Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Hide your messy cords in this clever faux grass charging station. For media players, mobile phones and cameras.
Product Description
If you're a true geek, every type of portable device on the planet is probably vying for the valuable electricity at your home. Unfortunately all those gadgets make a big mess with their power adapters and cables while they suck up life-giving electrical juice. Now you can hide that charging cable disaster with scenic grass.
The Grassy Lawn Charging Station provides you with realistic artificial grass to cushion your gadgets while they charge. A compartment underneath hides all of the power adapters and cables. Simply run a standard extension cable into the bottom of the base, plug in all your power adapters, then snake the charging cables up through the grass. Voila! Your gadgets will think they're on a charging vacation.

Its cute but you need to get a power cord to go with it, and you will probably want one that is a surge suppressor. The problem is, most of those are just slightly too long to fit in this! I found this one on Amazon that is inexpensive and short enough; you will probably want to buy it at the same time.

Maybe I had grand ideas for what this "charging station" was going to be. Don't get me wrong, it is cute and funky, but it's definitely no more high tech than, literally, a plastic box with fake grass. The grass sits atop a grid that allows you to store and neatly keep the actual chargers for your various items beneath it. The white plastic box then just has a hole in the back that you have to feed a power cord (not included) through. Please note that you will need to buy a power cord separately. In order to charge your device and rest it in the grass, you have to poke your charger through the fake grass and connect.
I am not unhappy with this because I still think that it's a fun desk piece; I just don't know if it was worth the price because it's extremely rudimentary. I cannot imagine that this cost more than 10 cents to make, but you're paying for the ingenuity I suppose. I would give it higher stars if it came with the electric plug in the bottom to plug all of your device chargers into.

I had been considering buying this since I saw it on ThinkGeek. I love the look and concept, its elegant and simple. Then I realized there was no plug included. Paying 25 dollars for a white box with artificial grass is a bad buy. Supply the user with a built in 3-5 ac or usb hub at the bottom and I would happily spend double the asking price. Why buy something that will only work if you purchase another... seems backward.

Keep looking.
This is just a box and some fake grass. It doesn't do anything. It doesn't come with anything. Just a box and grass. Oh, and it's $20. Huge waste of money.
