These surge protection devices are small and compact. The tight fit to the wall is exceptionally clean and easy makes it easier to manage cords. I especially like the guarantee against damage to connected devices. This is a "must have" for those interested in protecting their electronics.
I recently moved from California to Oklahoma and I am not used to all the lightning we get here. A month ago we had a lot of lightning and a 3 second power outage. I had one Trip-o-lite surge protector on the living room satellite tv only and it saved the equipment from the surge . The bedroom satellite box had none and was destroyed. We had satellite insurance and they replaced unit. I ordered additional surge protectors and put on all outlets in the house that had electronics connected including cell phone chargers, computers, TV's, radio's etc and have weathered two storms since. This is a small investment for peace of mind and maybe saving a a major repair bill.
Only reason I did not give 5 stars is because it needs a screw that would replace the screw on an outlet faceplate. This would make it stay in place better when heavier plugs are plugged in.
I needed a flush mount outlet to put behind my mattress for safety and this product is excellent. It fit all my devices and my lamp and keeps them safe to the side and allow me to place my bed where I want it! Now I know what to get for outlets behind furniture!!!
This is a quality product with nice features. Using this item allowed me to get all the power cords off the floor and neatly hidden against the wall. The slim line and swiveling outlets allowed me to the the entertainment center closer to the wall. Warranty against power surges, if needed, was the final selling feature. Highly recommended.
The Tripp-lite is great. This was my 3rd one I purchased, because its swivel plug is convenient behind the nightstands and entertainment center. I feel my electronics will be safe from any surges that may happen during storms or other things.

Great plug in. Protects electronics during electric storm well. Pro - I can rotate outlet so plug-ins face sideway and keeps the cord flush against the wall so it is not a tripping hazard. Con - Nothing securing it to the wall outlet, so animals can walk by and get tangled in component wire that is plugged in.....fixed that by rotating plug sideways....See Pro comment above.
