Editorial Reviews

From the Manufacturer
Curious children are always tempted by electrical plugs, outlets and switches. Power strips are now a common sight in many homes, controlling and protecting computers, answering machines, kitchen appliances and power tools. Our Power Strip Safety Cover protects both the children and the equipment from the dangers of curious little hands. Standard single row power strips can be easily inserted into the Safety Cover. After plugging the appliances into the outlets, the cover securely snaps shut with four latches making it difficult for small children to open. For the power strip user, there is a separate latchable door for convenient access to the on/off switch. The interior of the Safety Cover is spacious enough to accommodate many types of plugs including most transformers and heavy duty three-prong plugs as well as standard two-prong plugs.

Great product but beware of product dimensions4
We use it all over our house. It actually makes our cords look very neat. But before you buy it, please beware of the dimensions of the product (see in product descriptions). It fits all our single-row surge protectors, and even a double-row extention cord with timer. it fits most of our plugs with transformer, EXCEPT some of the bigger ones. Unfortunately, the transformers for our router and DSL modem are too big to fit in, so we still have to find another solution for those...

Good enough for me5
For a piece of plastic, it does a good job. It is hard to open (that's the point) but the power on and off switch is easily accesible, which seems a good safety precaution. It comes with three little outlet covers, and a couple of useful plastic ties for the cords. the only problem i have with it so far, is the surge protector i am using is too small, and the first plug is exposed in the on/off switch compartment that is easy to open. it is still better than nothing, but like with all kids safety products, parents are never replaced.

Love this!5
Great babyproofing idea -- my 16 month old has not been able to open this cover. Additionally, I think it actually looks better (cleaner) now that the cover is on the power strip.
