Great value for the price. Well built, light weight, and charges quickly
If you're a normal person who have 5 electronic devices that need to be charged when you travel, you'll need this.I had previously bought travel adapters from other brands, they all worked to some extends, but most of them were monolithic, bulky and heavy. And because they're heavy, when you plug them into wall sockets, they tend to wobble.Not this one.This thing is so compact and much lighter than I'd expected. I can't stress enough how crucial for it to be lightweight when you're on the road. I travel very often and it helps a lot.Even more, it is very well built and packaged, and came with a travel pouch so you won't lose a piece of two.The best thing about this is it charges really fast, much faster than the other ones I had before, even with multiple devices.I will definitely take it with me for my upcoming Asia trip.Pros:- Light weight, very modular and versatile- Rather cheap. A comparable product would cost around $40 at retail stores- Well built and packaged. Came with small pouch for travel- BEST: charges devices very fast.Cons: Nothing so far.

Solid device for travelers. The USB ports are most useful
This universal power adapter is a must have for any frequent international traveler. Whether you are on business or recreational travel, the last thing you want to worry about is that your electronic devices cannot be powered which can ruin your travel experience altogether. One time I attempted to charge my phone during an Asia trip without using a proper adapter which ended up with a big poof of black smoke.... setting my hotel room on fire wasn't exactly on my itinerary the last time I checked :)Unfortunately many hotels just don’t have the adequate conversion outlets you need. They sometimes would sell you one, but it's often overpriced, and would only have adapter for that country.This Catwood power strip solves this problem and delivers everything it promises.It has a good build quality and smartly designed. It comes with a compact travel case to hold all parts together neatly. It simply does the job reliably. My favorite feature is the two 2+ Amp built-in USB ports. This is ideal if you have multiple smart phones and tablets (either Android or Apple). With these USB ports you don't need to carry additional bulky power adapters.If you plan to do any international traveling, do yourself a favor and order one of these. That way you can focus on other more pleasant aspects of your trip, rather than power management.

A Bit More Expensive Than Other Options, But the Portability Makes it Worth the Cost
PROS: Extremely portable, global two-outlet power strip/surge protector and two USB global charging station; includes plug adapters for all common power outlets.CONS: NOT a transformer so be sure your equipment is dual-voltage(!); only attaches to wall socket horizontally so may be a bit of a struggle to fit in with other hotel room plugs; USB charging of devices on the slow side.CONCLUSION: A bit "spendier" than its competition, but the portability and flexibility makes it worthwhile for frequent travelers.

No problems while travelling worldwide for 2 years
This device was a real asset to have while traveling. My wife and I retired and spent two years traveling the world. We used this device every day to charge our phones, pads, camera batteries, and laptop. The USB ports are fast charging. The carry bag was handy for keeping track of all of the parts. We are leaving for South America in a couple of months and this device is going to be the first thing to get packed.

Perfect AC/USB combo unit for home use and international travel
At first, I was skeptical about buying from a relatively new brand. But this is the only AC/USB combo unit in the dimensions I want. So I gave it a trial. Unit quickly arrived in two days.The product works and looks exactly as advertised. No disappointment. It can charge my iPhone and iPad together at a fast speed. Plugs and base unit perfectly snapped on. No more unsafe socket over socket connection from now on. Recommend to buy. 5 stars!

Great for traveling.
Went to Fiji and used this convert which I think is perfect for traveling. I didn't take up much space in my luggage and was able to handle all my devices. Although I didn't test with more than 2 or 3 devices at a time. Its also very light weight.

Catwood's AU-22 portable power strip - Way to go!!!
Catwood's AU-22 gives the versatility of connecting/charging different devices (laptops, tables, cellphones, USB fan and light, etc.) to the power supply on the wall. As a frequent traveler, I found Catwood's AU-22 extremely useful in connecting at hotels, temporary offices, airport lounges, and coffee shops. The packing is compact to store inside my carry-on. I will buy a few units for my team members who are on the road most of the time.

Smart, convenient design
We've used this now to travel to both England and Germany. Very handy. Smart, convenient design, and the travel case makes it easy to throw in your bag and carry along.
