Review on 🔌 Convenient Pop-Up Outlet with Wireless Charger and Retractable Power Strip - 4 AC Outlets, 2 USB Ports by Dustin Wheeler

I bought two of these to incorporate into a brand new kitchen island. But as soon as I received them, I realized they had a few issues. First, when the block is lifted, it tilts completely to one side. Second, the whole block is completely loose in the base and wobbles about 1/2 inch from side to side. My wife was NOT HAPPY. Instead of returning it I was trying to figure out what was wrong and if I could fix it. First I needed a screwdriver to check. I found out that the device is designed for two lifting pistons, but only one was installed, which caused the device to tip in the opposite direction when it was extended. I was able to fix this by removing the piston from my second block. But there was still a lot of headwind. Each piston slides into a tube that is much wider than the piston, allowing the entire block to rock. So I took duct tape and wrapped it around each piston until they fit snugly in their tubes. It helped some, but the reluctance was even greater. It seems that the retractable electrical part of the device doesn't fit snugly against the case's outer tube, resulting in more wobble. So I'm going to use felt tape inside the outer shell tube to take up some extra space. When I'm done with it, I have confidence that it will work as it should and be reliable.
