Cable management is always a challenge with a computer, entertainment center or a garage. Finding a solution that is simple and is able to handle a good amount of cables is important. This organizer meets the requirements for my needs. This comes in two sizes but I have the larger box in black. I wanted to fit a full power strip. This handles that with additional room to spare which is important for cooling and air flow as well. There are two large openings in the back for the cables. The box itself is easy to open and close. I have pets as well so keeping the cables out of the way and wont allow them to chew on it is important as well. So far so good and the animals are staying away from it. The only issue is it cannot be fastened to the wall or another mount without a custom solution. The box is sturdy but can move if the cables are pulled or the box is knocked. The pricing is similar to other solutions and I would purchase another one if needed. Overall this is a good product and I would recommend it.

If you are like most people, you have a power strip or two under your desk with tons of cords and wires going to it. It is most likely a very ugly and jumbled mess and quite an eyesore. D-Line has made just the product to cure this problem. It is a simple molded plastic box that is meant to conceal this mess of wires. The box itself is well made and very solid. It can definitely take the accidental kick being underneath your desk and still be unscathed. The box itself can easily fit a power strip, even one of the double-wide strips, with ease. There are 3 entry points on the back of the box to run cables into the box. There are 2 on the sides, and then one directly in the middle. This give you all possible places you would need to route cables into the box. The lid easily pops off, but also locks into place so you wont have to worry about it popping off. For those of you worried about air circulation around electrical devices that can get hot. This has you covered as well. Apart from the 3 large holes in the top and back to run cables into the box. The top also has tons of little holes on either side to allow a lot of airflow to make sure you won’t have any overheating issues. I put just a regular power strip in mine and didn’t have any problems fitting all my power brick in as well as any extra cable as well. I could see if you had one of the double-wide power strips you might run into problems if you have a really large wall wart to plug into it, there might not be enough room on the side of the box to prevent having to really bend the cable against the wall. Unfortunately, I didn’t have one of those double-wide strips to test it with though. Just be sure to do some measurements before buying to make sure you get the size that will work best for you. Overall, I love this box and it takes what used to be a big eyesore under my desk and wraps it up in a nice neat inconspicuous package! I highly recommend it!

I chose the D-Line Large Cord Organizer Box in white. It's large enough to fit my 8 socket power strip and keeps the cords organized nicely. The white works best for my situation since I wanted to use it against a white baseboard and eggshell wall. It looks nice, much better than the power strip with 8 cords attached. The cords to my devices in my power strip route two different directions and were like spider legs on the floor making vacuuming around them a hassle. With this organizer the cords are all kept routed to the back along the wall cleaning up the area and makes vacuuming around and under much quicker, easier and safer for the devices and the cords themselves. This would help with keeping cords and power strips out of the reach of pets and small children as well. It is well vented so any heat generated can escape. There are no sharp corners to worry about. I like that these come in different sizes and colors to choose from. Ease of use, safety, organization, options. I'd recommend it to anyone.

A great solution for those of us who want to keep things organized and neat! This large sized version easily fits a long surge protector with 8+ outlets to be placed inside with plenty of room for multiple charging blocks and adaptors. The unit is also tall enough where you can stuff extra cables inside whether that's the extra length from any cables attached to your surge protector but I also found that I can stash extra cables inside. I also appreciate the multiple holes on the back of the box which allows for cables to enter or exit at different directions depending on where your devices live. I was worried about heat build-up with multiple adaptors and power bricks being housed inside an enclosure but the vents on the cover seem to provide enough airflow to dissipate heat. My only complaint is that I wish it didn’t have the logo on the top cover. It’s the only thing that detracts from the actual goal of this in the first place - to keep things clean and organized. Overall a great product to stay tidy!

Like everyone, I've got a couple tangled web of cords power strips behind the TV and under a couple desks. I really liked the idea of getting it to look a little more organized and dust free. The D-Line Large Cord Organizer Box - Black does fulfill this pretty simple mission reasonably well, but there were a couple of issues. 1) it is big. on the plus side, it easily swallowed up the relatively wide 10-outlet power strip behind my TV, but once set up, I wasn't sure I liked the large box any more than it annoyed me to see the power strip 2) it doesn't feel durable FOR ME. If you just put your power strip and cords in the box and never touch it again, it may be OK, but at my house, we turn off wifi, routers and large electronics at night. the easiest way to do that is to turn off the power strip. That would mean I'd be opening and closing the box everyday and it just doesn't seem like the D-Line Large Cord Organizer Box - Black would likely stand up to that as the plastic is pretty thin and deforms pretty easily to the touch
