this power strip is a bargain and works as intended. no issues as yet after about one month of use. have bought others of this make in the past and they have never conked out or caused problems.
Very satisfied with this power strip. The cord could have been longer (it's only 3 feet) but overall it did what I wanted. I am using it for a TV/cable connection and needed the extra length from the wall to the cable box so I could plug them both in. Saved me having to call the cable company for a longer cable.
My husband said it would be a good idea to buy the power strip to help save on electricity so I have bought two so far. CL&P bill is going up on Jan 1st so I've been saving lots of money and I'm unplugging the ones I don't use the power strip.
The Staples Power Strip is a great product. I am able to plug in my T.V my VCR/DVD player and my T.V cable box so that I am able to conveniently shut the (stand-by) power off these products when I am not using them. I am working on my character budgeting and conserving when ever I am able to and I greatly appreciate any product that helps me do so. I am able to save on electricity costs and conserve energy. Being aware of little matters that help me save helps me improve my character. I shop a lot smarter.
Purchased this power strip for use in my sewing room. I have several sewing machines plugged into this strip and when I need to take a machine to a quilting class it's so much easier to unplug from the strip instead of crawling under my sewing shelf to find the plug. Again when plugging it back in as well. I have this plugged into a surge protector so each of my machines are also safe during a power outage. When I finish for the day I can turn this strip off from the switch on it instead of unplugging each and every machine.
