Not what is in the photo

This is not what is in the photo or description, this is not a southern cable, it is a different brand, claiming to be made by a cable from the south. Made in the USA, not Indonesia.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Has some cons

50ft NOT Made in the USA

I bought this extender because it is listed as Made in USA. I received it today and it's Made in China. Misleading ads on the front page! Don't buy this!

Pros
  • An Absolute Legend
Cons
  • So far so good

Beware of the generic extension cord, not the advertised

I ordered an American made Southwire and received this Indonesia made universal cord instead. Buyers be careful, you most likely will not get what you think you are ordering. It does not match the picture or the description of the item in the listing. To return.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Electrically not made in the USA

I bought this because it was said to be made in America. No, that is not so. The item I received does not match the description or picture. This is a universal cable sold by Southwire and made in Indonesia. I should have read the reviews first. It annoys me that Revain knows they are promoting the wrong product they are selling, but they do it anyway. mine is back!

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Hard to say

Made in China ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ cords. Brand Pro-Power, not Southwire!

This is terrible. I received two 50ft extensions today and they are not Southwire. They are also not made in the USA ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ! They are made in China ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ. I am very upset about this. They will be sent back promptly. I was really excited to have American extension cords. Instead I have to look elsewhere. PLEASE FIX THIS ON AMAZON!

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Expensive

Southwire 12-3 made in USA

Just received on 6th December 2018 Southwire 12-3 made in USA is listed under No. Instead a Southwire 12-3 Pro-power with the inscription "Made in China" . This is a nice heavy cord. The packaging is different but the cable is the same. I'm still returning it as I bought this one because of MADE in USA and ordered another 50ft Southwire contractor 02548-USA1 Class 12/3 with USA made Lighted End extension. This one is supposed to be red, white and blue, so it must be made in the USA. We willโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handy Item
Cons
  • Updates

MADE IN CHINA Best Cables, Adapters & Multiple Sockets

This cable is made in China. Having photos of a product that says it's made in the USA when it's clearly made in China is misleading if not downright fraudulent. Revane clearly has no idea what to do with other people's situations. They need to review their inventory and remove Chinese-made cables or remove photos that falsely advertise US products. I will file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

Pros
  • UL Listed
Cons
  • Not Safe

China-made cable preserved. Not the same package or part number as in the product description. As others have said, misleading sending of something other than described. Contacted the manufacturer to try and fix the issue as Revain was unable to supply the correct item; no satisfaction or remedy received, only an acknowledgment. I will never buy a Southwire product again. UPDATE: I contacted Southwire on Facebook and they sent a replacement either from this review or a Facebook request.

Pros
  • REINFORCED BLADES increase strength to prevent pins from bending and/or breaking
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Probably better for contractors than domestic use

Update 8/6/18: I've only used this cable 3 or 4 times and it's already starting to to take care and knot when I fold it back after use; My guess is that this cord was primarily intended to be pulled straight out and never moved during use, as opposed to the constant moving, tugging, etc that comes with using it for gardening around the house. . ********** ********** This product is thicker and heavier than expected and a larger size than I need for home and garden. In fact, the line is tooโ€ฆ

Pros
  • VERY VISIBLE Yellow jacket provides extra security and won't leave marks on floors or walls
Cons
  • High price
