5 out of 5 stars Surge protector   December 1, 2008
John Torres (Central Jersey)
Excellent for many components. The outside outlets swivel allowing for all electrical outlets - large or small to fit.


5 out of 5 stars Love the options!   December 1, 2008
E. Larson (Sacramento, CA USA)
This was the only one I found that would accommodate all of the items plugged in around our desk. It has a great design that allows for all of those pesky adapters - very versatile. Also, it can be hung on the wall. This is a great feature that eliminates the dust bunny/electrical cord mess that usually occurs under a desk (on wood floors). I really appreciate this product, a small thing that makes a big difference.


5 out of 5 stars Great protector   November 18, 2008
M. Waal-Rivera (NYC)
This surge protector was not my first choice, but I'm glad I purchased it. The Pivot plugs are very useful. There's plenty of space to put a Brick into 4 of the pivots facing out and alternating with regular plugs, facing them up. br / br /Great product and worth the purchase.


5 out of 5 stars Belkin Pivot-Plug Surge Protector   November 9, 2008
K. Satyaprakash
br /A compact, flexible and good surge protector. The advantage is having 12 power outlets with 8 swivel heads outlets. Fits well behind TV stand or any other furniture or hung on the wall. Worth spending on this reliable protector and save on costly damage. I have shopped at Amazon for various electronic gadgets and am always happy with my purchases.


3 out of 5 stars Good value, but only buy if you need 8, not 12, plugs.   November 8, 2008
D. Baker (Houston, TX)
This Belkin surge protector is an excellent value for the dollar--Belkin products are on par with Monster, but Monster will cost 2-3x as much. br / br /I originally purchased this surge protector for my home theater system, which I previously had on a Monster protector; however, I needed more plugs to solve a ground loop situation that I was incurring. After shopping around, I found Amazon had the best deal on this Belkin protector. br / br /While solving the ground loop problem, I can confirm, much to my disappointment, that only eight of the twelve plugs are functional. The four plugs in the middle are unusable--I have tried several items, none of which will fit into those four plugs. All of them will go about halfway, then stop--trying to push the plug further in sounds like I am trying to push through plastic. br / br /I have noticed that all of the plugs took a small amount of force to push the cord into; however, the eight pivot-plugs work fine. I had originally envisioned to only use eight plugs, then have an extra four for future use, but now that I am using all eight functional plugs, I am having second-thoughts about this purchase. br / br /In summary, this is a good surge protector; however, only eight of the twelve plugs are functional--be aware of this prior to purchasing!
