I like this form factor as the footprint is quite small. It has a small footprint compared to the bulky long power strips. It's compact enough that it doesn't take up much space on my desk.

The usb charger outlet works. It has more plugs than i will use and also 3 usb plus one apple that i use for my watch. It charges my phone and tablet at the same time.

The power strip tower has 12 100v outlet and 3 usb-a outlet. It has lots of safety features like short circuit protection, over-current. Plenty plug ins and usb plugs. Comes in especially handy at christmas with multiple items to plug in.

I keep it on my desk, whereas my old power strip stayed on the floor and i can't bend over too well due to back issues.

This is all good. Love this tower power strip. It is exactly what i wanted. Have purchased 2 times. Will buy it again.

There is literally a photo in the listing that shows small appliances plugged into it. Don't recommend using with small appliances like microwaves, coffee makers, etc.

This works very elegantly as shown and doesn't look obtrusive. Perfect for those behind furniture outlets. Also eliminates thousands of extention cords. This is on the backsplash with countertop under it.

This only gets power from the bottom plug, so it's either all 6 outlets on or all off. Spend a little more for something with an actual resetable circuit breaker.
