Masterplug Heavy Duty Six Socket Switched Surge Protected Extension Lead with 2 USB Ports, 2 Metre, White

Very happy with this product. Bought at a very reasonable price of £16 which seems to be about average for a 6 way extension lead with surge protection and USB. The main thing I like about it is that it feels very solidly built, although can't comment on the quality of the electronics inside which is what really matters! It certainly feels Heavy Duty as per the name. Shiny, solid plastic with a good weight to it. Definitely doesn't feel cheap. Also I use this to keep on top of my desk for ease of access. Since it has a good weight it stays in place well even with a few plugs connected to it. It looks smart on my desk and is compact due to the fact that it has 3 sockets on either side rather than in a long, straight line. I've not plugged in anything into the USB port as yet but assume this should be fine. USB port have a slightly higher amp rating and should be good to charge two devices comfortably at normal (slow) speed or one device at a faster speed, but definitely not the new super fast charging standards. Would definitely recommend this product, especially for £16!

Been using this model (and other Masterplug units) for years. For the safety of my devices, and general fire safety, I've gradually replaced every multiplug in the house with Masterplug, many with this model.

Marvellous product. Just didn't expect AMAZON to deliver LATE to the AMAZON HUB on a Sunday after the AMAZON HUB (the Post Office) had closed and then to get accusatory and chastising emails claiming unsuccessful delivery attempts - sent from a no-reply email account. Just sayin' AMAZON - poor show - fix YOUR stuff first before blaming others:-/

In this day and age it is always difficult to find the perfect extension lead for your given scenario. This suits my requirements perfectly. I already own one of these leads which runs off a wall plug beside my bed, however I've ordered a second one for my wifes bedside as she requires USB-C for charging. The extension lead is well built and feels solid. I am using a couple of 'normal sized' uk plugs so large power supply adaptors won't be too useful as they'll still block an additional socket. Just bear in mind what you plug into this thing because as others have mentioned - the extension lead does not switch back on in the event of a powercut, the end user has to re-activate it. The only real downer for me is the blue power LED light atop the unit. If I wanted a landing beacon for airplanes then this would be hugely useful outdoors - it is just way too bright and I keep forgetting to cover it up with some tape as it illuminates the ceiling!

As I spend a lot of time working from home on my 15" laptop, I decided to upgrade with two 15" monitors and a docking station... but that meant needing an extra 3 sockets and I only had one spare. I needed a replacement extension lead, and this one has fitted the bill completely, including a 2m cable that makes it practical for my nearest wall socket. Not only do I now have ample space for all my plugs, but I now have extra capacity for charging USB devices and surge protection, all in a compact and (as far as extension leads go!) attractive design.
