Great product!
This is a great product. Very long cord (relatively speaking, most are 6 ft) that is very durable. Having the outlets on a cube makes getting multiple plugs in very easy, and the two USB ports are a very nice plus. I would highly recommend this product. A great value!

Great Concept & Design Yet Horrible Implemenation
Like others have said, great concept and design yet horrible implementation.Pros:Great DesignFeels DurableProvides four* outletsConsReally hard to plug cords in outlet, even harder if there is a groundDifficult in removing/adding cords makes mount useless as it will damage surfaces if pulled with forceOne of the mounts covers an outlet, reducing access to a port.USB ports are only 2.1a max combined, should be 2.1a max each.USB ports are placed way too closely together.

Very Sturdy, Feels Industrial Strength
PowerCube feels industrial strength and safe, and I enjoy the long cord. It has just enough USB slots, and we have connected the Powercube in our Living Room so that we can charge our iPads, iPhones, PCs and Android phones in the living room all at once. Works pretty well.

Convenient and efficient. Works great.
This is an awesome product! I bought it because I liked the way the outlets were configured. Some of my devices have that annoying large plug that covers up other outlets on my power strip. Now I can use all the outlets on the Powercube without any interference from the bulky plugins. The dual USB ports are an added bonus. I use them for the charging cords to my iPhone and Ipad.

I wasn't impressed. Large, cumbersome, gimmicky.
I'm not sold on it. The cube just seemed gimmicky. For how much space savings it was supposed to offer it was actually quite bulky, and once you start plugging cords and large plugs into it it becomes a ball of wires. I planned on using this inside my tool box at work but it really didn't work out.

Needs Critical Improvement, but Still An Interesting Concept
THE DEAL BREAKER:Very difficult to plug USB cables into the charging ports and even harder to remove them. Prohibitively so.My husband and I to decided to return the item because of this.KEEP IN MIND::Before fastening the mounting plate to any surface, I tested how it attaches and detaches to the PowerCube. I discovered that the mount can be place on any one of the four 125v~ outlets and then rotated either clockwise or counter clockwise. No problem here. Unfortunately though, the mount can be removed from the outlet when the outlet is misaligned - rotated 180 degrees from its default position. In other words, the outlet can be left in this misaligned position which prevents anyone from fully plugging in a cord until the outlet is rotated back to its default powition. It's easy to fix if you know what's wrong and if you have the mounting plate, but if you'd never seen a cube before you'd probably think it was a faulty outlet.Outlets rotate 360 degrees:0 (12 o'clock) - Default/Standard position. A plug can be fully inserted and will receive power. The PowerCube outlet can be fitted onto the mounting plate or removed from the mounting plate when in this position.90 (3 o'clock) - The outlet is covered by the mount and is locked so that the PowerCube cannot be removed from the mount without turning it 90 degrees in either direction.180 (6 o'clock) - FALSE Default/Standard position. The PowerCube outlet can be fitted onto the mounting plate or removed from the mounting plate. A plug CANNOT be fully inserted into this outlet when the outlet. Not sure if the outlet will transfer power to the partially exposed prongs of a plug.270 (9 o'clock) - The outlet is covered by the mount and is locked so that the PowerCube cannot be removed from the mount without turning it 90 degrees in either direction.There are 6 sides to any cube; each side of the PowerCube has a particular function:Side 1 - Power cable for the Power CubeSide 2 - 125v~ outlet, can attach to the mounting plateSide 3 - 125v~ outlet, can attach to mounting plateSide 4 - 125v~ outlet, can attach to mounting plateSide 5 - 125v~ outlet, can attach to mounting plateSide 6 - Two USB ports positioned very close together (keep this in mind since it limits functionality)There is no blank side.If you're clever the PowerCube can be positioned on any one of its six sides, but typically it would rest or hang on one of the four sides with an 125v~ outlet. Not only are these the only sides that properly fasten to the mounting plate, but these four sides are adjacent to the power cable side; therefore, the PowerCube can be placed on one of these four sides without causing the power cable to stick up in the air as it does when the PowerCube is placed on the side with the two USB Ports.If you plan to use a PowerCube fastened to the mounting plate or resting on any of the cube's five flat sides, you're going to block one of the PowerCube's outlets or the USB ports.Possible solutions:Theoretically someone could create a power cube stand which would suspend the PowerCube so that all outlets or ports could be accessed.It would be possible to feed the PowerCube's cable through a hole in a desk or table top that is just big enough to fit the power cord, but not so big that the entire PowerCube falls through; this way the PowerCube would actually be able to rest on the one side that a user doesn't need to access - the power cable side.Finally, when each outlet is filled with a plug, the once compact PowerCube can become a rather bulky and unsightly intersection of cables, not that much better than a standard power strip. In some locations such as a narrow space between a wall and a piece of furniture or in a location where all plugs and their cords need to end up going in the same direction, the PowerCube can actually be worse than a standard power strip. Buyers should realize that this product, like any product, will be more useful in some situations than in others.PowerCube Extra Extended USB, Surge Protector, Electric Outlet Adapter 10ft Extension Cord Power Strip with 4 outlets and Dual USB Port 4424/USEUPCPurchased from Amazon

Perfect for my needs
This worked perfectly for my use. I needed a power source in a spot where the nearest outlet was 8' away. The product arrived on time, I followed the directions and mounted the bracket to the wall with the included tape, twisted the cube onto the bracket, plugged it in and I now have an outlet and USB charging ports right next to my favorite chair.
