Review on πŸ’‘ KMC 6-Outlet Power Strip with Individual Switches, Overload Protection, and 4-Foot Cord by Barbara Ortega

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It works as intended but the quality control is very poor, read on for details

It works and looks like a solid $13 product. I like the separate switches and master switch, they make it easier to organize cords and I don't have to plug and unplug them anymore. One star off for poor quality control. I uploaded a photo for reference. First, all the switches are illuminated when on, but the main switch backlight didn't work to begin with and I don't think anyone bothered to check it after assembly. So if individual switches are off I can't tell if it's working main switch. The switch is on or off until I take a closer look, it's a bit annoying. Second, as always, the main switch is stamped OFF/RESET while the individual switches are stamped ON/OFF. Well, one of the individual switches also has an OFF/RESET stamp, so I suspect they put the wrong part in when assembling it, and again nobody bothered to check and replace that part. This silly mistake, which QC didn't notice, doesn't affect the operation but says something about the company. Given the price I give it 4 stars but if I paid $10 more for it I would ask for a properly assembled replacement with all the gauges working.

Pros
  • Well made
Cons
  • Some small things
