Review on πŸ”Œ Ultra-Slim SlimLine 2241 Extension Cord - 3 Wire, 8 Foot Length by Douglas Holla

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Holes flat, plugs falling out, sparks, insanely cheap

Never write reviews but I can't figure out why this gets 4.7 stars. First, the strip's body is made of hollow plastic, which feels fake, and it has a very thin cord. But the real problem is that the holes aren't deep enough and all the plugs stick out about 1/3 or 1/2 (see picture). That means if you bump into anything, the plugs can just fall out. It has a third ground hole so it seems safe to use the 3 prong plugs, but the 2 prong plugs will spark every time you try to unplug them. Gloves are probably a good idea. Anyway, I was busy at the time, so I put everything behind me. Then I needed another extension cord and bought a 6 foot green GE for an extra dollar, nice deal. Strange, but his rating was lower than this. It really shook my faith in those reviews, so I'm doing my part.

Pros
  • Sample for a year
Cons
  • Some minor things
