PROS
12 outlets
Pivoting outlets
nice design
Long Cord
Ground and protected indicator lights
CONS
I had to wiggle some of my 3 prong plugs into the 4 non moveable outlets but they eventually went in
Customer Review: Worth the price Summary: 5 Stars
It is easy to find cheap surge protectors, but you don't know if the "savings" is really worth it until you have a power surge and your computers and appliances get fried. This product is backed up by the Belkin name and a guarantee. I ordered one and was so happy with the convenience of the pivoting sockets that I bought a second for another room. Also, you can disregard the warning of one of the reviews for this product that says the center sockets do not work. They work just fine: Almost all plugs today are polarized (one prong is wider than the other) and if your plug doesn't fit in the center sockets on the first try, just rotate it.
Customer Review: Couple of the outlets don't work Summary: 2 Stars
Couple of the outlets don't work with grounded plugs. The problem is in the center non-rotating outlets. the second from the bottom felt like something broke when I attempted to insert a grounded plug and it will not fully seat in the outlet. That outlet and the one directly above it will not power a grounded plug. A plug with only two prongs works okay. I did not return it though because of the hassle and the fact I do not need all of the outlets. I use all of the rotating outlets and they are working fine. I like the rotating feature. Keeps everything in my setup looking less cluttered since the wires lay flat with the surge protector.
Customer Review: This Belkin works great Summary: 5 Stars
This power bar works fantastic. The swivel plugs are a nice touch, and definitely add space for plugging in various sized electronic plugs. The one touch power button works great for killing the power to all my computer devices easily. Especially handy for extended days away from home. The warning lights are also great. The one indicator light tells you if the power bar has been compromised by a power surge, telling you that it did its' job. I've had no trouble plugging into all the center plugs, contrary to some other reviewers. For the low price offered, and free shipping from Amazon, this power bar ought to be an easy decision to buy.
