Outlet Extender, Surge Protector Outlet with 5-Multi Plug Outlet and 4 USB Ports(2 USB C), 3-Sided 1680J Power Strip Wall Charger, Multiple-Plug Outlet Splitter for Home Travel Office,ETL Listed,White

I bought this extender for a busy outlet located above a counter: an outlet where I was constantly having to plug and unplug different things, and a counter on which it would be convenient to charge tablets and phones. There are many such extenders available; I chose this one because it already had a great reputation (over 33,000 ratings when I bought it, averaging 4.5 stars), because its 110-120V outlets are at different angles and spaced far enough apart to accommodate most "wall warts" without sacrificing an outlet, and because it has 3 Type A USB charge ports and 1 Type C USB charge port. I also bought it for stability in a conventional American wall outlet: this extender has a center hole positioned where you can drive a screw through the wall plate fastener screw hole of your standard duplex outlet. An extra-long center screw with the standard thread for this purpose is included. Given the amount of force that multiple 3-prong cords and wall warts can exert on an outlet extender, I highly recommend choosing an outlet extender that has this feature. Added bonus: this extender has a blue LED light around the center screw, so you can see at a glance if the extender's outlets are energized.Very important: I do not recommend this outlet extender for Decora outlets, as Decora outlets have their wall plate fastener screws on their short sides rather than in the center. Unless you use the center screw, the only thing holding this extender to the outlet will be a single 3-prong plug and a plastic stud that fits into the grounding hole for the second plug, which likely isn't enough to prevent the weight of cords and wall warts from pulling the extender out of the outlet, possibly creating a fire hazard.So far, I'm very happy with my outlet extender. I found no dead outlets, and the individual outlets hold plugs well.A few caveats:- This outlet extender is too wide for use in 4-way wall outlets. (You could use it in such an outlet, but doing so would partly cover up two of the outlets, so your net gain would be one 110-120V outlet and, of course, the USB outlets.)- The user manual warns that this extender won't fit GFCI outlets or outlets with built-in USB outlets.- While the extender has an overall rating of 1,875W, which is the maximum rating for a standard 15A circuit, each individual outlet is only rated at 750W. This makes it unsuitable for use with electric heaters, as well as many air conditioners and small appliances such as toasters and air fryers.- It's unclear from the manual or the markings on the extender if each individual USB port supports up to 4.2A at 5V, or if the two Type A USB ports closest to the brand label support 4.2A at 5V each and the 3rd Type A USB port and the Type C USB port support a combined output of 4.2A at 5V, or if 4.2A at 5V is the maximum output of all the USB ports combined. There's nothing to prevent you from plugging in up to 4 USB devices, but depending on whether and how power output is divided among the USB ports, multiple devices plugged into this extender may charge more slowly than a single device plugged in. I will have to do some experiments and update this review.- None of the USB ports on this extender support fast charging or devices that draw more than 4.2A at 5V. You cannot charge or run your laptop from any of these USB ports.- This extender provides surge protection. While this is generally a good thing, that also means you can't plug powerline network transceivers into it, and it will block the powerline networking backhaul feature of a powerline+wifi mesh kit such as the TP-Link Deco PX-50.- A general caveat about surge protection: If you're buying this because you think the surge protection will save your appliances from a lightning strike, think again. Lightning is powerful enough to jump through air, which is about the best insulator there is. If lightning strikes your home, there is no plug-in surge protector made that will prevent it from blowing out your appliances. If you live in a place that gets frequent electrical storms and this is a risk for homes in your area, consult a qualified electrician for a solution that mitigates the effects of a direct lightning strike.- This extender's power indicator light, which surrounds the center screw, is blue. If blue light tends to keep you awake at night, then you may want to consider a different model for use in your bedroom.Overall, I'm very pleased with this outlet extender, and I recommend it.

This wall outlet extender does its job! I chose this one because I could remove my wall outlet's faceplate allowing the extender to sit flush against the wall. You don't have to remove your faceplate and in fact, the rear of the unit is recessed to allow for this. But for my outlet, it still left a very small gap between wall and extender, so I removed my faceplate. This is just the way I preferred to install it. I tested the USB-A voltage and the three ports provided 5 volts.My only quibble is, I wish it had a second USB-C port. Two USB-A and two USB-C would have been my choice, but I could not find an extender on Amazon that met that criteria and fit flush against the wall. I did buy one almost a year ago that fit that criteria, but that company no longer has any to purchase.

This 5-outlet wall extender with 4 USB ports (including a USB-C) is a total game-changer—especially during the holidays when space is tight and everything seems to need charging or plugging in at once. Its compact, 3-sided design saves space while allowing multiple devices to be plugged in without blocking one another.I appreciate the built-in surge protection and the versatility of the USB options. With different color and port configurations available, it’s easy to match your needs and décor. I can easily see this being useful in all sorts of settings—craft rooms, classrooms, offices, or even while traveling. Functional, reliable, and a huge upgrade from basic power strips!

I’m sure it works well but I returned it cause it set too far out.

We use these outlet extenders in our Airbnb and they’ve been absolutely perfect! Guests love having multiple plugs and USB ports in one spot—especially with phones, laptops, and other devices. The surge protection gives us peace of mind, and the wall-mounted design keeps everything neat and secure. We’ve had no issues with them coming loose or cluttering up space, they are so easy to install. I’m so impressed, I’m ordering more for our own home. A must-have for any modern space!

I live in an older house with the regular wall sockets. I would have to carry my charger to whatever room I was in. In the kitchen the two unit sockets were not convenient at all. This unit made my life better. I can now charger my husband’s phone, my phone, blender, and mixer. Loving it!

I bought this to put in my Kitchen and it's great for the purpose of charging and expanding my outlet. Only complaint is that it only attached by the hole in middle (the switch plate screw hole) and can shift from time to time. Just wish it would stay in place better.

It works well - just as advertised.Handy for use where multiple items need to be plugged in or the plugs are oddly shaped.It holds well in the socket and doesn't fall out.I haven't had any issues with power supply to devices - of course I don't overload it.Almost a year later and no issues.
