Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Since it doesn't get budged much, it ends up being fine. I think the design as is is fine and convenient. Some ability to secure it more 'permanently', for example some ability to tighten it into place rigidly, would be a welcomed addition.

Suspending the cables allows for slack, which naturally compensates for mismatching lengths. I use this for power to my amazon echo and security system console. Handles my power hungry setup well.

Apc desk mount power station works great, the usb-a and usb-c outlets are quite handy for charging various things. I love the maneuverability of the power station if needed. Always plug a power station/strip into a wall outlet - not into another power... Read More

It is so convenient to have the collection of usb and ac ports so readily accessible. It feels well made and trustworthy. My only con is that the unit is slightly larger than i had anticipated.

Worked fine for 2 days then start hearing sparkling noise when i turn on the switch.

Price

They have gone up and $44 is just not worth it.

Though it’s a bit pricey, it offers all i need and is very functional.

Shipping

Additionally, the usb-c port doesn't support power delivery, so it slow charges my tablet (or wireless charger).

Packaging/appearance

One star deducted as there was no warranty card in the box, which must be returned within 10 days of purchase for the $50,000 l... Read More

The box was factory fresh and sealed, so it was never included by the manufacturer.

Competitiveness

The split of ac and usb ensures you’ve got the ports you’re likely to need, and i trust apc as a brand.
