Extremely handy on my review.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my husband in 2020. At first, he was a little puzzled as to why I gave him a power strip. But after using it for a year, he found it very versatile. When he saw the box at Christmas 2021, he was excited to think I bought another one. (But I had used the box for another gift and he was a little bummed.) So I'm putting this back on the Christmas, birthday, or anniversary list again.

Pros
  • Nice design so that plugs are not wasted, it's built well and better than I had expected.
Cons
  • It is relatively expensive compared to other surge protectors

No more waste of unusable outlets

Ordered this strip to use together with a Surge Protector Tower. This Echogear surge protector power strip is just what I was looking for in a strip. My old strips could not handle the big bulky plugs of most of my devices so I was wasting two to three plugs on the strips because one plug would part way cover the outlet for the next device. But not with this strip. There are two stationary plugs one on one side of the strip, one on the other. The remainder of the plugs rotate top, left side or…

Pros
  • Provides a secure and reliable surge protection for your devices
Cons
  • The device is not compatible with some power strips

Revainrating 5 out of 5

just tremendous overall versatility

Got to product to replace older power strips with surge protectors. This strip has more plugins than our other older ones did and with the arrangement we can use every single one of the plugins as they each can rotate making them amenable to even larger rectangle-shapped plugs that normally occupied 2-3 normal strip plugins. Hoping that the surge protecction is aas good as the rest of the product is.

Pros
  • Cable management hooks keep cords aligned and easily manageable. No more untangling and fussing with any chaotic cord situations.
Cons
  • The rotating outlets may not function properly in humid environments

Unexpected Massive -- Otherwise, intersting and well made.

A nice idea. Very well made. Versatile. Durable,I planned to mount it on the underside of a desk but.its massive.too massive.The thing is a pretty wide with uneven cylinders like a cam shaft. If a lot of transformers and the plan is to lay loose on the floor it fits the bill perfectly and is a great solution.

Pros
  • Comes in a pack of two for added convenience
Cons
  • The device may not protect against power outages

No wasted plugs. best in my review

The ability to rotate plugs means I never have to leave plugs open because they’re covered by large adapters or bulky cord heads. The main drawback is that the 3-prong plug for the unit itself is bulky, so it takes up more space and may cover up part of another plug.

Pros
  • Love the versatility of this adaptor. Great idea!
Cons
  • The rotating outlets may become loose over time

Excellent product. One flaw (mounting holes)

Bought this to go behind tv I was mounting on the wall. Wanted to hide all my cords. The cord length and flexibility is great, and it’s a nice thick cord. The rotating outlets are great and are securely holding my plugs. The unit itself feels extremely sturdy and high quality. As soon as I pulled it out of the box and played with it I thought about getting another to mount for my workbench.The flaw? Why build such a sturdy unit and include such small mounting holes on the back? I couldn’t get 2

Pros
  • Surge Protectors
Cons
  • The cord is not long enough for some users

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Awesome for minimizing space in the back of any furniture.

8 rotation plugs, 2160 joules protection for all electronics equipmentand flat direct plug to wall (excellent if could rotate).

Pros
  • I was and still am surprised at how well this works and how versatile it can be.
Cons
  • The surge suppression level may not be as high as other models

Excellent idea! - my new review

It's very useful, very easy to use and excellent idea for the office, kitchen, living room, room's, or any where the you may need it.

Pros
  • The different ways you can plug into the surge protector also it is slim.
Cons
  • The black color may clash with some home decor styles

This eliminated two additions to my old power cord. YAY

Nice to use with all those silly wall warts that take up two slots on most cable managers and require more. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • Box was opened as recieved
Cons
  • The cable management feature is not effective for thicker cables

Great surge protector to have in the office

This surge protector was recommended on a tech website and works great. The cord to the outlet is long, and you can fit all your plugs onto one strip with the rotating outlets.

Pros
  • Heavy-duty construction guarantees durability and long-lasting performance
Cons
  • The device may not be compatible with all wall outlets

I like that this power strip has the rotating sockets and two that are stationary. The only problem with the two power strips that I have are there is a light for protection on which is red and a light for ground is supposed to be glowing green to show that the ground is protected, I had to ask the electrician that is rewiring our house due to a tree trimmer that the neighbors hired dropped a tree limb on the neighbors power line which ended up shorting out our system causing $35,000 In damage.

Pros
  • variety plug and can't fit on regular. this is great product.
Cons
  • The outlets may be too close together for larger plugs

Love the look! on my review.

Love this because of the rotating plugs. The only thing that could make it better would be to have USB ports. That's my review!

Pros
  • I'm slowly exchanging my old (20 Year old) power strips for these! I love these!
Cons
  • The packaging is not environmentally friendly

Great gadget: my feedback

I use it next to my laptop and have two cell phones with different plugs, a charger for my hearing aids, a landline phone, and sometimes other things. It's prett long, but I would like it to have a slightly longer cord. But it works. I have too many devices with 'odd' plugs and they won't fit it the flat octopuses, but all of them fit easily in this.

Pros
  • Perfect for tech enthusiasts and gadget lovers who value their equipment
Cons
  • The device may not have adequate grounding

The best, practical surge protector I've encountered

This product is GENIUS! I Cannot believe I never heard about it till now. I don't usually give a product 5 stars but this deserves 20. It's one of the best things invented and it's so practical. Every plug gets utilized which makes sense. I'm buying this as gifts for everyone. Absolutely recommend!

Pros
  • Makes it easy to connect and power multiple devices
Cons
  • The cord may become a tripping hazard if not managed properly

Great Product - my new review

I was trying to organize the plugs in our computer area but the various size of the input plugs made a normal extension somewhat useless. This echogear extension made all those problems go away. I like the quality. Have not had it very long but if the quality of the extension is any indication, it should last a long time. My only suggestion is that the plug for the eccogear might be made in an offset manner, it does block the lower plug from being used in a double wall socket. If plugged into…

Pros
  • Power Strips & Surge Protectors
Cons
  • The heavy-duty construction leads to a higher environmental impact

Never block a plug again!

Very useful design, allowing the brick plugs to only take one plug rather than covering up other, not allowing them to be used. You could get one foot extension cords to do the same thing, but this is a lot neater. There are 6 rotating plugs plus 2 stationary plugs on both sides.

Pros
  • Built to last with high-quality materials
Cons
  • The device may not be aesthetically pleasing

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well designed. Will repurchase again!

Love it! Like many other people, I’ve got tons of gizmos that require plugging in. This fits nicely under my bedside table and has room for my phone/switch chargers, lamp, humidifier, with room for more.The rotating outlets are a huge plus as they make it easy to fit all the oddly shaped plugs all into one power strip.I didn’t need quite the length of cord and would love to see options where you can pick cord length, but overall I’m quite happy with my purchase. I’ll definitely be purchasing…

Pros
  • Provides peace of mind in areas prone to power outages or electrical surges
Cons
  • The device may not be compatible with smart home technology
