GE 3-Outlet Power Strip Surge Protector, 8 Ft Braided Extension Cord

This GE surge protector feels sturdy and reliable. The outlets grip firmly, and the overall build quality is noticeably better than average. The layout is well thought out, with enough spacing between outlets for most plugs and adapters. It handles multiple devices at once without overheating, and the flat plug makes it easy to place behind furniture or tight spaces. The cord is thick and flexible, with a good length for home office or media setups. The switch and indicator light work as expected. It’s rated well for everyday electronics, and performance has been consistent. One thing to keep in mind is the plug orientation — depending on how your chargers are shaped, some can block neighboring outlets. Once arranged properly, though, it’s a solid and dependable surge protector that’s built to last.

The 5 inch extension cord was perfect for an area in my kitchen where I was trying to hide the thick cords from my espresso machine, coffee grinder, and mild frother. The extension cord only extends out of the plug in one direction, so I actually had to turn my electrical receptacle 180 degrees so the cord, when plugged in, would extend down, instead of up. I was able to neatly tie the 3 plugs after plugging them in and hiding them behind a couple canisters. I'm very pleased with the results!

As described

this is probably the 5th one i've ordered! it's the perfect power strip when owning a cat who loves to chew on cables. my orange cat doesn't mess with these at all so it helps cable management immensely.

The diagonal nature of how the cord comes out from where it plugs in to the wall could be seen as a benefit or a drawback. I lose some bit of that 8 feet of range if I am using my appliance or other accessory in the opposite direction from where the cord comes out. Otherwise, this extension cord is good.

Good quality and definitely awesome value for money

Be aware that while the GE brand is on this item, General Electric has nothing to do with it. They sold that business to the people who make, or at least sell, these. This is not a reflection on their quality, it is just the way things are these days. Be further aware that the wire is 16 gauge. This is NOT shown on Amazon. It is NOT shown ON THE BOX. But the bit of paper IN the box does reveal it, if you look for it hard enough. The next heavier gauge, 14, is what most houses have in their walls for most lights and outlets, but 14 gauge for an extension cord is heavy and expensive. These, at 16 gauge, are fine for everything I want them for. I bought two, 15 foot each. They come tightly wound up in their boxes. I was concerned that being so tightly would they would remain showing that shape forever. I was VERY pleased that when I stretched them out they lay straight, not curling back up at all. Finally, when I just read the review that was at the top of the list it called this a surge protector. IT IS NOT A SURGE PROTECTOR. The product description is correct - makes no mention of protection - but that review should be removed.

Exactly what I was after .... very pleased. MF

Très bon achat

Great outlet. Love the design.

Absolutely love it! Very thick cord, great quality! The flat plug is a definite advantage. I just find the sockets a bit tight.

Works perfectly and the flat/angle head is low price.

Muy útil de buenos materias y acabados y ayuda mucho que el enchufe sea plano para esos lugares difíciles de conectar
