★☆☆☆☆
Poor quality control - exploded on first use
Plugged one (from the 2 pack) in, plugged some stuff into it, turned it on, and its happy...
Plugged the next one in, flipped the switch and kaboom! Loud pop, sparks, and smells terrible (and obviously doesn't work).
I imagine they are the lowest bidder with typical suspect QA practices... Will probably stick with the major brands from now on.
