Rating - Great power strip for all your power needs
Yeah, this power strip is small and doesn't have many power ports. Go spend more money during these difficult times on a more expensive power strip if you need to. However, once you get past the size, this is a great power strip. The cord provided is very long, and can reach all the way around the back of a desk, home theatre set up, or anywhere you decide to snake this cord around. The cost of this excellent power strip from Monster is cheap and does it's job: power electronics. I've got my Mac Book Pro, WD external HD, Klipsch speakers, and an iHome all plugged into it and it powers them all wonderfully. Sure, I might get clearance issues every once in a while but with a little organizational skills, I power them all fine. For the money, for quality that you're getting, and for the background you get with Monster cable, it doesn't get any better than this.
Rating - Monster Cable
Is a good item if all of the plugs you are using stand upright and are standard sized. I got it to sit against a wall for sideways plugs. Holds plugs tightly so you'll have to push a little. No problems with it so far.
Rating - The thing fried
After a few weeks the thing just fried. All devices plugged into it went off. The rest button did nothing. Exactly the same as what Douglas Schifter wrote in a previous review. No damage to any devices but I don't even thing there was a power surge. The lights (plugged in elsewhere) did not flicker. The thing just burned out. That's not very "Monster". I've replaced it with a surge/power strip made for computers (3000 joules protection) that was half the price of the Audio/Video Monster version (1400 joules protection). Monster is overpriced and inferior.
Rating - One heck of a cord
I don't know what some of you are talking about when you say that this is an inferior product. Monster is a really good, quality brand. The outlets are tight, so you don't have to worry about your cords coming out and losing power. It might be a bit much, but it's not that hard to get in. Someone said they had to put their full weight into it to get plugged in, they must be a wimp since a small guy like me was able to easily push it in with a little force. It looks a bit fruity, but it works really well. Plus the long cable is nice to have since none of my outlets are near my computer desk.
