Would like to put in a multi device charging station/cord organizer. Lying sideways will it fit in confined space &amp; stay cool (in lieu of power strip)

I have never noticed it getting hot. I am not sure about confined spaces. I do like the quality and feel and convenience of a multiple usb port charger with a separate cord allowing charging in more convenient locations.

It depends on how many other heat producing electronics you have in there. It's really spacious and has rear holes for air and cables.

I keep my charger and cords in a separate bag. It sounds like the size of both your items might compromise the cushioning affect

I have mine permanently plugged into my car console so I don't mess with it much, but it seems to lay flat and doesn't kink like the cords do. Worth it for me since my others have gotten broken that way.

I don't have any heat issues with it but any electronics like this should have ample space for ventilation (I.e. don't cram it in a tight entertainment center)

No, it is not. It requires that you place the charger on a horizontal surface and set it on the cradle. This is one of the objections from other reviewers. Someone mentioned that the charging dock is about the size of a CD, which is true. However, the device does not sit vertically on it, but the intake pipe is oriented at an angle. This means that you must have more clearance around it that just for the charger.

It's pretty adjustable. I don't know your specific model so I can't say for sure, but it would have to be pretty big not to fit in this. As to keeping it plugged into the charger; again, I don't know your model. I haven't had any problem with that, I always have it plugged in when I'm using it. You need to futz with the cord a little to get it where you want it but it's not a huge pain, and certainly not impossible.

The one i have has a spot for AC power for those devices that need more power but its best for low power devices. cord on mine is 4in. approx.The slots are running parallel but share the 5v USB power so there will be a drop on power between all devices.

Not very well, I wouldn't recommend it. I have a separate zip pouch (2"x3") for the charger/cables

Yes, just flip it over and grasping the opening with your thumbs, you should be easily able to fit a surge protector cord in the opening. I am very happy with mine. Hope this helps.

As the others have stated, there are two other compartments, one on the side and one in the front that you can use to store the cords. I do wrap the cord around my blow dryer and it stays neat when stored in the blow dryer slot. For my flat iron and curling iron, I have purchased the cord clips from The Container Store and they work perfectly holding the cords together and lays neatly by or in the slot on the side. I also store my hair products and brushes in the organizer. It's been one of the BEST purchases I've ever made:-)!

Yes. :) I put mine horizontally, so the recharging cable is to the side. I don't think it's as stable if you put the iPad vertically portrait style though. I have an exact same one for my iPhone, they sit next to each other on my desk. Works great for me.

We bought one from another online store and the outlet needs to be vertical. (one on top of the other). Every plug we have is vertical in the entire house. You "could' use it but it defeats the purpose of holding two phones off the counter to charge. It should be flipable to accommodate horizontal plugs. Seemly would work fine. Just check your outlets.

Yes, it's directly in line with the outlet (straight back). It's not centered between the USB and the charger. I hope this helps. It works very well too.

The space is fairly shallow, allowing plenty of room to gather cords, but I do not feel a surge protector will fit.

It works wonderfully with plenty of space around it. It will get too hot in an enclosed area. Also, uses 110 plug and needs to stay balanced.

No it will not keep the cords fastened. The unit is not very tight fitting. I pulled on it a little too hard and it became separated. If left alone it stays together. We normally tie a loose knot with the two plugs and then connect them.
