I would recommend having a certified installer from your utility company, as I did, to install this device. It was not as easy to connect everything as I was told.
The design and functionality of this product is excellent. As a New Yorker, it works super well with my small space needs. Excellent product! I highly recommend it.
I have used this product for going on two years, and it has done a fairly good job of staying out of my way. I consider it a mark of good design that I seldom notice the suppressor at all. I have had two small quibbles, however. The first is that I have one or two wall-wort-type adapters that do not fit well into the plug arrangement (they are very closely spaced). The second is that, due in part to my wall socket design, I have had an occasional issue with the suppressor coming lose from the wall when unplugging devices from it, causing all other devices on the suppressor to lose power.
Excellent, cost-effective method of expanding a standard outlet!

I recently purchased two of these swivel outlet adapters for both my parents' bedroom as well as my own, and I must say that it is fantastic to know that I have additional outlets available to plug in radios, televisions, alarm clocks, etc. What's even better is that this product is completely non-intrusive and provides wonderful protection against power surges that occur quite frequently where I live in the Southeastern United States. I get all the accessibility and protection of a full-sized powerstrip without the bulkiness and excess wires that powerstrips have. All around a great product, and a cheap solution to maximizing use out of an average power outlet.
I have this unit protecting my new LCD TV. It has not had to suppress any thing really bad yet, but here in Central Florida ( Lightning capital of the world); it is only a matter of time. Great price and great features. I have bought 2 and another model is on the bigger plasma TV for the family room! Not listed in the features is the fact that the cable (for cable TV) goes through the unit and is protected along with the power supply.
bought the swivel 6 for my hd, tv ,dvd ,dvr,& satellite systems, does a great job, works very well with the power cords coming from different directions the swivel ports are great for this. going to buy more for my home . this surge suppressor is a great buy & works great .
