My original plan was to place this box behind my subwoofer to hide a Panamax power strip and some cables that littered the space. Unfortunately, the small box is too small for this purpose. Instead, I chose to use this box to organize the cable nest which lives in my daughter’s bedroom. The D-Line small cord organizer box does a fantastic job with her mess. I also have a cord chewing rabbit that will fry his little fury face off if allowed access to a nest of unsecured cables. First, the box is made up of hard plastic. The box supports a small power strip that fits on the bottom of the box. The cable organizer box is not bespoke for any one kind of power strip. Meaning, do not expect your power strip to simply snap into some holder at the bottom of the box. This is general purpose box that should work with a wide variety of small power strips. I also found that power strips with top facing outlets work well and power strips with side facing outlets do not work at all. You will want the larger of D-Line’s cord organizer box if you have a large power strip or a power strip with side mounted outlets. The organizer box has two openings on the back corners of the box and one along the top rear of the box. I found these well positioned to easily support the power strips power cord. The opening seemed natural enough for the power cord so as not to put any stress on the cord. It also gives me an opportunity to hide the cable between the wall outlet and the wall. The topmost cable route provides ample room to run many cables up and away from the power strip. For my purposes, I had a laptop power supply cable, a fan power cable, and an iPhone charging cable existing from the top. Any heat generated from the power strip or wall warts can easily escape from the box via the cable openings and through a series of vent holes along the top cover. Meaning, I am not worried about anything heating up due to poor air flow. The top cover is removable. It requires some force. You average two-year old should, may, probably will, but don’t count on it, find it difficult to open. It will definitely thwart the efforts of your average thumbless bunny. This also means the box will not fall apart if accidentally kicked, dropped, or poorly handled. The box itself is much nicer to look at than an ugly cable octopus. I can push the box up against the wall and hide the short power cable. And I can run the cables up the wall to the desk where, again, I don’t see them. The only downside to this box is that it is a lint and dust magnet. Other than that, it does exactly what it is supposed to do. Next, I’ll probably grab the larger of the two boxes to address my subwoofer cable mess.
