Does this fall out of the outlet easily? I am concerned about 4 cords weighting it down.

No it does not. At least I have not had a problem and I use it with four cords.

It actually fits very tightly in the outlet. It also take only one plug outlet and does not cover the second outlet on the wall plate. It saves us from using power strips which can sometime become unsightly.

I'd think it depends more on the outlet itself than the Anker. The outlets in my apartment were all old and NOTHING would stay in them. I replaced the outlet and the Anker fits in snugly and has never fallen out.

not at all. it's well designed and all the usb cables fit in snugly. the adaptor also fits into the wall socket firmly. basically nothing rattles even with 4 devices attached. hope this helps.

I've got a lot of experience with loose outlet sockets. I just very gently twist each plug bar in opposite directions, so they are no longer parallel. It increases the pressure of the plug bar against the metal sides inside the plug so the higher friction holds it tighter in place. Don't twist too hard or you will break off the plug bar - just hard enough to put a slight twist in the bar.

I think it depends on the length of the cord. Since I had longer cords, I did not have a problem with this falling out of the outlet.

The top piece easily detaches, its a held by a magnet. I take it off only on hot days and throw it in the love box. I'm worried it'll mess up the wiring.

It won't fall out but it can damage your usb port on your pc as well as the wiring of the hub extender after some time. If you have the strong double sided tape, you can stick it to the front or side of your pc and plug it into the front to avoid that dangling. Thats what i did with mine

the cord where you plugin the adapter falls off and breaks to easily when it is in this position. I had 2 break off from 2 different orders.

Nope I have my laptop on my lap most of the time. It dangles from the side of my usb port. Have not had a problem with it falling out, It is very secure and I am really glad I bought one

yes, it only "sticks out" from the wall outlet about an inch. It's a great product, and I'm very happy with it.

It is not hard to manage the cord. It reminds be of using an upright vacuum cleaner, and not any heavier!

I would not recommend trying to support the weight of anything from the electrical plug/cord. The cords I received are quite tight on the female end, but the male end, (blades), were never designed to support weight. I have attached restraints to keep the 1 foot cords in place within an portable cabinet. I used plastic zip ties. In this manner, there is no additional weight placed on either the cord plug, or the outlet. There are companies that make retainers to prevent cords from pulling apart, but they are normally seen on construction sites where tools are being used repeatedly and the guys just pull the cord along with the tool. Mostly the cord is tied into a knot for this purpose. For the laptop power supply, I would try to extend it to either the floor, or another location to allow the supply cord to rest on. I hope this helps, and good luck!

It is the way you are thinking - in the bottom outlet it will cover the top outlet! It does have a socket outlet that works well. So you haven't lost anything.

There is a flat platform for the devices to sit so I don't know how you keep them from falling off. To reverse it the plug in part would fall out so it won't be the best choice to hang

Yes, I've never had any problems with the lamp falling over. It definitely can support the weight of the rest of the lamp.

I have never had a problem with the prongs folding up, if anything, the whole adapter might slide out of the outlet if your outlet is loose

the cord is attached to the charging unit, I don't think it is able to be detachable and therefore unable to lose unless you lose the entire unit

Yes, mine wobbles but has never fallen over. It charges fine and works great.

The base is mildly weighted. I don't have any issues with this lamp falling over. You power it on and off on the cord, anyway, so you really come into little contact with the lamp itself. The whole thing (sans cord) weighs a little less than a pound at 15.3oz (433g).

I have a hard time sometimes getting a hold on the drain to pull the plug but I relate it to the strength in my hands. Otherwise I don't have a problem. Hope that helps. Roxanne

It's around 4 or 5' and the cord detaches in the middle so you don't have to unplug from the wall and carry the heavy plug.
