I own this product and have for almost nine months. It works as stated. The reason I'm writing this review is to counter the one star rating whose writer questions the lack of "UL rating." First, I question the motives of someone who rates an item without owning it. Second, I question the writer's intent when calling the TUV little known. Perhaps it is little known in the US, but it is the UL equivalent organization in Germany. And, after having lived in Germany, can tell you that TUV, if anything, is considerably more strict than our UL. I knew of TUV, but I also just Googled it, to refresh my memory. Obviously the one star rater didn't bother to check Google. At any rate, the only quibbles I have with this product is that the faceplate cover is more flexible that our standard plastic outlet covers and doesn't fit quite as well since it is only held on with the standard center faceplate screw. I also think it is a bit overpriced but until more manufacturers are producing them, that won't change. Minor complaints, this product works as advertised.

I dont really know who Bob from NJ is but he/she has left some falsified comments about this product on several sites to include the "How to Geek" site and Amazon. This product works wonderfully and it is labeled as Underwriters Listing Certified (UL) on the actually receptacle. If you to the site for [...] you can see that they list the unit as having a 5 star energy design. As for the low voltage and 120 voltage running in the outlet box well if you are really a Master Electrician then from the schematics on the How to Geek website you will see that the outlet itself is being connected to the existing electrical line no low voltage wires are running to it. Please dont add yourself titles your have not earned, and please dont mislead consumer with false information.

This thing is amazing! I can't wait until these are installed everywhere! I got this along with a recessed outlet mount, and i had to shave the sides down a bit, but it works perfectly!

U socket
I didn't realize how much I'd like this when I ordered it. Fast shipping service AND it works on my Mac stuff (which is always a question if it doesn't come from them)!
