Review on πŸ”Œ Stanley 31605 ShopMax PS 6-Outlet Power Strip with Metal Casing for Enhanced Durability by Kyle Salinas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beautiful and durable, received two different models.

I received two different models of this product, one looked fairly standard, the other had lids that could be covered with unused outlets by simply turning the lids to the closed position. I bought it specifically for winter outdoor use (although it's not designed for that, I knew I would). I use four separate sets of pond street lights and each light tree has 6 bulbs. I used to have to use so many extension cords and splitters for three that my head was spinning. This year, those little outlets are doing their job, keeping the total number of cords and connections to a minimum (saving about 100 feet of output cord length). So far, they've held up well to some nasty (correct use of the term) New England weather. We had -4 degrees, then ice, snow and rain. I don't need them as surge protectors (and it doesn't claim to serve that purpose), but I like being able to turn off all the lights when we're not using part of the pond. So far, so good.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish
