- Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2025Size: 1 ftStyle: 16 AWG/13A/125VVerified PurchaseBought this because a new Toshiba microwave oven's cord was 6" too short. Bought the 1' cord, because it was enough to bridge the gap between the outlet & the microwave oven's cord. Purchased the Toshiba cord because the male end only used one outleft. (Some 3-prong extension cords have a 90 degree plug, which could obscure the other outlet.
Didn't take any stars off, because the extension cord works as advertised.

First and foremost, the build quality of this extension cord is excellent. The 16AWG wire gauge and sturdy construction give me confidence in its durability and safety. I appreciate that it is designed to handle a maximum current of 13A at 125V, ensuring that it can handle the power demands of most devices and appliances.
The 3-foot length is just perfect for my needs. It provides that extra bit of length to reach my devices without creating a tangled mess of cables on my desk. The black color also complements my workspace, and the low-profile plug fits easily into my power strips and outlets.
I find the connection to be very secure. The plugs fit snugly into their respective sockets, so I don't have to worry about accidental disconnections or power interruptions. The extension cord has maintained a stable connection, and I haven't experienced any issues with power loss or surges.
Additionally, I appreciate the flexibility and versatility of this extension cord. It's not just limited to use in my home office; I've also used it in other areas of my home to power various appliances and electronics. Its compact size and lightweight design make it easy to transport and store when not in use.
In conclusion, the cord has been a valuable addition to my setup, providing me with the extra reach and power I need for my devices. Its quality construction, secure connections, and user-friendly design make it a reliable and practical choice for anyone seeking a dependable power extension solution. I highly recommend this extension cord for its excellent performance and convenience.
