Plenty of Power

from Tigard
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product arrived at the perfect time. The 3 outlets were just what I was looking for in my home office & crafting space. I plugged my laptop sewing machine and cutting machine into the outlets and was still able to plug in my phone charger as well as my watch charger. I like the addition of USB-C in addition to 2 USB-A. Having the surge protection also gives me added peace of mind particularly for my laptop. I didn’t mount it to my desk - but having that option is also really great. Overall a great product that performs as expected.

Great option for extra outlets and chargers
on May 11, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't realize I would like/need this so much. It's perfect for my work space as I work from home! It does provide me with more outlets but the best part is the extra USB and USB-c ports. I can easily charge my phone power my oil diffuser and charge my mouse with it - all at one time. It has already gotten so much use!! It's the tech item you don't realize you need until you get it and use it :)

Fantastic surge protector outlet
on May 11, 2025
Posted by: L.B.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this Staples Tech Surge Protector. It’s compact yet powerful and the design is perfect for both home use and travel. I used it to charge multiple phones a tablet and a small laptop while traveling and it handled everything smoothly. The combination of two AC outlets and three USB ports was super convenient and I especially appreciated how many devices I could charge at once without needing separate adapters. The 5-foot cord was a standout feature—it gave me the flexibility to reach outlets in hotel rooms or hard-to-reach places at home. It’s very handy for travel when you need to power up multiple devices at once.

Surge Protector
on May 11, 2025
Posted by: M.D.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Tech Surge Protector 3-Outlet +3 USB Desk Mountable 900 Joules 5ft Black does everything exactly the way it should. I was impressed with design. It features a square rather then a long rectangle strip. The design allows for better placement and stability of the device. I loved that it had usb designated outlets which makes charging things like cell phones and other small personal devices a breeze. I also really enjoyed the ability to mount this. For our purposes we mounted this to the lower side of our bed so we can utilize it with devices we use and place on our nightstand. I have not had any issues at all it works perfectly.

Finally My Electronic Cables Are Organized
on May 11, 2025
Posted by: R.C.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work from home using a laptop large external monitor scanner printer and phone line. Each piece of electronic equipment requires its own cable with its own type of plug. I hate the visual clutter of electronic cords dangling and tangling and I hate that the length of the shorted cable determines how far my desk can be from the outlet on the wall. This surge protector solves each of those problems. I love the sturdiness and stability of the desk-mounting clamp. This thing has completely stayed put with no wobbling or slippage. The variety of the electric outlets is really useful and saves me time and money on adapters. And with this variety of outlets firmly mounted on my desk I can move my desk farther from the wall outlet and with greater space my work space is more organized. A more organized workspace is definitely a more productive and peaceful one for me!

Numerous plugs and helpful desk mount
on May 11, 2025
Posted by: C.G.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This surge protector has been really helpful in keeping my cables organized. I do like how there is a USB-C port included since a lot of surge protectors don’t include one. A lot of the time I have slight difficulties mounting other surge protectors because they don’t typically come with the materials to be able to mount them anywhere. The desk mount that came with this one was really helpful in securing the surge protector in such a way that nothing was damaged.

Low Profile Surge Protector
on May 11, 2025
Posted by: R.L.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I am pleased with the surge protector. It is a low profile item that has just enough outlets for my needs. I am using it on my dresser that holds a tv. It has enough outlets for the tv and streaming device with some extra USB slots available to charge devices. The addition of the USB outlets make it more convenient to charge devices on my dresser and have access rather than having cords behind the dresser.

Convenient and Functional Design
on May 9, 2025
Posted by: M.W.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This surge protector power strip provided a seamless and convenient charging experience. The surge protector strip comes with two regular AC power ports and three USB ports. This was extremely helpful for the different types of devices that were used with it. I typically used it to charge personal devices such as phones or laptops. The design is compact which was another pro making it easy to fit neatly into smaller areas. I also liked the simple black color. The surge protector itself provided adequate protection for basic items but I wouldn't use it for larger items such as TV's or computer systems. Overall there weren't any big cons that I had noticed. However it is very important to note that it only has 500 joules which is only helpful for basic protection and for less valuable or sensitive devices. For those looking for a smaller surge protector for basic use this is a perfect and cost-effective option.
