2 Side Entry 6-Way Electrical Socket Outlet Splitter In-Wall Tap Adapter In Grey

Flush Fit, furniture closer to the wall, cord plugs are not jammed against furniture, triple the plugs, I have put these on 80% of my outlets. They don't work for every application>>>>>for larger plugs like large old-style transformers.Living in a wheelchair, I relish anything that can increase the square footage of a room; this 2 Side Entry 6-Way Outlet fits the bill perfectly.One of the niceties that I appreciate about this outlet adapter is that one can secure this to the wall. Many adapters have no hole to screw the adapter to the original outlet. This one does have a hole. But, it does NOT come with the bolt.Go to the Hardware Store* and get this size bolt: 6-32 x 2 inch. (That means an SAE size 6; 32 threads per inch; and 2 inches long.) This will allow the outlet adapter to be secured to the outlet making a rigid system to plug and unplug. First you will need to remove the small screw in the center of the outlet cover. Leave the outlet cover in place and plug the new 6-way adapter into the outlet. Use this new 2 inch long Bolt to secure both adapter and original outlet cover to the wall.*Be sure to use Phillips Head that is also Tapered for an easy, flush fit.Search for this bolt on Amazon: Crown Bolt 33432 #6-32 x 2 Inch Stainless Steel Flat-Head Slotted Machine ScrewsCrown Bolt 33432 #6-32 x 2 Inch Stainless Steel Flat-Head Slotted Machine Screws, 20-CountMy local hardware store ACE sells these bolts for $0.12 per bolt.I also buy these outlet adapters at Harbor Freight for a slightly less price (but they only sells these in the physical store, and they are light colored instead of gray; but I don't mind the gray. Harbor Freight's name for this similar product is -- 6 Outlet, 3 Prong Side Entry Tap, White -- )

The receptacle which I modified with this Side Entry socket splitter is located in an awkwardly placed area and for years I had to leave things unplugged because some of the newer appliance plugs are so large that it made it impossible to push the appliances back to the wall, thus wasting space on the counter.This cured that problem perfectly.FORTUNATELY, I ALREADY HAD A LONG SCREW to secure it into the outlet. It would be HELPFUL to include one with future sales.I have included a PHOTO to show the installation with the large plug from the toaster which is now against the wall.

No frill - does exactly what it says. Reasonable price for a package of 2.Neither product information nor product description dimension matches what I measured but that could be some tolerances issues.My tape measure says it is 4.5" L x 3" W x 1.25" D.It's very closely matches the dimension of my extended size single gang outlet cover (as depicted in attached photos)No middle mounting screw included (as noted in product info) and it does not need it anyway, especially for decora type outlets (which does not have middle screw hole). Very snugly fit in both classic and decora style outlets.Small power bricks similar to the one in my photo will work but larger ones might have problem.Would be nice to come in different colors but for the price and function, I am happy with the product and purchase.

Arrived on time and in good condition. Both plugs worked as expected. Even when all outlets on the plug were in use, the adapter did not pull away from the wall--this adapter is made with two FUNCTIONAL plugs on the back side. It fits snugly into the wall outlet. An excellent price for a product that works.

This AC power adapter is useful for a couple reasons.1) Splits a dual receptacle into three plugs each. One side I used for my switched lights. The other side for permanent on items like a stereo or charging station.2) The cords come out parallel to the wall, rather than sticking out. Better for runs behind sofa's, etc.NOTE: USE a 6-32 2" screw to hold it into the receptacle. I don't know why some people say 1.25" or 1.5". These adapters require 2". You can get a 2-pack of brass 6-32 2" at Lowes for a little over a buck.

Not pretty by any means but work great behind tight furniture that is difficult to plug things behind. Large adaptors don't work so well, but anything with normal size plugs works great in these splitters including 3-prong. I have one splitter behind a bookcase in my home office and another behind a large sectional in the living room. All the sockets are not used, but at least I know I have availability in those areas if needed without moving furniture.

Quality is good. tight, firm-fitting sockets { all new stuff/outlets start out that way, i guess}. Bough these and 6-7 other typesto have on hand 'just in case' and for that ONE time you find yourself in fix or needing an extender and dont ave one handy.These will come in MORE handy than you realize with side-entry sockets. I got several of the 3-socket slim models also.Mom always needs this sorta stuff for holiday lights and such. As such my intened use os occasional,seasonal or installedand forget...not daily plugging and unplugging. They arent commercial-rating for heavy use, intended or marketed as such sodont expect or infer anything more than what they are. The Marketers/Retailers have it WELL PRICED. I bought two, butshould have bought more becasue inow find myself LOOKING for places to install them ! You cant go wrong for the price.

Great for power outlets that are behind furniture.

That being said it arrived in a thin plastic bag with absolutely no packing. Surprised the electrical forks were still intact.

standard product, advertised colour "light gray" in reality "dark gray"

Did not work upon arrival. In addition to that it looked cheap (looks better in the pictures). To make the experience worse, I had to pay $14 (the cheapest rate) for shipping to return the items.
