What Others Say
Looks decent, works well but has one flaw
There are 11 outlets but I am only able to use 7 due to reason stated below and I am fine with that. It looks decent than open surge protectors but there is one issue. The video shows that it hides all the cables and chargers and thats what I exactly wanted. However, I was able to attach only one charger out of 4 I have got, because of the socket design. As you can see that the sockets are fixed and it can take only standard chargers shown in the video. But other than this this is really a good one if you consider 7 sockets instead of 11 + it conceals
Great surge protector!
I purchased this surge protector for my home office.
It helps to organize and hide all the wiring neatly in a small package.
I was wary of buying it at first due to all the reviews about the poor design of the door hinges. I bought it anyway.
Well, i'm very satisfied with the unit and I recommend it to anyone that is looking to have concealed surge protection in a neat package.
I avoided the broken door hinge problem by gently removing the door from the unit, installing and arranging all the wiring, setting the unit in position and then put the door back on.
I realize that consumers should not have to do this but, until Belkin makes stronger hinges, this is the way to set it up without breaking them.

Not as flimsy as they say
After reading a few of the reviews here I was wary about ordering this item, but I needed something to hide my power cords and this does exactly what I need. I don't think that the hinge is as flimsy as they say. Just be careful and don't toss it around or yank it open. Just open it, plug things in and leave it alone. Maybe the people who had problems with this open and close the cover day in and day out. I need to open it only a few times per month to plug something in and it works just fine.
Also if you need a smaller one they have another model called the Belkin Mini Concealed Surge Protector.
Nice power management for lots of AC cables
You know the line: you could never have enough money or be young enough! Well with computer desks - You can never have enough AC Outlets! I thought for sure this one would accommodate all my AC devices, but it was a tough squeeze to get them all inside this device. I must admit (not being a big fan of Belkin products) that this made for a nice management device for AC cables, wall warts etc. However, I still had problems with certain wall warts - specifically - the AC charger from Moto for a Razor was unhappy in any slot, and large bulky AC cable had a hard time doing the 90 out the side. Also, once I crammed everything I had into the outlets and tried closing the cover - it just wouldn't stay closed - an oversight on the part of the designer ... Read More
Limited effectiveness in design
I am using this for my home theatre equipment, which also includes about 4 items that require AC adapters of various sizes. The design of the closing cover really is not big enough to accommodate the AC adapters, and all the various components have widely differing lengths of cord. Those conditions render this unit much less effective in cord management than the images suggest. While the picture looks nice and neat, depending on your setup and the lengths of your cords, it may not work out. In addition, the stiffness of cable cords pulls the unit in odd directions. The cover doesn't shut all the way. It is not an effective deterrent to curious children.
If I were to buy something again I would use a smaller powerstrip with a cable ... Read More
