What Experts Agree On

What Experts Love

  • Swallows a surge protector up to 10.5 in long, which is the exact piece of dorm gear that otherwise sits in a dust pile against the baseboard
  • External dimensions of 12.75 in x 5 in x 4.5 in fit under a desk or behind a mini fridge without claiming desktop space
  • Three rear entry and exit slots let the cords leave tidily instead of erupting from an open end
  • Sits free-standing with nothing adhered or clamped — the most reversible install in this roundup
  • Click-lock lid keeps a curious roommate, a visiting pet and a spilled drink away from a loaded power strip

Common Criticisms

  • Only manages the cords that route through it — the desktop charger sprawl is a separate job
  • A closed box holds heat, so it suits a strip and cords rather than a hot charging brick
  • Check your strip first: anything longer than 10.5 in needs the larger size, not this one
