SUPERDANNY 10Ft Extension Cord with Multiple Outlets, Flat Plug Surge Protector Power Strip 10 Ft Long Cord, 8 Outlets & 4 USB Ports (2 USB C), Desk Charging Station for Home Office, College Dorm Room Essentials

Why I swapped in this power strip

I spend a lot of time tweaking my home office layout, and one of the persistent headaches has been juggling big power bricks, small wall warts, and a growing collection of USB-charged gear. I brought in the Superdanny 10‑ft power strip to simplify things: eight AC outlets, four USB ports, a slim flat plug that actually fits behind furniture, and a generous cord length I could route neatly without daisy-chaining. After several weeks of daily use at my desk—and a few quick experiments around the house—I have a clear sense of what this strip does well and where it comes up short.

Design and build

The standout feature is the four‑sided outlet layout. Instead of a long “bar” where one large plug blocks two neighbors, outlets are spaced around the perimeter with 1.65 inches between them. In practice, that made an immediate difference. I could use a chunky laptop charger, a monitor brick, and two smaller adapters all at once without fighting for space. The body is compact enough to sit at the back of a desk, and the white finish blends into most setups.

The 10‑foot cord is long, flexible, and easy to route. The flat head is legitimately slim (about 0.3 inches), and the 45‑degree angle keeps the other receptacle in a duplex outlet usable. That’s especially handy behind a couch or nightstand; I could push furniture nearly flush to the wall without pinching the cable or sacrificing the second outlet.

Build quality feels solid for the price bracket. The casing is V‑0 fire‑retardant, which is the right spec to see on a device that will live beneath desks and behind furniture. The cable is UL‑recognized (the cord component is certified), and the overall fit and finish are neat. The strip sits flat and doesn’t slide around easily when you plug and unplug.

AC capacity and layout in practice

Eight AC outlets is generous, but the spacing is what makes them usable. My test load included:

• A 90W laptop brick
• A 27-inch monitor power adapter
• A desktop speaker power adapter
• A desk lamp
• Two small wall warts for accessories
• A label printer
• A network switch

Nothing overlapped or forced me to relocate plugs. There’s no individual switch per outlet, and there’s no master rocker switch to cut power to everything at once. That’s either a pro or a con depending on your preferences; I prefer a master switch for a quick shutdown, but I also appreciate not having a giant neon light glaring at me. This unit uses a subtle status indicator (not bright), and that’s it.

A note on capacity: the strip is rated for 10A/1250W total. That’s perfectly fine for computers, monitors, chargers, lamps, and small accessories, but it’s not intended for high‑draw appliances like space heaters, hair dryers, or air conditioners. Keep those off this (or any) power strip.

USB performance: good for accessories, not a fast‑charge hub

You get two USB‑A ports (5V/2.4A each) and two USB‑C ports (5V/3A each). The important fine print is the shared budget: total USB output tops out around 15W. That means:

• It will charge phones, earbuds, smartwatches, and low‑draw tablets reliably.
• It will not provide USB‑C Power Delivery (PD) for laptops or fast‑charge phones at higher voltages (no 9V/12V profiles).
• If you plug in multiple devices, the available current is shared and overall speed drops to stay within that ~15W cap.

In my testing with a USB power meter, a single phone on USB‑C pulled near 12–14W and held a steady 5V. Adding a second device split the available current as expected. For overnight or background charging, it’s great. For quick top‑ups or laptop charging, you’ll still want a dedicated PD charger.

Surge protection and safety

Surge protection is rated at 1050 Joules. That’s a moderate level aimed at everyday protection, not industrial‑grade suppression. If you’re connecting typical home office gear, this is appropriate. If you’re safeguarding expensive AV stacks, studio equipment, or mission‑critical workstations in high‑surge areas, consider a higher‑Joule unit or a layered approach with whole‑home surge protection.

The strip also integrates overload protection (1250W) and 10A over‑current protection. I purposely loaded the outlets with a mix of adapters and cycled power; everything stayed cool to the touch, and I didn’t encounter nuisance trips. As always, use a single power strip per wall receptacle and avoid daisy‑chaining extension cords for safety.

Mounting and ergonomics

Two keyhole slots on the back make wall or desk‑underside mounting straightforward. After marking and pre‑setting two screws, the strip slid on cleanly and felt secure. The four‑sided outlet arrangement actually works nicely in a mounted setup because it keeps cords from all pointing in the same direction, which reduces one big cable bundle. I would have appreciated an included template or a paper guide for the screw spacing, but it’s easy enough with a tape measure.

The flat plug is the ergonomics highlight. In tight spaces where a standard plug would crumple a cable or pull loose, this one sat flush and stayed put. That small improvement made a big difference behind my media console.

Noise and heat

There’s no audible coil whine or buzzing under load—good news if the strip lives on a desk. Thermals were uneventful; even with all eight AC outlets in use and two USB ports charging, the housing stayed only slightly warm.

What I’d change

• Add a master on/off switch. Cutting power to everything with one click is useful for saving stand‑by power and performing quick resets. If a switch isn’t in the cards, a more visible status indicator could help confirm at a glance that the strip is live.
• Offer a higher‑power USB option. A variant with 45–65W USB‑C PD would eliminate the need for a separate laptop charger in many setups. As it stands, the 5V‑only USB is a convenience for accessories, not a replacement for a PD brick.
• Increase the surge rating. 1050J is fine for everyday use, but a premium variant with 2000–3000J and indicator lights for protection/ground status would appeal to users with more to protect.
• Include a cable strap or mount screws. Small extras make installation cleaner and more convenient.

Who it’s for

• Home office or study desks with mixed plugs and a need for tidy power distribution.
• Dorm and apartment setups where a flat plug and long cord help reach usable outlets without rearranging furniture.
• Media consoles and nightstands where big adapters often block neighboring receptacles.
• Users who mainly need basic USB charging for phones, earbuds, and wearables—not fast‑charging laptops.

It’s not the right pick if you need high‑wattage appliance support, USB‑C PD for laptops, or enterprise‑grade surge suppression.

The bottom line

The Superdanny 10‑ft power strip solves two everyday problems very well: it makes bulky adapters coexist without a fight, and it reaches inconvenient outlets while sitting flat behind furniture. The four‑sided layout is genuinely practical, the cord and plug design are thoughtful, and the build inspires confidence for indoor use. Its USB ports are a nice convenience for low‑power devices, but they don’t replace a dedicated fast charger. Surge protection is adequate for common home office gear, and the safety features are on point for a 10A strip.

Recommendation: I recommend this power strip for desks, dorm rooms, and living spaces where you want many outlets in a compact footprint and value the flat plug and extra‑long cord. If you need USB‑C Power Delivery or higher surge ratings, pair it with a dedicated PD charger or look to a more specialized surge protector. For most everyday setups, this is a clean, reliable, and space‑smart upgrade.
