Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Kensington's products &amp are safer than extension cords &amp. Perfect for laptop, fridge and cell phone.

The product itself is great - very sturdy, seems well-made, no weird chemical smells. It is just as it is advertised.

Comes with colored tape to wrap around each socket's cord. Different colored plug receptacles and matching color cord labels are also convenient.

Just what was needed for college refrigerator hook up. Gotta have a place to plug all that stuff in, after all.

Highly recommended. Works fine. Nice adaper with smart features. Still works great.



Cons

Every piece of equipment connected to this device was destroyed by one power surge. On each of the smart socket items at least 3-4 out of the 6 plugs stopped working after a few weeks of use.
