I use this surge protector by my office desk for my laptop, desk lamp, cell phone, desk fan, and printer. Everything works good and I don't feel worried since my appliances are protected. I like that it is sleek and plugs directly into wall. I used to have a GE surge protector, but that only lasted 2 years and less joule protection. I hope this one lasts a lot longer.
I own a Tripp Line Conditioner that is used with my standby portable generator during power outages here in South Florida. The unit protects all my electronic equipment and appliances. Neighbors that used a generator have lost TVs, and computers because they didn't have line and surge protection. That said, I know the surge protector will work as designed and this one is designed to allow for almost any configuration of cable management. Great product!
This surge protector has organized the wire jungle that was occurring under my desk! The rotating outlets help when cords are coming in from different directions. Would recommend!
Outlet rotation is a great conveinence when needed

This product fulfilled my intended use. I needed to be able to use the plugs in either facing side-to-side of face outward. The facing outward was required to accommodate a timer. I rated this only a four star as the unit wants fall out of the wall socket due to the uneven surface with the wall plate in place. A better design would have a hollow recess to accommodate the wall plate or to have a screw so it would attach to the wall outlet using center hole on the wall plate.
Very egonomically designed, reliable surge protector

The design of this plug in surge protector is most helpful with bulky transformer plugs and other plugs as it allows one to rotate the outlets around. Most convenient. Like other Tripp Lite products I own, I expect it to be highly reliable
Just plug in over any existing duplex receptacle and get protected. There are some wall mount protectors that require a screw to be fastened into the cover plate mounting hole to secure the unit better but this unit serves the purpose without any further assembly. If you rotate the receptacles towards the wall, plugs can be withdrawn sideways without pulling the unit off the wall. Place your thumb in the center just below the indicator light to prevent unseating the main mounting plug. It's best to keep the area around the outlet open to plain view so that the indicator lights are readily viewed at all times.
